incriminating photo #1

1st piece of incriminating evidence - photo from roughly 1976.  I'm assuming it's '76.  Why else would I be decked out in red, white, and blue?  Note my horrid blue gym shorty shorts and huge buck teeth.  Thank god my parents spent their hard earned money on braces for me.  Also in the picture is my best friend Apollo Fong, who lived on the next block.  The only cool thing about this picture is our bikes.  We had cool bikes...

The house I grew up in was in Hidden Valley subdivision in Houston Texas. Back in the 70's and early 80's, it was a great place to live. My father was always so proud to win "Yard of the Month". 1022 Twinbrooke Dr. Houston Tx

I've been obsessed with the graphic artwork of Mary Blair. When we were last at Disneyworld one of my requirements was to go see her mural at the Contemporary Hotel.

Christmas tree

Saturday after Thanksgiving, I ended up putting up the aluminum tree.
It ended up taking me most of the day, but it looks great.

Doctor Who

Back in my early youth, I was a huge Doctor Who fan. I would attend local conventions and even help with the local PBS fundraisers. I even talked my mother into knitting me 14 foot scarf, which I still have in their attic. Just recently I starting watching the show again and felt the evil pull of fandom again. Now that I'm 40, I feel I can embrace my inner geek. At least now I won't get beat-up at school.

I really really want...

I really want a danish wall unit like this. I even have the perfect place for this, in the dinning room by our Burke table. Unfortunately I don't have da money for it, and I've certainly never seen something like this at a thrift store.

Solaire chair in Frederick MD. I really want a set of these for outside, but I'm afraid they will fade or get stolen. They wanted $235, and I ended up passing on it. I regret not buying it now.

The Beatles Remastered

Bought into the hype and had to by the new Sgt. Pepper's album remastered. Not sure how it's different from my old album, but the packaging is nice. Starbucks was selling all the albums individually.

Holga Reg

Just downloaded Camera Bag for the Iphone. While I would love to have a Holga camera, I don't want to deal with film and getting it developed. This is a fun and cheap alternative.

Saarinen womb chair at Home Anthology in Catonsville MD. I LOVE this chair so much. Unfortunately I can’t afford it.

Burke dinning chairs

Two Burke dinning room chairs found on Craigslist for $89.00 on 2/1/2009. Couldn’t figure out why the seller set the price at such an odd number. Chairs go perfect with our Burke table from Home Anthology. Love the orange fabric on the cushions.
