NEIL PATRICK HARRIS THREATENED ME



This is a problem. Mostly because I think NPH is one of the more talented actors in Hollywood. Now all I can think of is some guy with nothing behind his eyes telling me if he wanted he could rip out my eyeballs. I'm getting ahead of myself here...let me back track. I'm out with a buddy of mine for his birthday a couple weeks ago and some people that we didn't know are there who just happen to be agents. Most of them were smaller, but the one dude looked like a NPH doppelganger if NPH worked out more and had a penchant for Killing. We were drinking and drinking and the more drunk this dude got the more he would throw these threats my way...Like.. begging me to hit him or the thing with the eyeballs. You get the idea. I was terrified mostly because I was pretty sure he meant it. NPH now scares me the way clowns do...They're supposed to be fun and cheerful, but they scare the crap out of most people.

LABOR DAY BLUES


I'm back from a 3 day break for only two working days till I'm off again and already I'm grinding my teeth. I don't know if I'm just a pansy or if I'm not made to work full time in an office or if I just need to lay off the caffeine, but I don't think artists or graphic designers or the unlucky people whatever you want to call my profession are made to work 8 to 5 on a weekly basis and not have any creative ownership to what they spit out. Eh.... I'm just complaining. sorry.

RELAX. IT'S THE PLAYGROUND


We're at the playground over the weekend and we decided to put Silas in the baby swing. He's a little small for it yet, but as long as you swing him slow he really likes it. We were there with a couple of friends of ours. We get to talking and not paying attention as all the swings were taken and I see a swing open up. I take Silas and walk him over to it... Some lady who looks like she's about ready to pull a knife on me reminds me that she was waiting with her child before us and there was a line. A LINE FOR THE KIDDIE SWING. There really wasn't a "line" per se, but this lady was waiting along with 4 other couples looking to get their child into one of the 3 swings at the yard and that's fine and we let her go first, but she was mad and it was silly. The kid doesn't even know where he or she is and doesn't give a shit if he goes first, second or 15th. It's just the parents that have no patience. Go figure.

OLD SPICE DUDE SOLD ME


I have to admit, these commercials are awesome. So awesome in fact that I have given in and tried their body wash. I think I feel sexier already. thoughts???

THINK OF THE POOR SNOWMEN


I'm not made for this heat. 100 degrees in September... WTF? I really really hope that global warming isn't real because having only two tolerable seasons is no way to live. I can't only take my kid out in the spring? He's not a Grizzly Bear I don't think. I know, I know, back to the Snowman. If things keep getting hotter and hotter all the snowmen will become extinct! Think of it, a world without snowmen. It's just awful...that's why I'm setting up a save the snowmen foundation. Your help would be greatly appreciated. We take credit cards.

STEVE JOBS SELLS SNAKE OIL



When in god's name did we stop taking people to task over crazy declarations? Hey Steve!, the ipad is magic? Does it cast spells? fly? Funny that it just looks like a more cumbersome iphone. Yesterday they just announced an apple tv revamped. Tv's shows for 99 cents. I get tv for free with my cable subscription thanks though. Is it just me or does he and apple lie as much as a politician? I know it sounds like I hate apple but it's only partially true. I just hate how Steve and apple are veering away from their creative exploits and are completely immersing themselves in consumption media burning whatever creative bridges they had along the way. ie. Adobe. I f*&$in NEED the relationship with photoshop and illustrator to be strong. Apple doesn't give a crap... This is a problem. I might be switching back to Microsoft....

ANDROID PET


Let's just get out of the way the whole apple vs. google fight and parse the political digital divide and look at the adorable mascot for android. If you've seen the Asian commercials for android you would know what I'm talking about, but because I am an android fanboy I'm guessing you have not seen them..... Also because they are not broadcast in America and I don't have any friends over seas.... that I know about. Anyway, I want one. I want a little pet android. I don't think I've wanted a fictitious pet this much since Flight of the Navigator. Oh. I'm doing this site again, I'm just getting a little bit more free time now that my kid is almost 9 month old. I hope you enjoy the posts. Thanks
