Christ Mark, you must have constant issues with these being cropped by menu names.Mine, for reference.

Ha Ha! Old Pictures on the Internet!

Eerily similar to the “Ha Ha!… Internet!” guy, eh?

My gadgets tend to work and not break.


marco:

A lot of people seem to have constant issues with their phones, computers, printers, hard drives, and other technology breaking or failing.

None of my technology ever breaks at the rate that I see from other people.

Even though it’s a bit presumptuous, my best guess is that I just treat my electronics better than most people.

Call my holier-than-thou if you want, but I absolutely agree with Marco. Sure, I’ve had issues with hardware over the years, but its always been due to manufacturer defects or flaws in design that caused an early failure. I’ve never lost any technology more valuable than a CD or two. I’m currently using a G4 PowerBook that’s almost 5 years old, and the main reason I’m upgrading is not because its broken, but because its just too slow. I can count on my thumbs how many times I’ve dropped my iPhone. It’s been knocked off my desk a fair bit more than that, finally resulting in a broken vibrate mechanism, but that can’t really be helped. While I grew up in a relatively privileged environment, I was very rarely just *given* anything. No game consoles, no fancy super-soakers or RC cars. I got things I needed, and things at birthdays sure, but other than that, I was expected to save up my pocket money for what I wanted. Like Marco says, maybe its because of this that I’ve always taken exceptional care of my tools and toys– and frankly I can’t imagine treating them any other way. It just seems wrong.

This photo eloquently explains my feelings on the subject of shark week, even though I no longer have a TV.

T and I just finished going through the Shark Week 10th Anniversary collection on Netflix. Its streaming, so you have no excuse. Go now.

New York City with no people on Vimeo

Occasionally when I get up very early and go out into the streets of NYC, I also experience this feeling of having the whole city to myself.

It’s strange but wonderful to experience the city in a different way sometimes.

The best part of living in the world today is that if you have an idea you can make it a reality or find someone else that has already done it. The beauty of living in the future will be that the final product of your idea will be presented to you.

I just had a taste of that future with this video.

Last night I was talking to a friend who mentioned that she went running last saturday morning and enjoyed how the streets were empty because of this initiative. I mentioned how awesome it would be to ride bike up Park Avenue and record it. The video above did just that. I can’t wait to be drunk off the future.

PS: Summer Streets ends this Saturday

Definitely a special– if eerie– feeling.

Saving Lives Just Part of the Job


Iron workers on the Golden Gate Bridge are often the only ones standing between a would-be suicide and another chance at life.

Having had the bridge visible from my living room window during my time in San Francisco, stories about it’s suicidal attraction (of which SFGate has had many) always hit a nerve.
