here’s to the crazy ones. the misfits. the rebels. the troublemakers. the round pegs in the square holes. the ones who see things differently. they’re not fond of rules. and they have no respect for the status quo. you can quote them, disagree with them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. about the only thing that you can’t do, is ignore them. because they change things. they invent. they

In short, we are opening a gallery. In long, we stumbled upon the most fabulous space in the entire world and within a week it was ours. The strangest thing is that we feel like we have been planning this for years. And in a way we have, we just didn’t know exactly what we were planning for. For the first time the space and the idea were feasible. As many of you know we

Great minds think alike. For the first time ever, I have not only thought of real, feasible new years resolutions, but almost two months in, I haven't faulted. The first is boring, it deals with a budget and boring blah blah blah(but I have kept to it). The other two are really easy but they are important, and everyone should make themselves at least try them. No plastic bags from any store,

the guidelines: 24 hours to make a video, no longer than 5 minutes. then they gave us a theme: "ill be your mirror". then they gave us a prop we had to use, a ball of twine. and a line of dialogue we had to use "you press the button, we'll do the rest"so this is what we came up with. the quality of youtube videos isnt very good at all.

This is the story of Kate's new couch.During a typical trip to the studio, I spotted a nearby neighbor carrying what looked like a perfectly good couch to the dumpster. He assured me that it was in great condition right before he threw it off his balcony. A little disgusted with the way the couch was treated, I drove on to pick up Kate. When hearing this news, Kate immediately shouted "Let's go

Found this sick trashcan, it would actually be harder not to recycle with this thing. The Tri3 's design is fabulous, no obnoxious logos, just a good looking trashcan. It saves space by being one unit and the size of the can itself would encourage less waste. Guisset Constance & Cid Gregory designed this pretty trashcan...check out more of their rad designs here.

Creeeeepy Technology?

Sometimes I think technology is kind of creepy and so I'm hesitant to use it..but I've given in a little more recently and its been good. Hayley and I both read blogs, so they can't be that creepy...we're going to give it a try. Another good one is video iChat. I had only used it a little before this week, with my family mainly, but not as much as I should have. My friend Meaghan, who lives in
