An Epic Day

My Life. Digitally Prepped, Cooked and Served Exactly as You Ordered.

Mellow Johnny's Cycling Socks - compliments of Mojo!

Slick new bike socks that Mojo picked up for me down in Austin at Lance Armstrong's shop - Mellow Johnny's.  Mine are a little different than the ones in this picture (yellow accents, not white - totally TdF) - even more ridiculously awesome and comfortable.

Next spring I'm going to have to get my hands on the whole kit.  

Killer gift.  Thanks, Moj!

Toyota Hybrid Synergy Drive: Better Together

Very cool commercial. Next task is to find out how many takes it took to make it happen.

In Japan, Even the Barcodes Are Well Designed (from Fast Company)

Another great weekend in CT. A little hunting, some tasty food, and the "other" White Horse Tavern

What more can I say. Ben got himself his first pheasant, I discovered
a new White Horse Tavern and we had an awesome dinner with friends.
Already looking forward to the next trip.

Kasabian Football Hero

Once again, IdeasAreAwesome.com comes through in the clutch.  They linked to some soccer (err...football) players participating in a bit of "guitar hero."  Except this time, they're using soccer balls instead of controllers.

A family of four, a 700-square-foot barn, and a bowling lane table (via LA Times)

Check out this really unique house.  This guy reclaimed an old barn (once used to house chickens and then repurposed for a boat building operation) and transformed it into a tricked-out place to call home.  

These pictures are great.  Thanks to my mom for the tip!

Death by a Thousand Cuts - these business cartoons by Tom Fishburne are always funny.

Good ideas getting hacked up by the management chain.

Marketing at it's finest - creatively using FLIES at a conference to promote thei booth

The publisher used ultra lightweight banners that were attached with a natural wax. The flies were essentially little airplane banners flying around. After a little while, the banners fell off the flies who were unharmed.

Absolutely brilliant.
