It’s very strange when you see a connection with the media around you, a cohesive theme or pattern that seems to be underlying in the world around you. This is the case with two videos I’ve watched recently with one theme in particular, “Why?”. Realizing this pattern has made me change the way I see [...]

Last night riding my bike home from a party proved to be a fun and challenging task. I was accompanied by my friend Jordan R. as we traversed the dark and lonely roads from Harrison to Mamaroneck at 2:30 AM. As I took a sharp turn, the front wheel betrayed me and decided to turn [...]

Do you often find yourself having nightmares about: Holding down the space bar and not being able to drag when you’re surfing the web? Trying to explaining for the millionth time what CMYK stands for? Loosing your custom collection of filters and brushes? Lined paper not having rulers on the top and side? CTRL+Z not [...]

So I sit in front of my computer playing around with ideas for my new business card and I’m really debating adding one of those scannable “Quick Response” codes, similar to the ones on prescription drugs and postage. The advantage of doing this, is clients and friends with compatible phones will be able to quickly scan [...]

Ok, so I almost stopped myself from posting this one as I realized the irony of the story being in an ALL CAPS blog. But it was too damn funny to pass up. Sibuna comments: BREAKING NEWS WE BROKE THE SHIFT KEY. MORE NEWS AT !! via Gizmodo

It was extremely satisfying, finding that first hidden cache behind the grave of Alithea Gedney. There was 3 of us as we searched through what are the remains of an old stone wall that encircles the Gedney Cemetery near I95. Geocaching is a high tech treasure hunt where using GPS devices you must find hidden [...]

It seems like whenever I go out I spend half the time trying to communicate with friends, cutting down my partying time. This Halloween, I was overburdened trying to give directions to friends, comparing parties and trying to tweet for those far away (ahem, Jordan). It was the first time where I had half the [...]

Ladies and gentlemen, get ready to laugh your asses off. This is a hilarious PSA brought to you by SIIA about software piracy in 1992. Watch in amazement how ridiculous we used to dress and more importantly the use of floppy disks, where we had the capability of storing a whopping 1.4 megabytes! The PSA [...]

1. Back in my day, we only needed 140 characters. 2. There used to be so much snow up here, you could strap a board to your feet and slide all the way down. 3. Televised contests gave cash prizes to whoever could store the most data in their head. 4. Well, the screens were [...]

“You have summoned the fail-whale!” The sad thing about it, I still like to consider myself a Twitter….sigh.

Here’s a funny image as to what would happen on Twitter during a zombie outbrake.

Stereogum has put together an amazing compilation in tribute to Björk’s album Post. They have asked the bands Liars, Dirty Projectors, No Age, High Places, Atlas Sound, El Guincho, Final Fantasy & Ed Droste, Evangelicals, Xiu Xiu, Pattern Is Movement, Bell, White Hinterland to create their own renditions of Björk’s tracks. These are all original [...]

I flipped on the news today (yes, my actual television, not sure why) and the big story was Craigslist gone wrong. Someone placed an ad on Craigslist saying that anything at a home in Jacksonville, Oregon was up for grabs. People responded, and carted away most of the belongings of resident Robert Salisbury. He arrived [...]

Thank you for welcoming me from a long day at work with such joy. You thought no one would hear you. You thought no one would see you, but I was present and truly, it scared the shit out of me. Thank you for letting out the biggest fart out your window as you searched [...]

As if x-mas wasn’t close enough, office Max has a pretty damn cool game where you put your face on a dancing elf and watch it dance. Great time waster for those lame afternoons at work: www.elfyourself.com

My friend’s band just recently released their new album “The Musician” and they have used one of my pictures for the cover. The band, Looking Glass Wars is an alternative indie rock band from Westchester NY. Brandon, their singer is a good friend of mine that I met years ago while designing a website for [...]

I’ve been meaning to update my blog for months now and finally got around to it. As you can see I changed the header image to match the season better. That picture was taken back 2003-04 I can’t quite remember, it’s a street near where I live. I added a music player dubbed “Potatoine Player”, [...]

Is it just me or is Facebook getting a bit too crowded? Ever since they opened its doors the public and with the addition of their 3rd party apps it seems like flocks of MySpacers and migrating to Facebook. It’s great but the site but I feel like MySpacers and Facebookians come from two different [...]

Listening to Richard Cheese a while I was trying to find other funny/ridiculous song covers by other artists, here are the best 3: The first one is by Avril Lavigne covering “Chop Suey” by System of a Down. It’s not really funny, more like…pathetic. Second one is by Alanis Morissette covering Fergie’s “My Humps”. Saved [...]

I was trying to think about what I enjoyed the most about a cold morning on my way to work. Here are a few things that just popped into my mind: Holding that warm coffee cup, steaming endlessly while I wait on the station for the train. Watching strangers awkwardly huddle together without touching or [...]

Shhh….don’t tell the RIAA but I have been ceaselessly listening to Manu Chao’s newest album La Radiolina, set to come out early in September. The album is a bit watered down and the music has become very repetitive and similar to previous albums except for a few songs that are more rock influenced ala Mano [...]

Ahh, the perils of our daily routines.

Meet William Kamkwamba. At age 15 he built a windmill entirely from scrap parts, generating enough electricity to power his home in rural Malawi, one of the poorest countries in Africa. His personal blog details the steps day-by-day with pics.read more | digg story

Why don’t we get any Japanese channels here in the US?! If all they had was shows like this I would never leave the house.

That’s the same exact question I have been asking myself. It has been way too long since my last post, but the truth is I barely have the time to keep up. I wish I didnt have to sleep in order to do the millions of things I need to get accomplished. In other news, [...]

Now here is a gem of a find. A small collection of creative doodles and answers to test questions. Relive those agonizing hours you spent as a kid taking all those damn tests whose knowledge you never use in your everyday routines.

So lately my blog has be plagued with spammed comments, it got to a point where I had to close the comments completely. So until I fix this you will have to register in order to comment. Annoying yes, I hate it too. Damn spam, it was also crowding my mail accounts.

Well, it has been…what months? since my last post, yeah it’s been a while. I am not going to explain my absence but rather talk about the future. 2007 is a few days away and its time for a new blog, completely redesigned (simplified) and much more content. Ok, well that’s it, I’m gonna keep [...]

So as you can see I have finally begun to customize the blog. It’s been a little slow since there are several CSS files I have juggle between. I got a good understanding of how the site is organized which will help me a lot when making changes to the looks. I am still not [...]

I couldn’t stop laughing today, my smaller male cousin was sitting on the couch next to me as we played Halo and he started to complain something about his legs “Ouch my legs, OUCH!”. We had just played a rigorous soccer game and his legs were cramping up, both of them. “Ouch! it’s like I’m [...]

Ok, so its been what? 4-6 six months since my last post? 2 blogs later and after hundreds of posts written, I am back with a new blog. Why did I stop? two simple reasons: 1. Lack of time 2. Lack of interest. I had been posting on blogger previously but I found it so [...]
