Hey guys, some local friends have entered a big cosmetics competition.
They harvest their face-mud from a natural geothermal spring near our town. They're up against some big-time companies and I think they deserve to win!
The winners are determined by how many "likes" their photo gets on facebook.
Do me a solid and follow this link and "like" their photo. Any help would be much appreciated!
Thanks homiez:

We made a commercial for a new online "English as a second language" course at WoogiWorld.
I'm really proud of how it turned out. Watch it in English and Spanish.
I was waiting for the guy to start shouting "gooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllll" in the Spanish one, but it never happened.

After being down and out with bronchitis, I'm slowly getting back into reality. I had lots of time to lay there and think.
My dream (interpretations?):
I used to get really high fevers as a kid and have hallucinations. This time, I had a high fever, but just had a weird dream:
There was this new kind of tick, that had a long body with a large green translucent abdomen. When this tick would burrow into someone's flesh, the abdomen would glow green and pulsate.
My body was covered with these new insects, all burrowed in past their heads. It looked like I was covered in scales there were so many of them, all pulsing and sucking away my life.
I would methodically unscrew them from my skin and cast them aside, but somehow they filled back in as quickly as I could remove them.
At one point I sat down in the passenger's seat of my car and ran my hands through my hair when, to my horror and disgust, I discovered that even my head, under my hair, was layered with the ticks.
The dream was one where it all feels like reality and just when you're about to abandon yourself to the despair of living your life in the horrid circumstance, you wake up and all you can think about (as you lay there in your broken-fever sweat) is how grateful you are that it was just a dream.

My home office somehow became the dumping ground for everything in my house. So much so, that I started working in my living room on a TV tray.
This situation lasted about a year, until this weekend, when my wife and I decided to reclaim my office! (she was tired of me working in the living room too)
After cleaning and taping and painting we moved in some furniture we picked up on Craigslist that's been waiting in the garage for just such a day.
Most importantly, I finally got to put up the huge Chibi Knight boss posters Jouste made for me and Renaenae printed.

So, I love playing Settlers of Catan, especially the expansion scenario "Seafarers of Catan" where you can explore islands with boats.
My uncle is an even bigger Settlers fan and just recently retired, so I thought of a neat retirement gift for him: Gold Settlers of Catan pieces!
Most companies give you a gold watch or something when you retire, but these will be something he can actually use!
My friend Matt is going to precision cut the pieces for me on his CNC machine out of aluminum, then we're going to anodize them to be gold colored (no I'm not using real gold)
I couldn't find any dimensions for the settlers pieces, so I got out my trusty school ruler and drew up some plans (someone out there might find these measurements useful):

I'm pumped to see how these turn out, I'll post pics when they're done :-D

I'll be attending the Flash Gaming Summit on the 27th in San Francisco. I figure since I live within driving distance and Chibi Knight was nominated for an award and last year's event was pretty fun, I'll head over again.
If you'll be there, let me know and we can meet up for a glass of milk or juice (did I mention this event is well-catered?).
