They can have my ball when they pry it from my cold, dead fingers.

06.30.2007

Well, what have we here. I’m going through the cabinets to do some necessary sorting, and came across this little guy. Literally taken a lifetime ago, clinging to the object that was his very first word. “Ball.” Check that dude out, all pimped out in his pistol hat. I’ve always had a thing for hats. [...]

Guess Everybody’s Favorite Beverage

06.29.2007

So today was “Guess Everybody’s Favorite Beverage” day. Participants resourceful enough to remember to grab something from the fridge this morning all brought in the drink of their choice; the forgetful ran out and got their representative beverage at lunch. The drinks are all now spread across the conference table here in the Design Department. [...]

I turned 21 years old in 1990. From about ’90 – ’93, I was an aspiring drummer in college studying computer music, working at an electronic drum factory making electronic versions of my favorite instrument. It was a good set-up. My buddy Dan, the most mechanically-inclined dude you’d ever meet, owned the drum company. We [...]

Spinning Ballerina Illusion

06.25.2007

I love this one. Which direction is our gal spinning: clockwise or counter-clockwise? Look closely. You’ll initially see her on her left foot spinning clockwise, or on her right foot spinning counter-clockwise. Look again. Try to mentally change the direction. Ride that line and see if you can control what you see. If you find [...]
