you like MS Paint?
A funny little video mockumentary type of thing about the “design team” that made MS Paint. Enjoy! And have a good long weekend (if you’re not working, that is).

(link found on the Good Experience blog I read sometimes)
P.S. I actually do really like MS Paint. Most of the computer drawn flyers for my […]

“How does it know?”
In my line of work, I have found myself asking “How does it know?” a lot. It is generally during a debugging session, and some behavior is occurring and I’m not sure how the program knows to do that, but the program does. And it’s my job to find out what the program knows and […]

royal oak music theatre
On Wednesday night, Dan and I headed to the Royal Oak Music Theatre to see our ex-band-mate Adam’s band (Murder Mystery) play a show. For those of you who haven’t heard of this place, it’s a pretty big venue where pretty big name bands play. I found out that on Wednesday nights they do a […]

even with solid proof, i still cannot believe that this is for real
Everything about this license plate is just wrong, and stupid, from the desert camouflage, to using the World Trade Center (for Oklahoma?

argentinian nirvana fans?
One really weird thing about the name “the Low Hello” is that when I look at the hit stats for thelowhello.com, there is ALWAYS someone from Argentina doing a search for “hello, how low?”, the Nirvana lyric, and ending up at our site. Like totally different seeming people (in different cities, but mostly Buenos Aires, […]
