Don’t know if you guys have heard of this place or not, but I’ve heard good things about it and plan on checking it out in the near future with Jamie. It’s a small little place that has pillows and couches to chill out on and they have pretty decent DJs. The website is pretty sweet too, they’ve got good tunes that you can listen to at work to drown out all your crappy co-workers.

enormous room

keep on rocking in the free world

hahaha.. I finally got coerced into an answer at work today. Some lady had to interview me from finance, and after I answered her first question, she starts babbling “no no no you dont want to answer that like that, here’s what you should say when they ask!” Glad its not my job to get people to lie. Later we sharred another conversation jem:

her: so to correct a timecard you know you submit a prism labor form?
me: a prison labor form?
her: yes.
me: whats that named after?
her: its the software we use, prism software.
me: (laughing).
her: whats funny?

I think it’s somewhat funny that at this very moment in time I’m supposed to be working on something that’s very time sensitive for work but instead I’m messing around here. I just wanted to see how this work and all. Hey, you got to feed the curiosity and procrastination bugs, might as well be at the same time right? Well, that is all for now.

Providence 30th of September, Boston 1st of October. They were awesome at the warped tour, really amazing to see live. check out a free track off their new album here or an awesome song off drunken lullabies here

one more step along the way to escaping cubical life is complete, I passed my practical test for my EMT licence.

Anyone home?

Anyway, here’s something creative from last year, this person from chicago made a bunch of fake newspaper headers, and glued them on newspaper boxes.

OWWW, my head hurts. What the hell happened last night? First i took lots of tequila shots, then….. fade to black. Thanks everyone for tasty dinner and drinks!

anyway, this piece of street art goes out to aaron, who has a strange obsession with spongebob.

is the best nintendo game ever, no question. The different gangs in the game are really funny, but the description for the ‘frat boys’ is the best: Frat Guys: These poor rich boys have weak characters, and will run away as soon as they think they are in danger. When they grab a weapon, however, they change and get violent. They love to throw weapons.” I think I know people like that, though beer somehow doesn’t make it into the description.

This is by some finnish dude called hki cheetah. This is on a wooden wall, then he nailed an actual record onto the turntable stencil…. awesome idea!

Im a calf in a veal farm:

from www.vealfarm.com

Q: How are veal calves housed?

A. Milk-fed veal calves are housed in a well-lit barn, allowing family veal farmers to easily monitor calves for changes in health, behavior and eating patterns.

Modern veal housing is designed to partition the animals only up to the shoulder level, ensuring calves visual and physical interactions with their neighbors… Calves can comfortably lie down in natural positions, stand up and groom themselves… Most importantly, individual housing has been shown to help prevent the spread of disease by limiting calf-to-calf contact while allowing socialization.

moo!

Here is a nice piece by Banksy. He absolutely kicks ass, does lots of high profile, enormous stencils. Probably the best known stencil artist in the world.

Thinking about some kind of bike and bar type event when we move in to somerville, I know this has “Headline: 5 drunk mountain bikers killed” written all over it, but it still would be fun. Heres a good link to 4 solid safety tips for drinking and biking. I think were in the Clear for the law, according to this link the law only covers motor vechicles.
This article references mass law too.

Theres tons of cool sidewalk chalk art out there, this one is from a italian contest:

amazing what someone can do with a sidewalk

It always amazes me how smart gorillia’s and monkey’s are. This one used sign language to request a dentist.

“Her teacher, Francine Patterson, was at her side when the anesthesiologist prepared to put her under in the morning, and apparently Koko asked to meet her specialists.
“They crowded around her, and Koko, who plays favorites, asked one woman wearing red to come closer. The woman handed her a business card, which Koko promptly ate.”

Cool, but still not as cool as how smart Octopuses are. They crawl out of their tanks at aquariums, feed on fish in other tanks, then come back before morning.

Some of the sickest graffiti in the world is coming out of South America, like this insane wall from Beunos Aires:
