Spotted this guy on the way to the car from work. Actually, to be more accurate he spotted me. It was kind of a surprise to be walking past a tree and suddenly realize that part of the trunk is watching…
He eventually decided that I wasn’t a threat, climbed down, and started advancing on me slowly, probably thinking that the camera was some novel method of dispensing food.
Then he was overcome by a bout of itching…

When our office moves, we’re likely to be changing names. It’s got something to do with re-imaging our identity, brand freshening, name brain-space expansion, or some similar corporate-speak claptrap that I don’t necessarily buy into. On the other hand, it does mean that I get to have fun coming up with different logos. This particular one goes with a name change choice that we’ve since had to discard, mostly because there’s too many companies already out there with names that are awfully close to “Blue Media.”

For all you Akira Kurosawa fans out there, it’s “Throne of Blood” – the home game!

My office will be moving in the next few months. We’re heading to a much nicer place, more centrally located for our clients, easier to find and more publicly visible.

Upgrading your house is so much easier in the Kingdom of Loathing. None of this messing around with drywall and cement board. No inconveniently placed plumbing. Just grab a decorative fountain, a set of windchimes and the Feng-Shui for Big Dumb Idiots book, and tah-DAH!
That’ll make sense for about three people out there… Ah well.

There are some times when I really like driving a small car… This morning, for example, I wound up with the last parking spot in the lot because all the other cars that were circling around were big SUV type things that wouldn’t fit.
On the other hand, sometimes it can be a pain. Especially if you need to haul heavy things. Right now, I’ve got the tiles, mortar, grouting and other gear for the bathroom floor in the back of the bug, and it weighs a ton.

I have NO idea why I thought of this… Something to do with logo design or something.

Have I sung the praises of GraphicConverter lately? Because if I haven’t, then I’m long overdue. It’s possibly the coolest shareware graphic conversion and editing program out there for the Mac. Without Graphic Converter, I’d still be lurking around in Minnesota, working on the first days’ pictures for the Webcast.
