All Things Chill

Coooooooool! I saw it first on Kevin’s page here. It looks so real. Take a look @ more cloning pics and read Richard’s instructions too!

Same concept as before: Find a website, make some combinations and wax poetic. I chose Banana Republic: The standard for many lost sheep young professionals. Here’s my pick for this week:

Tonal Paisley Tie | $59.50

Graph-Check Premium French Cuff Shirt | $68.00
Besides outfitting 1/2 of Manhattan, the Banana Republic has been known to [...]

LOL. Welcome to Windows Vista. Prepare yourself! I haven’t been keeping up with the Vista news, since I know the whole world will be receiving a Balmer Blitz before it comes out. The ‘Vista’ modifier isn’t as bad as everyone thinks, I actually like it a lot. It’s a good [...]

You know her. You saw her the second you walked through the cloud of smoke. The one source of light from an otherwise dimly lit space. She’s bending backwards and forwards, jumping up and down just to make everyone happy. She’s caught you eye and sadly raised the bar for every [...]

Flash, my gateway drug into web design, is ready for an update. Flash 8 (I hope it’s a tentative title), will be taking a big leap and upgrading their once laughable video integration to compete with the big boys. Writeup taken from Paul Festa @ CNET:
Macromedia is expected to announce the latest version [...]

NEWS FLASH **Pharrell Williams Revisits The ’80s With ‘Voltron’ Movie ** NEWS FLASH
Wow. I had to adjust myself in a major way after reading that. Header image taken from here. Here’s what the brainwashing machine MTV had to say about it:
You already know Pharrell Williams is obsessed with the sounds of the [...]

From ARSTECHNICA *ahem wink wink* It’s a fake computer render, but I would buy it if it was thinner. And if it played the latest games by game manufacturers. And if it had dual analog sticks. And 1 more screen. And if it had bluetooth. And if it came [...]

I made dinner for the band + Ann yesterday @ Jorge’s place. We caught the sunset, had a macho fire burning, drank some beers and chilled out to this unseasonably cool weather. Here’s the recipe for the main course:
Grilled Chicken and Asparagus in a Roasted Garlic Plum Tomato Cream Sauce Over a Bed [...]

I love tea. It’s calming effects have kept me running on chill for most of my life. You won’t see any bags in my cupboard any longer, it’s loose-leaf only. It’s a te(a)dious (pun intended) process which requires almost 100% attention and a lot of hand holding. The Gamila Company has [...]

Thank goodness it’s raining. Maybe it’ll finally cool off the the Chi and rid us of all this infernal humidity.

Incubus – Echo
There’s something about the look in your eyes
Something I noticed when the light was just right
It reminded me twice that I was alive
And it reminded me that you’re so worth the [...]

I know you’ve already seen this pic already, but it’s currently one of the many pics featured on Open Source Radio for an online show on Miles Davis in about 30 mins (7pm EST). They also have a new Flickr group too. I just thought it was worth mentioning. Maybe I don’t [...]

Caribou Coffee. Friends. 3 Laptops. Gary: Toshiba + Sociology homework + Iced skim mocha, no whip. Jason: Vaio + Piles of house option docs + Green tea and passion fruit cooler. Me: Pbook + Mango iced tea and umm… ahhh… erhm…. ummmmmmm… ringtones? SURE!
I reached DEEP in [...]

One day, while dj’ing a wedding reception in Chicago, I met someone that I will probably never see again. Someone that could have been a significant part of my life. These are the memoirs of that night, a night that I will probably never forget. I wanted to share it with you. [...]
