“Anyway, one such year-end list that I enjoyed was Rolling Stone’s Forty Reasons We Loved Television in ‘07, and it ranked Jake Brown’s 40-foot fall at the X Games #29, which reminded me how fucking awesome it was to the extent that I decided to re-post it above. I love it all: the eye-popping “I regret nothing!” free-fall, Tony Hawk’s declaration that “I can’t believe he made a 720!”, and the eventual replays that show Brown’s shoes popping off from the impact…”

In Melbourne I developed a way-finding-system for the Eureka Tower Carpark. The distored letters on the wall can be read perfectly when standing at the right position. This project won several international design awards. (via Axel Peemoeller - Eureka Carpark Melbourne

“

John Lennon stuck his head in the window of the passenger seat where I was sitting and he sang Uncontrollable Urge (from Q. Are We Not Men? A. We are Devo) to me, about six inches from my face.

It was the perfect song for him to choose and I knew why he did it, too. I’d borrowed the intro from I Want to Hold Your Hand for the intro of Uncontrollable Urge. So he was really saying: ‘Those guys stole my intro.”’

I’m well pleased with my Fail Whale Mug. I’ll take my limited edition Savage Chickens “Rock On” mug home. The kids will love it. Now that I think about it, the kids would love the whale, too. Maybe I’ll have to swap them from time to time. Naah, that’s too complicated…

Oh, that’s right. Internal monologue is supposed to be internal. FAIL.

However it may seem, this speed hump in Philadelphia is nothing more than flat pieces of plastic burned into the street. Municipal officials say the month-old program will soon be expanded. (via To Slow Speeders, Philadelphia Tries Make-Believe - NYTimes.com)

“It used to be that an employee’s relationship with their manager was the No. 1 reason for employees voluntarily leaving an organization. Now it’s a lack of employer work schedule flexibility. That’s the No. 1 reason.”
