Wish me luck!

places I hang out

April 18, 2004

There are things that we can all learn from other people. For me, being abroad doesn’t mean that I can’t continue to learn, that I can’t do my market research, or that I can’t network. It just means that I have to find a different way to do it, and I have a […]

hold the soul

April 17, 2004

My friend Andre made a really good comment of late. I like words, I like knowing the meanings of words, and I understand his frustration with the deviation from words’ importance, in this case the word “soul.” So, if you would humor him, you would use it less:

up your productivity and laugh

April 14, 2004

Randy Milholland has reminded me yet again why I want to launch a webcomic come fall. Also, I have two new reads to keep me busy, and realized that I really ought to research my market much much more.

Jazz and blues are movements I think that every American at least should bother […]

inspired by Nina

April 11, 2004

I don�t often talk about music influences as there are too many of them. I took an ethnomusicology class at Hampshire once upon a time and just filled out my already existing love for world music. I do occasionally talk about heroes that I have, or as may be more apt, sheroes. […]

kinja my feeds

April 8, 2004

After reading various sources of praise, I decided to check out kinja. I do like it because it gives me more of what I want in a newsreader, which is just to pull it all together from different sources according to date… only I won’t stick Boing Boing on there since it would just […]

taste foray one

April 3, 2004

Soft and pliable, like butter except that it doesn’t run in your mouth. Sometimes the best things to add to dinner are the easiest things to make.
The best part bout the dish is the idea of a slight surprise, what is suspended in the bottom of the semi-solid goodness. Still, it’s not […]
