New ways to bore you with our holiday photos
I can’t really imagine that anyone’s going to want one of these, but just in case… As a Xmas present for our various family members we used Blurb.com to create a photo book of some of our images from 2007. But hey, you can join the family by purchasing one as well :-). It’s 127 [...]

Waiting for the spring

Another reason not to trust everything computers tell you
I first noticed this sign yesterday walking home after my morning walk with Sub-Evil Boy. Presumably they’ve had some big lorries follow their sat nav system and get stuck down the end of this little road. Can’t quite decide whether I think this is hilarious or sad. Perhaps both. (Geotagging it on Flickr was a [...]

Is this what political will looks like?
To quote the photographer: This is the Perris, Ca, 215 northbound south of perris blvd during the morning commute. This would normally be a bright time of the day, but this morning, traffic was a little stop and go due to the smoke from the local fires here in southern california. A little understated, perhaps? [...]

With joy shall ye draw water
This is a detail of an old public water fountain set in the wall of a “great house” here in Colchester. Apparently something like 9 houses were destroyed to make room for this monster, so perhaps the fountain was an attempt to assuage some guilt? For those who would like a little context, WeatherGirl posted [...]

Wonderful little film about Paul Rand
Paul Rand is responsible for a number of iconic pieces of graphic design (e.g., the classic IBM logo), and this is a nice short film combining examples of his work with short snippets that I assume came from interviews with him. Some great quotes include A work of art is realized when form and content [...]
Hey-dee-ho! Spiffy new version of WordPress all around
I just finished a long overdue upgrade of all the UnhinderedByTalent.com WordPress installs, so everyone’s all spiffy and shiny now. The photo (from the Green Fair where we met the River Nene folks) is just there to fool you into believing this post actually had content :-). Someone asked over on Flickr if I knew [...]

Unrelenting, the seasons change
Apparently they’ve had snow back in Morris, but we’re not likely to see any of the white stuff here in Colchester. The leaves are turning with enthusiasm, however, and it’s definitely crisp when Sub-Evil and I walk in together in the mornings. We’ve even seen a little frost. Hats and gloves are good, but a [...]

Terrible glory
Posted on Flickr by Pierre J.: These are four scanned pictures of hardcopies I possess of the French nuclear test codenamed Licorne, which was fired on August 24, 1970 . The French army had those pictures taken on site. Those pictures were readily available at the time at Tahiti and Moruroa military base, and mine [...]
