More Bunnies
February 22nd, 2008Posted another installment of Two Bunnies and a Duck today. This new one was done in ink. The lines are darker, making the words easier to read — but I don’t like drawing in ink as much, and the results came out wobbly looking. Back to pencil for the next one. I have several weeks’ […]
Tennis Injury
January 4th, 2008Today I invited my parents over to the house for lunch and to give the Wii a try. We played a few games of Wii Sports Bowling and they, of course, had a blast. Before leaving, my mom — an avid tennis buff — wanted to give tennis a spin. We were playing a game […]
TV, Kitty, TV
December 25th, 2007Today I take a respite from the holiday to share a byproduct of playing around with your new Christmas toys. Christopher got me my very own digital camera, one which even includes an option to record short movies. I turned the camera on and shot a pan from our TV set showing a Mercury Meltdown […]
A Merry Mix
December 12th, 2007Joyful tidings — the Scrubbles.net Holidays 2007 Collection is ready for your enjoyment! To be honest, I’m not too big on Christmas music. I hate all those songs that you hear every year redone over and over again. No matter who does it, “The Little Drummer Boy” is a big bore and if I have […]
Putting the ‘Ho’ in Ho, Ho, Ho
December 7th, 2007Things I worked on this week:
Searched in vain for healthy foodie gifts for my clients, only to settle on overpriced cookies.
Spent two hours at Borders looking for gift ideas and wound up buying a single cookbook from the bargain shelves. Most of my relatives are not “book” people, unfortunately.
Put in a printing order for holiday […]
A Mii for Every Mood
November 9th, 2007It’s been a few days since the Wii arrived, so now I can safely say that I love it. Although we’ve been logging some gameplay on the console, I have to confess that I’ve spent the most time on the Mii Channel, where you can create little avatars in the spirit of a virtual paper […]
The Search Is Over
October 20th, 2007What’s your opinion on videogames and patience? The culmination of months of saving has finally happened — I’m getting a Nintendo Wii! It’s mind boggling that, 11 months later, those things are still hard to come by (unless you’re willing to pay $100 more on eBay, which I’m not). Not a fan of camping out […]
Key West with Matt & Christopher
October 14th, 2007Well, it took a week, but the little website I made documenting our trip to Key West is finished. What else is there to say about the trip? It was enjoyable, despite the hot and muggy weather (I brought a pair of jeans but never wore them). The island is about as laid back and […]
39 and Lovin’ It
October 8th, 2007Today was my 39th birthday. Since I won’t have a Father’s Day or wedding anniversary, it’s the only date-exclusive holiday I have — and I’m grabbing it for all it’s worth. To paraphrase a famous cliché: I’m not getting older, I’m getting better. The celebrating started last Saturday when I received a mailed envelope of […]
Vacation All I Ever Wanted
September 28th, 2007Gonna be taking a small break here. Posting will resume later next week.
Manga Carta
September 26th, 2007I had a bit of a deja vu moment while paging through the Geekipedia supplement of the latest Wired magazine. To illustrate the section on manga comics, they scanned a detail from the cover of the 28th and final Rurouni Kenshin volume — which I designed! I am so intimately acquainted with that artwork that […]
Horse Mosaic Finished, Yay
September 22nd, 2007Here’s to art projects — even the ones that turn out differently than expected. The ambitious bead mosaic of a horse’s head which I first started last spring is finally finished! Head over to my flickr set to see how the project went along, step by step. Now the big question is how does one […]

Princess Molecule, originally uploaded by agitprop.
Okay, I’m in a bit of a tizzy since I narrowly missed getting a Tim Biskup “Princess Molecule” signed print like the one seen here. One was listed on eBay, but the auction […]
Big Fat Link Log 2
August 22nd, 2007Looking back, it’s been a year since I posted My Big Fat Link Log with the intent of an annual refresh — so it’s high time to do an update. So in case you were wondering what I waste my precious daytime hours on while I should be working, here you go. Surprisingly I got […]
White on White Books
August 19th, 2007We love our cat Eero. Even so, she’s fond of getting into places she shouldn’t be — like the five foot high shelf in our living room. To deter her I got a little book holder and filled it full of books with white, off-white and beige jackets to take up most of the shelf […]
