This Week in the Short North...

Labor Day weekend: Greek Festival (all weekend) and Gallery Hop (Saturday). If you need to go *through* the Short North, pick up N. 4th Street before you hit Goodale (cross over at Nationwide Blvd?) and cut back over to High street around 1st or 2nd Ave or so. But High @ Goodale is clogged, and stays that way for quite a few blocks.

Amusements & Distractions...

Scribble, a cartoon by good friend and former workmate Josh Hara - a darned good scribbler (graphics designer) his own bad self.

Streaming jazz from KNTU 88.1 FM, live from my old haunt in Denton, TX. Yes, I was a "Bruceling" - and it appears that Bruce Hall finally has air conditioning. KNTU still has great jams, and UNT great bands.

The original "mainstream" lolcat site.

Photoshop Disasters. Yes, these works of "art" actually made it to print.

Selling a house is tough enough - don't make it worse. Featuring the ongoing saga of Chair!

XKCD. "A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language."

"It's not news, it's Fark!"

Texts From Last Night. You kids get off my... hey, whose pants are these? (gets a bit tawdry)

Spaceweather!

Layer Tennis. Fridays at 2pm Central. Matches archived here.

Weird, bizarre, and just plain odd.

Oh my. Awkward Family Photos.

On many levels I feel sorry for these folks. And then - suddenly - for some reason I don't.
