I need to see more art like this on the streets. Brings a smile to my day.
Haha! This is great. That’s why I have Squandrous for blogging cool stuff I find, and Eloquation to share my original content.
Sleep: everybody does it, nobody admits it
Back when I was in high school and college, there were several bad behaviors that were often worn as badges of honor by my fellow students: not studying for an exam, pulling an all-nighter, getting so drunk that you can’t remember being taken to the hospital for alcohol poisoning, hooking up with people you don’t know, etc.
Now, as we’ve all grown up, most of us have seen the folly of our ways and would hardly brag and boast about many of these immature activities. Except for one:
Being able to function on little-to-no sleep is still seen as a noble trait. I think it’s absolutely ridiculous.

Reflections on the new job
There’s a PC at my desk that runs Windows 2000. On top of that, I have to use Internet Explorer 6 as my web browser. (I’m told this situation will be remedied quickly.)
At around 10am every day, I shed a few tears and weep for the loss of the use of my Macbook Pro. Then I get over it and get back to work.
I come home and hug my Mac every day, and say a special prayer of thanks to God for creating Steve Jobs.
Yes, only two whole days at a new job and all I can think of is Apple products.
Forget Tumblize, hire Bill Israel
I know a lot of people have been weighing in on the launch of Tumblize and the fact that they think they can get away with charging $999 for a Tumblr design.
I’m not going to say anything about the people of Tumblize, because I don’t have any personal experience with their work.
I have, however, worked with Bill Israel, who helped me develop the current design for Squandrous.com. I love it. What’s more important, I loved working with Bill.
Bill was eager to learn, adapt to my needs, and make sure that every single one of my desires (with regards to the web design, of course) was fulfilled. And he charged me a fraction of what the guys at Tumblize charge.
If you’ve got the money, I’ll let you spend it however you want to spend it. I will recommend, however, that you contact Bill Israel if you want the best quality for an excellent price.
I want to build this as my home office one day. When, of course, I own a home large enough to build this in.
