Old red eyes is back

But somehow we’ve escaped the brood. ‘Course maybe that’s a function of me not being around so much on account of work and having moved to Chinatown. See, back when I was 18, 19, which was, hard to believe, 17 summers ago now, I was working in telemarketing for a wholesale distributor of video game [...]

Distance between Kansas City and Detroit?

It’s 750 miles, which is about the distance between Chicago and New York City, when you take into account that I have to get a car and drive to Ann Arbor and back again, and never mind the 40-minute taxi ride from KCI to downtown KCMO. Add the 283 mile leg back to Chicago and [...]

Updates

Been pretty depressed lately, the kind of depression where you just want to lie in bed and not do anything, but, occasionally you have a good conversation with someone on a plane, like I did this evening with a remarkable young lady who comes up from Kansas City to ride horses in Gilberts, near Elgin, [...]

Don’t really know how to say this, so I’ll just say it

Have you ever designed the interaction work for something, let it go to creatives and technologists that you didn’t control, then it disappeared for months and then you saw it just before it went live and were just surprised in a bad way and disappointed since creatives took liberty but didn’t have the knowledge or [...]

Shameless plug for Sage

A word about “Looptopia”

I remember seeing the build up in Toronto for Nuit Blanche, the all-night festival of events, art, entertainment inspired by the Paris festival of 2002, and it simply looked spectacular, so I was really pumped about the idea of Looptopia, planned by the Loop Alliance, which is like the Loop Chamber of Commerce, but, these [...]

Prévoir délais

My time’s being split between two cities on opposite ends of the midwest plus Chi-City this week, the last week, the next few weeks, with projects of fair complexity and so, I’ll try to keep posting, but, I’m a little distracted right now.
