Nice work guys.
Pat on the back to the New York Times Photo Desk for catching this one.
Incidentally, Iran, are you looking for more Photoshop experts? Maybe think about hiring the guy who “re-touched” Mariah Carey’s body for the latest cover of Elle.
For some reason this morning I was thinking about some of the old toys I had as a kid. Sure there were the Transformers and the Gobots. He-Man.
I think my favorites, though, were the construction toys. Of which only Leggos stood the test of time, it seems.
But does anyone else remember Capsela? or Construx?
I honestly don’t think I ever knew quite what to do with Capsela — they seemed like they would’ve been awesome things to play with if you were near a large body of water. Or you like to take a lot of baths. Neither of which applied to me. Still. Pretty cool.
But I definitely remember liking Construx. They were sort of like a modern version of an Erector Set. Without the rust. Simple, extensible. Lots of fun. Creative options galore.
And now they’re listed on eBay as ‘Vintage’. These are the problems that start occuring when one turns 30, I guess…
Just updated my theatre company’s website:

oh man. how much longer is he in office?
I think it’s more than a little ironic (or perhaps fitting) that for all of my bitching and moaning about the new iPhones and their pricing structure, and my own personal crusade to not — as a current, loyal AT&T customer — pay more for an iPhone than people who aren’t with AT&T… what did I manage to do this morning?
Drop a nice full-weight pint glass full of water square on the screen of my current phone. To which we say:
Nice one!
I was trying to hold out until October to when I’m eligible for an upgrade phone, so I don’t have to fork out the extra $200.
We’ll see if that works. Right now my phone’s screen is basically being held together with tape.
