- Renovation Voyeur - Beyond wristwatches, bags and office designs, one thing I love is before and after photos…especially of remodeling projects. A strange interest? Probably. But seeing the hidden potential in things excites me. This site showcases remodeling projects of apartments and houses. Now to just find someone to fund my own efforts…[via]
- How Creativity Is Killing the Culture - From the article, “Just create, says the world. Go ahead and line up for American Idol or America’s Got Talent or whatever. You can do it! And while you’re at it, why not fill the web with your poetry, videos, art, musings, and every little snippet of creative detritus you can muster. And don’t let anyone say it’s wrong!” Agreed, and mea culpa.
- Long distance beer runs - It’s a sad truth, but while my parents were on vacation last week in Maryland, I actually called to ask if they could visit a little beer store there to pick up a six-pack or two of Smuttynose Pumpkin ale. There’s something entirely wrong with having your parents go on beer run for you. But by tonight, I’ll be drowning my guilt in a pint (Yes, I’m driving to pick it up. Sheesh, I’m not that bad)
- Virtue Desktops - This nifty little app for OS X does what will soon be incorporated into the next release of the OS: spaces. And seeing as how my company likely won’t pay to upgrade, I’ll suffice with this. I now have three separate desktops (design/development, entertainment, communication) that I can flip between with a mouse gesture. It’s made my life so much better.
- Photos of Juneau - My friend Andrew who’s doing service work in Juneau for a year finally posted some photos of where he lives, where he hikes and the views from his house. I love gaining perspective of where people are, so when I talk to them I can picture what they’re surrounded by.

Did You Know?
Don't Chug Warm Ale
While studying in London one summer, I got to drink out of a really unique pint glass--it was a stein that was literally a full yard tall. Too bad someone called for a "waterfall," as I was drinking a local warm ale.
