  • Relatively rich
    "At one time we worked hard so that someday we wouldn't have to. Today, the more we earn, the more we work, since the opportunity cost of not working is all the greater." Isn't this crazy? How do we re-educate ourselves to settle for quality over quantity?

  • Welcome to The Postal Store
    Did you know you could buy stamps online? I wonder how much the shipping is.

  • Net mob search for iPhone girl's identity - iPhone Insider - Digital Life
    I kind of think it's cute that you get to see the factory workers that built your expensive phone. Helps that she's good-looking, I guess. It would be sad if it was some malnourished two year old with blisters all over his hands.

  • Emotionally}Vague: A research project about emotion, sensation and feeling.
    What colors people associated with anger, joy, fear, sadness and love. This will be very useful.

  • Back me up on this one Lemon on Flickr - Photo Sharing!
    "It's not a Lemon Party without old Dick!" Hahaha.
  • Democratic Stuff.com - Emo for Obama Photo Button - 2 1/4"
    I WANT THIS.

  • YouTube - Terminator 2 Sweded: Low Budgment Day (6-minute)
    Fucking brilliant. Love the T-1000 music, the mushroom cloud and John's general emo-ness. It's so beautiful.

  • Barack Obama on Japanese TV | Japan Probe
    I don't have the words to describe how I feel about this impersonator. Mostly, I'm just in shock.

  • johnaugust.com » Shouldn’t I get credit for the outline?
    Interesting view on taking credit for the outline of a screenplay. We yearn for fame and recognition but that can blind us from the bigger picture.

  • McSweeney's Internet Tendency: Footnotes, Endnotes, and Parentheticals That Cost Me Marks on My Thesis.
    (tags: humor)
  • A Beautiful Day in the Reneeborhood: Another Election Post
    "Why did the McCain camp/Palin fam release a statement that they are proud of the daughter's decision to keep the baby? Does this acknowledge the fact she had a choice?"

  • The Joker Action Figure | Abduzeedo - graphic design | design inspiration | design tutorials
    Amazing facial work on this. I'd love to see one in the purple costume.

@ Relatively Rich - I dunno, this seems more like what should be intuitive: if you want to be rich, you’ve gotta work for it. Moves away from the old ‘landed gentry’, i’m-rich-coz-my-daddy-was-rich inequality.

This site was hacked together with TextMate and Adobe Fireworks. I can't even remember how many re-designs I've been through and I never bothered to keep screenshots. It's kind of nice just to leave things in the past instead of archiving it forever in a permanent digital space. Keepsakes are overrated. Powered by Wordpress; hosted by Dreamhost.
