Took me long enough to get around to upgrading, but now that it’s all done (painlessly, I might add) it feels safer to update here.

I really miss Nellie and her soft puppy fur, I wasn’t sure that I would. I hear she is even bigger now and her coat is changing. Sometimes I talk with her on the phone and she tells me secrets about the cats. She is a leonberger, a German Lion Dog, and thusly the ruler […]

Over on my Flickr group, Robots: technology + pop culture, member k.Akagami has been been sharing photos of his cute ASIMO toy. Today mini-ASIMO showed up with a can of coke which appears to be using one of the Designer Barcodes I mentioned in an earlier post.

An insincere and evil friend is more to be feared than a wild beast; a wild beast may wound your body, but an evil friend will wound your mind.

Steve and I are about to take off for a signing at a comic shop in Yaletown. Meanwhile, I’m still on a fangasm high from the premier issue of Adam Warren’s Livewires miniseries from Marvel. Warren’s got a genre all of his own, cyberpop, filled with fun technobabble, hot ‘bots and pop culture dorkiness. It’s […]

The lovely tokidoki updated to version 3.0 a few days ago, gorgeous as always and the new NINJA CUPID game is aces. While exploring the update I noticed the webshop (which sells mainly tees) seems to follow a lot of the same layout concepts of other trendy t-shirt vendors. Seeing as I’ll be constructing […]

I’ve been struggling with the recent betrayal of someone I thought to be a close friend. Unsure of what to make of it or how to react I think I will look back to the original betrayer: Judas Iscariot. I’d like to stop walking around with this knife in my chest and just let […]

In a follow up to yesterday’s cadaver barcodes is Design Barcode, Inc. which has developed unique barcodes that have a more interesting and stylish look to them than existing barcodes on today’s products. I find the work reminiscent of the stencil community which has used barcodes as a design staple for some […]

In an effort to standardize what makes a crime particularly heinous, a group at New York University has been developing what it calls a depravity scale, which rates the horror of an act by the sum of its grim details.

Your government already knows that the zombie threat is real and they’re going to do something about it.

I think I would be horrified if someone tried to strike up a conversation with me through a puppet at a night club, but according to Don Diebel “The Puppet Method” works in attracting single ladies.
You don’t just have to use the “Puppet Method” in nightclubs to meet and attract single women. You can use […]

He painted a beautiful blue robotgirl for me with acrylics which now stands near my “robotgirl shelf” in the living room. View the work in progress set […]

Failing finding an Electra Cy Girl (at a price that’s not insane) Steve has bought me a flickr one year membership for giftmas! I’m going to start uploading some of my old favourites from my iPhoto library, put together some photo sets with Organizr, and get the Still Not Perfect Flickr Gallery up and running. […]
