I Gots No Interweb
The promise of high speed fiber optic cable lured me. Now that it's installed, I can barely stay connected. Posts will resume when I'm once again am part of the great interweb.

Garbage Island
Disease, miscarriage, toxicity - if you care at all about those things then you need to care about what's happening to the environment. They're all directly related to each other. In the middle of the pacific ocean just north of Hawaii is a large vortex as currents from Asia and North America meet. Tons of floating trash migrates to this vortex, most of which is plastic designed to last forever. Watch this amazing 12 part VBS TV series about the so called Garbage Island.

Honey I'm Home!
So here's a tidbit about me. I absolutely love honey. I've been known to down honey packets and mini jars. Yes it sounds sickening but I just can't get enough. I use it in place of sugar and prefer it as an ice cream topping over chocolate or caramel.
About a month ago I decided I wanted to own a beehive so after some research I found a place out in Oxnard, California that lets anyone sponsor one. The farmers get the money they need to maintain and consumers get to visit the hive and take home fresh honey.
Some things I learned. . .
- Fresh honey (right off the comb) is sooo much better than anything packaged. TRUST ME.
- Bees are hot! Literally! You can feel heat emanating from their combs.
- They work so hard. It takes 400 trips for the colony to produce 1 tablespoon of honey.
- Some bees die defending as you harvest. I try to be really careful. I understand karma dammit.
- Chunks of honey filled combs make AWESOME gifts.

Messed Up
Sorry about the 24 hour site outage yesterday. See kids, this is what happens when you forget to auto-renew your domain name!
All is back and all is well now. Thanks for the hundreds of emails. I'm totally okay and no I didn't get hacked. :)

Stockholm Furniture Fair 2008
So this year's furniture fair wasn't too exciting. Some of the lamps were cool but nothing we haven't seen before. True to form the furniture was very Scandinavian. However, if that's your steelo then you'll love what was shown, many of which you'll find in stores this year. Hit the jump to see all the photos.
Thanks Richie!

Cock Climbing
I apologize for the title but I had to. See, a friend sent me this link and the title describes it to the tee. A wall full of illuminated condoms fully erect. Don't turn away tho, there's artistic merit here. It's just one of many pieces on display at the "Sex in Design/Design in Sex" exhibition. Everything from dildos, butt plugs, to very unique urinals. Where might one see this? At the Museum of Sex in New York City of course.
Thanks Jeff!
