Excellent. Everything’s clean. Back on the horse. Thanks to the PC junkies for your feedback. Much appreciated. And thanks to Sara for sending me the link that dives into the conspiracy theory about Macintoshes new Darwin Operating System and the unholy crusade behind its worldwide implementation. In short, Darwin is to Anti-God as Open Source …
Bear with me. I’m doing a bit of a html scrubbing up in this piece. afrojets done got a little dusty. So excuse any mess you see here over the next day. PC users let me know if you see any problems here. I threw all my grey box towers off the the eighth floor …

Highlights include; Nordic Scandinavian architecture, simple analog living, lakes that seem like oceans, a full twenty degree temperature difference that is perfect for hoodie sweatshirt living come supper time, evergreen smells, vistas, super rare Duke Ellington, Miles Davis, and …
Wood. The next few days are all about wood. I’m off to the north shore to enjoy the knotty pine styling and Scandinavian design of the Cove Point Lodge in Beaver Bay. Day tripping in wooden canoes and gentle reading. See you in a few.
Has anyone tried the new vanilla coke? I admit I was curious and foolish and purchased one last night. Holy gods is it awful. Dare I say even worse than new coke. Out of all the cool brands they have why not give the public something halfway consumable to drink. Some crazy plastic designers in …
