Contrary to popular belief I’m only 52% geek!
korean artist jeongmee yoon’s ‘pink and blue project’ was inspired by her daughter. she would only wear pink and buy pink toys. she found this to be a common theme in korea, the us and around the world. when photographing girl’s in their world of pink, she realized that boys shared the same phenomenon except in a different hue: blue. the objects are arranged in the child’s room and photographed in a square format. jeongmee yoon was born in seoul and lives in new york.
Here is the most amazing intro for a skate video ever!
If you haven’t seen the Lakai Fully Flared video, it is something worth checking out. The Direction and Art Direction are really phenomenal and even if you aren’t into skateboarding, I can’t imagine anyone not being entertained by it……watch the whole thing…..its good for you!

Great Post from a news blog…..
The high court of the United States came to a 6-3 decision to give the Nobel Peace Prize to George W. Bush instead of Al Gore in an unprecedented move, because he deserved it more. Al Gore was very emotional that his political plan to exaggerate the truth in hopes of gaining popularity and money was crushed. Bush was content with the decision. He said at least now we can concentrate on saving people from war and other conflict, rather than placing our energy worrying about saving the planet from exaggerated claims.
No, George W. Bush was not awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, but should Al Gore have won the award? This question needs to be raised in response to Justice Burton stating that Gore’s praised documentary was found to contain nine inconvenient untruths. Yes, that is correct, he exaggerated facts to win the Nobel Peace Prize. It should be noted that Al Gore’s mansion uses more than twice the electricity in a month that the average household uses in a year! Yes, this is the man who is leading the fight against global warming. On the other hand, President George W. Bush, uses geothermal heat pumps to heat and cool his crawford ranch, which uses about 25 percent the energy that traditional heating and cooling systems use.
Al Gore, the top gun against golbal warming, also travels in a fuel inefficient jet. It has been reported that Gore traveled in a fuel inefficient jet from Nashville to San Francisco and then traveled in a non-hybrid, Lincoln from San Francisco to Camarillo. That adds up to an amazing 55,000 pounds of carbon!! To put this in perspective you could travel to San Francisco from Nashville in a station wagon 15 times to match the damage that Al Gore did to the planet. Sean Hannity found that there are 112 commercial alternatives that Al Gore could have used that would have been more environmental friendly. Why wasn’t this headline news? George W. Bush shouldn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize for his attempts against Global Warming, but would he be any less qualified than Al Gore?
I recently came across this site, FreeRice.com, which I thought it is very nice and creative. It is nice because you can learn vocabulary and help end the world hunger. The idea is very creative. This is how it works: you go to FreeRice.com and play their vocabulary game, for each question answered correctly 10 grains of rice will be donated by the sponsors to help people living in poverty. It is a win-win situation - you get to play the game, FreeRice get the traffics, advertisers get their exposure, and people get the free rice. If you like the idea, please help to spread out the word. For more details, please read their FAQ page.

So we have this little coffee shop half way between our home and my office. Needless you say I’m there at least once a day and feel kinda like this comic. But its cool living in this small town………..i can go to this coffee shop just about any time during the day and see some one i know there and sometimes sit down for a chat. I’m looking at my trash can right now full of coffee cups from that coffee shop and one post-it note.
