:: HIATUS ::
Alas, friends, time for a holiday. K and I will be visiting the land down under for about 2 weeks, starting tomorrow... so no little tidbitties until then. But lots of pics, I promise. And I'll be sure to say "Hi!" to Paul Hogan and Colin Hay for you.

Following my parking rant yesterday, check out how they do it in Japan... you coldn't fit a sticker in there...

Googlefight!

A 300-pound, 7-foot tall aluminum letter "B" fell 500 feet to the ground in Pittsburg... Veer points out the gawking pointing "P"... very funny. Glad no one was hurt, well, besides the "B"...

Why must Americans defile everything? This looks good, however, with that guy from the real "Office".

Apparently, this guy doesn't live anywhere near Philadelphia. He would have run out of stickers by now. Anyway, I really don't see anything wrong with any of the parkjobs on that page... when you learn to drive up streets that are narrower than your car, and drive around for an hour trying to find somewhere anywhere to put your car for the night in the midst of all the triple-parking craziness, you park it where there's space. And you're selling bumper stickers and asking people not to stick them on cars? Man, if I found someone sticking ANYTHING on my car, especially cuz they think they're being clever, ooooooooooo... ass whoopin!

K10K finally got around to posting my screenshot.

Look what's coming around the corner from where I live...

Richard Scarry rocks.

Automation will kill us all... just push the "Make Pretty" button.

How far would you go for a piece of real estate? One man's maniacal quest for the house next door.

Pop and Lock is still rad. So sayeth McWeeney.

Happy Fat Tuesday!

BK and Activision are teaming up to give away four different old school games in their kids’ meals. I know where I'm going to lunch.

HOW-TO: Turn your Mac into a cheap recodring studio!

PodBrix... cute. Zombies... cuter!

Go to Google, click on "Images" and do a search for "sign for choking"... note the results... the second image kinda says it all.

If the mad flava of gold, silver or porcelain caps isn't enough, take it to the next logical level... spinner teef!

Marathon box set for download.

Subway maps of the world all at the same scale. Good ol' Sillydelphia is there...

Muji has opened its first US outlet, in a store-within-a-store at the SoHo branch of the MoMA Design Store. Remember kids, less is more.

Target launches Design for All.

More on the iT house.

Happy Groundhog Day! Here's to 6 more weeks of craptasticness!

Should designers call themselves artists?

This is neat... the same site, designed completely differently using CSS... look at some of the great variation...

Quick... hide your iPod... here comes Bill! But, as mentioned previously, please don't eat your shuffle.

So all of us keep seeing the stupid "innw?" billboard on 95, so we decided to check out the site... don't say I didn't warn you. Turns out it's another "cool" Doritos promo... but the little downloads are somewhat complicated, and turn out to be really inane. On top of it all, the Pretty sweepstakes seems to be nothing more than a search for an intern.

Pretty interesting stuff here.

Man, trapped in car, pees to safety...

New stuff up at Ad Awards...
