Matters of the Heart
As I’ve posted about over the past six weeks, I’m going to get another puppy (another min pin to be more specific) to bring into the clan of little monsters. There are currently three of them, my parents’ 4 month old red, Juliette, my brother’s 4 year old black and tan, Dobbs, and my little guy, Forbin.
I had picked out a puppy from the new chocolate litter, named him...

Downgrade
clientsfromhell:
Client: You know those links across the top of the home page? Me: You mean the navigation? Client: Yeah, we think it makes the page too busy. So we’ve decided to just have one link called “Site” and when you click on it, you get one of those drop-down lists. A list of all the pages on the site. Pretty cool, huh?

Tumblr Fail
I hate to sound critical, but after downloading the new Tumblr iPhone app today, I’m rather disappointed. While the saved drafts and iPhone notifications are nice, not much else is even at the level of the previous app. It seems pretty buggy, often crashing when going to post a video, which is the one piece I was looking forward to utilizing the most from the road, especially at shows.

"It's A Sign"
So I’m on the train tonight, wearing my gray “Weekapaug High 04” sweatshirt that I got back in ‘03, and this bum sits down behind me.
<Begin Semi-Fanatical Background> For those of you that wouldn’t know, “Weekapaug Groove” is a Phish song, part of the Mike’s Song > I Am Hydrogen/Simple > Weekapaug Groove” trifecta that is commonly...

DVR, Once TV’s Mortal Foe, Helps Ratings →
The NY Times’ Bill Carter wrote an interesting article earlier this week about the surprising reality of the DVR, advertising, and ratings. While network executives were busy railing against Tivo and the DVR, it turns out that DVR actually helps improve the ratings of many TV shows.
According to Nielsen, 46 percent of viewers 18 to 49 years old for all four networks taken together are...

Birthday Party
Chicago tumblr friends… if you don’t have plans tomorrow night, come celebrate my 25th birthday with me over at Sedgwicks. My friend Marcus (and a couple of his bandmates from The Hue) will be playing an acoustic show and we’ll surely be taking in a few adult bevvies over the evening.

99 Albums in 4:20 - Eclectic Method Played as a live intro to Phish’s Exile On Main St. Set 10.31.09 - Empire Polo Club, Indio, CA
One of the coolest parts of the Ocho was the cover set of The Rolling Stones’ Exile on Main Street. However, this intro video that came on 4:20 before the set started got everyone dancing and going nuts as Phish took the stage, putting an end to the game that so many...
