Apple Makes My Pants Tight

Tuesday, August 31st, 2004

Looky looky at the new iMacs. Talk about a sweet looking machine. I may have to take a trip down to the Apple store to see one in person. I was wondering what the new design was going to look like – I figured it would be some variation on the half melon version that [...]

Sober George Bush: Can You Tell The Difference?

Tuesday, August 31st, 2004

There are a lot of theories about why George Bush acts so stupid most of the time. Remember that “Fool me once, shame on me, fool me twice….ummm….” bit? Some people think he’s dealing with a crippling diet coke addiction and the aspartame is what’s making him suffer memory loss. Others say that he’s on [...]

Mobile Laundry

Monday, August 30th, 2004

This evening, in at attempt to avoid turning on the tv and watching the convention and becoming convulsed with rage, I decided to get caught up on my laundry. Yesterday I saw a guy from my building sitting out in the concrete garden outback reading a book while he waited for his laundry to finish [...]

Central Park Protest/Tanning Salon

Monday, August 30th, 2004

Yesterday afternoon I spent a couple hours hanging out with the protestors in Central Park. After the massive peaceful march against George Bush that wove its way across the city and past Madison Square Garden, many of the marchers headed up to the Great Lawn to continue to party. Surrounded by the ever present police [...]

Monday Morning In a Police State

Monday, August 30th, 2004

Well, kids, the RNC is here is all their glory (sic) and the one thing I have to admit is that it made my commute easier this morning. It isn’t often that you can jaywalk on 5th Avenue in the morning without getting run over by about three thousand cars. The massive police presence on [...]

A Week in Protest

Friday, August 27th, 2004

The last time I went to a protest was in November 2000. My friend Charlie and I showed up for a psuedo-organized protest against the presidential election fraud on a cloudy Saturday morning in Times Square. We pushed into the metal corral along with a few hundred other people and spent a very entertaining hour [...]

I Got Your Empowerment. Right. Here.

Thursday, August 26th, 2004

You know I’m having a great work week when I post a lot about my job. I just had my annual review, which was pretty much what I expected, and overall pretty good. What can I say, I am the best employee in the world. Oh yes I am.
Anyway, one of the sections of the [...]

Dirty, Dirty Templates

Thursday, August 26th, 2004

As you may recall, a while back I wrote about the more conservative members of the marketing team on my project getting up in arms over a hot, pulsating, sexy shoulder. Well, these people are at it again, this time telling me that a template I designed for distribution is promoting scandalous behavior:
Client: Um, we [...]
