Accidental Entrepreneurs

Published August 3rd, 2006 in They Said It, Stolen Moments, Transformation and Noteworthy. 5 Comments

If you need serious proof of concept of the power of intention to manifest what you want in your life, look no further.
My name is Kyle MacDonald and I traded one red paperclip for a house.
Yet another one of those goofy ideas by accidental entrepreneurs that I wish I had thought of myself.
There is […]

Beware of Robot Kitten

Published June 9th, 2006 in Stolen Moments. 1 Comment

My friend Knutmo from uploaded a video to YouTube recently that is chock full of unbearable cuteness:
This is Robot, Matt Coats’ kitten. She likes Frontrow a lot.

Please partake with caution.

Tyger Tyger, Burning Bright

You will not regret the time spent watching Tyger, a stunning marriage of puppetry, animation and music that uses William Blake’s famous poem as a jumping off point, from the talented and much in-demand Brazilian artist/filmmaker Guilherme Marcondes. Go, now!

You light up my life

Afterglow is Andy Schulman, a one-man artistic visionary who decided one day to, as he describes it “make treasures out of trash”. That’s putting it simply. The treasures he was referring to are a growing collection of the most inventive, imaginative lamps and light fixtures we may ever see. Evolving in maturity and complexity with […]

Touched by his noodly appendage

I can’t believe I missed the catalytic posts about this on Boing Boing last year and all the resulting media coverage since then. Eh well… better late than neverly, I have finally found a religion I can get behind, Pastafarianism! Aside from the wonderful parody of creationism, a faith based on an invisible creature with […]

My dream car

Screw the expensive rims, underbody neon and oversized spoiler on your Hyundai… THIS is a ride worth pimping:
Ron Patrick is approaching the age of 50, a time when many men begin thinking about minutiae like pensions and second homes and third cars. But Patrick is far more interested in telling you why it is […]

In dreams, you’re mine all the time…

It’s been a while since I’ve had much time to spend catching up my favorite sites and friends’ blogs… so I totally missed the 10th anniversary one of my favorite comic strips, Slow Wave, by the talented Jesse Reklaw. I ordered his book Dreamtoons about 5 years ago. Jesse signed it and threw […]

About This Blog

Just another personal blog, wherein I bore you with what I've recently watched, listened to, read, digested, contemplated, observed, and experienced, and how cool it would be if I were anything like the person you think I am. I'm a beautiful and unique snowflake, just like everybody else.

  • Faster, Paris! Kill! Kill!

    TCM showed a couple of cult film classics from 1965 tonight, Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! and Mudhoney. One of the female leads in the latter bears a striking resemblance to Paris Hilton. I could picture her in a remake along with Nicole Ritchie, although neither is voluptuous enough for a Russ Meyer flick! #


  • I am not a spammer!

    I've been getting a lot of bounce back emails over the past few days. It appears that nyominx.com is getting joe jobbed—someone is sending out spam and putting fake email addresses with my domain in the "From" field. To top it off, I'm getting the same spam messages coming from other domains who I assume are also getting joe jobbed! The worst part is that there's really nothing I can do about it except complain and assure you that it's not originating from me. #


  • My current header image...

    ...is an homage to The Greatest Nancy Panel Ever Drawn. Marginally related: I was feverishly sick once while quite young and, so sick that I was hallucinating... At the foot of my bed, a tiny Nancy was chasing a tiny Sluggo (or maybe Sluggo was chasing Nancy, it's been so long I can't remember now) across my blanket with a stick, intent on giving a serious beating. I screamed, and my parents came running, but I never could really quite explain to them what had terrified me. #


  • Grrrrrrrr

    I updated my obligatory "this is my dog" page, now including a short sound clip (video soon to follow, hopefully). #
