For a facsimile we must admit

Doug E. Fresh is good and makes a perfect fit... Sorry...went back to my old school roots there for a second. There's probably 3 people reading this. Well, there might be more. But there's probably 3 people of the 5 people that read this blog with any kind of regularity (Todd's Blog, now with more Fiber!!)...anyway, …

Awwwwww….and the forging of the rings

This post (as most of my blogging posts of late) serves a dual purpose.  The first is to give me something to look back on from some time in the future and get a sense of where my head was at at the time. The second is really just to amuse anyone who might be …

Days Dan Confused

I may have mentioned about my long work week last week. Please keep in mind, that was not a bitch fest. And while I can honestly say I was tired as sh*t at the end of the week, I can also honestly say that when you are in the midst of a fantastic company, the …

How Easy Do You Think It Is?

I'm going to let you in on a little secret. I'm not a huge fan of basketball. But I am a fan of Michael Jordon. The man is inspirational.Check this out:That's one of my favorite Jordan commercials. And no...none of what I just typed is the secret.Here's the secret.I struggle...EVERY DAY with this weight loss …

Sleep! Doctor’s Orders

So....the sleep study that I thought was last night...wait, before I get going on that. Did I really just start the post with 'so'?  I hate it when people do that in actual conversation, because it usually means that they are just talking over whomever just said something, or want all attention focused on what …

Hey You! Who said that? Baby how you been?

I think I worked about 60 hours. With the longest day being yesterday. Pulled a 13 hour shift. Solo. It's actually not as …

Eww

Note to self....Dear Future Todd,I know at one point you used to think that ANY pickle was a good pickle. And for the most part, your 40 years of existence in this lifetime has born that out.Until now.Please, when this jar is finished (because it's a shame to waste even a bad pickle), but PLEASE …

Earth Was Moving Time Stood Still

It's been a crazy week. That's not really as much of an overstatement as it might seem. We've got a couple of people on vacation at work...so I've been having to work some longer hours and shifts that I don't normally work. The funny thing about it is, I don't mind at all. Have I covered this …

Cutting to the Core of this Apple Shite

So...one really cool thing about getting a Mac from a business that had it all tricked out for pre-press imaging is that I have Adobe CS4 already loaded and shit's dialed in for that.The not so really cool thing is that there's all this other stuff on there which, for a printing company-is pretty much …

Ain’t Nothin’ But A G Thang, Baby

You can't really see it too well from this pic (thank you Instagram), but that's a G5 MacPro under my desk and 2 Mac Cinema Displays (of differing vintages, but same size) atop the desk.This is another step in the dream. Courtesy of my parents. No, Mommy and Daddy didn't run out to the Apple …
