We were getting the Christmas decorations out of storage today, and my son found this drawing from c. 1990.  It was the source drawing for my Law Hall T-Shirts.

Another great video of some impossible solids is here and worth a viewing (it’s 15 minutes long…but interesting).

I’m not a fan of the iPad.  It’s either a very underpowered laptop, or an overpowered phone that doesn’t make phone calls.  I have an iPhone, and due to that fact, I have no interest whatsoever in an iPad.  It seems worthless to me.  The iPhone’s days are numbered, too.  It’s a frustrating piece of junk.

Anyway, there are many times when I have wanted to do this with my Apple products…all the way back to the days of my original 5GB iPod.

I thought this was a funny montage of all the infomercial problems that we all face on a daily basis.  My 4 year old daughter actually said to me that we should get one of those “Topsy Turvy” tomato planters because growing our own tomatoes will hurt our backs. :)

Well, I was making my wife a birthday present in 2005, and I tried making something instead of buying something.  So I created some photo-mosaics and created a shadow box.  I’m no pro when it comes to this, but here’s what I came up with.

It’s a little hard to see, but those are all little pictures from our photo album.  Click to make the image bigger and see if you can see it a little better.  As we had only been married for a couple of years, the photo album wasn’t huge yet, and there are some duplicates.

Placed in a shadowbox with a ton of crap from Hobby Lobby, this is what resulted:

Using the Smiley Logo that I had previously made, I created a “stitched” version that was printed on t-shirt transfer and ironed on.  A lot faster and cheaper than actual embroidery, and looks almost as good.

I was amused by this.  I took a picture of my car in the driveway and Pixar’d it up for the kids in Photoshop.

It’s that time of year again.  Donuts with Dad.  Since Fathers Day falls outside of the school year, they have a special day for fathers in April at our preschool.  Brooke got to sit next to her BFF Emily, and next to her boyfriend Tyler.  Of course, she got über shy and wouldn’t talk to anyone or eat any donuts.  But, she made this for me, which I think is cute.

Just a logo I did for our company Skunkworks department (which I am a part of).
