While digging around old files for this site, I came across two somewhat creepy photos of me. First is one I created years ago for reasons that escape me now, and it sorta looks like Jeremy:



The second was a creation that Jeff did, combining me and Jakob Nielsen:



(If you know me and know who Jakob is, you know why this is funny beyond just the goofy morphed photo.)

Speaking of Jakob, I somehow missed this page which is pretty funny: Jakob Nielsen’s Usability Fighting Styles.

Quite a while back the Brunching Shuttlecocks (one of my favorite humor sites when it was alive) had an article called Twelve Actual AP Headlines Which, When Followed By 'Doo-Dah, Doo-Dah,' Can Be Sung To The Tune of 'Camptown Races' (sample: "Man in Wheelchair Killed by Train").

I guess Lore Sjöberg (the creator of the Brunching Shuttlecocks) has too much free time because he built this Doo-Dah News Network flash app: it scrolls headlines that you can sing to the tune of "Camptown Races" if you add "Doo-Dah" to the end. News has never been so much fun or musical!

Not to bore anybody with all 80+ photos from our vacation in the Bahamas (out of the 240+ I actually took), I put a few select shots on Flickr.

Dear Atlantis in Nassau: thanks for the great vacation!

Dear US Airways: thanks for undoing all our relaxing on our flight home. Now go find our luggage...
Update: Hey, thanks for finding our luggage so quickly.

The Chapmans as Simpsons...

Thanks to Craig for telling me about this. "Your tongues can't repel flavor of that magnitude!"

I finally got around to putting my last riding video on YouTube. "Wire: 1989-1995" is a best-of compilation of the four videos I made during those years. Until now it's only been available on VHS, so rather than make a DVD version that nobody wants to buy I'll just put it online for free. If you like old school New England riding (especially flatland) you're in luck:

Jill got me a very cool gift for Father's Day: some Star Wars artwork done by our friend (and amazing comic book artist) Craig Rousseau. (You can see a larger version of it on his site here.)

I still think that Food, Sex, or Cars?! was one of Saturday Night Live's best game shows. I wish the video was somewhere online, but even just reading the transcript cracks me up.

I thought this was pretty cool. Someone put a lot of work into this, and there are some great quotes here.
