I’m in a car, on the long drive to Chicago. At the end of this road though, sweet drinks and rock n’ roll courtesy of Lollapalooza. Anyone going to be there?

I think I need a pair of these glasses.

…as seen on Zach Tiller – sort of a dark DJ Liberachi thing. I’m going for a ’73 pirates statistician vibe. Thoughts?

The illustration for the cover of Bright Eye’s Digital Ash in an Digital Urn, and in turn, this t-shirt, made Rolling Stone’s best of 2008 list. You can see all the shirts at RollingStone.com. It also made the print edition, but I’m not sure which month.

Side note: The CD cover and shirt were printed with glow in the dark ink… in 2005. (Although, to be fair, I think Conor still takes these shirts out with him on tour). 

These images taken from satellites (false-colored for emphasis?) are amazing and beautiful. Image of Basra, Iraq – former home of ancient Sumerians, current home of military exercises.

I saw The Dark Knight over the weekend. It didn’t disappoint. I also saw these kids in the park smashing the crap out of a Batman pinata. It didn’t disappoint.

I’m testing out the WordPress iPhone app… it’s pretty slick. Now I’ll be mobile blogging the lights out. Photo is charles, dmc, and cj shining a bowling ball at mr t’s birthday bowl.
