CAR FIRE IN SEATTLE
Here in Fremont at the intersection of Fremont Ave and NW 39th St. Everyone is fine… for now.
What happened to Trader Joe’s Kefir supply?
Okay, I must admit that I’m a fan of Trader Jose’s awesome pomegranate Kefir. Mostly because I like the protein and pro-biotics offered in a little swig of the bottle. Also, I’m hip to having the same benefits of yogurt in a drinkable resealable bottle… without having to gulf down the entire contents of a typical yogurt cup, which often times seems like too much. But what happened? It’s been gone now for over a week! Please come back, you little cute Kefir..!
Yum!
FAKING SMART! The Greatest Book Ever Written!
It’s that time of year when you’re looking around for that perfect gift for someone. You look here, you look there, but you just can’t make up your mind. You think “Man, I wish there was a good book out there to give to someone. But there just aren’t any good books written any more…”
THAT’S WHERE YOU’RE WRONG! There is a good book written out there and it’s this book (…er, my book): FAKING SMART!
Profiles in Protest – Occupy Seattle
Here’s a short video of some of the people I met at the Westlake Park protest this past week. Candid and well-spoken, each of them had good reasons for making their voice heard and for exercising their First Amendment rights.
OCCUPY SEATTLE Protest This Sunday
Had some time to visit the Occupy Seattle protests today. Took a few pictures and a video or two and got the chance to meet a few of the protesters. It was interesting to see how the speakers communicated without bullhorns: the people in the crowd shouted out what was said so that those standing farther back could hear. Lots of cool signs. Wish I was able to meet with more people, but I ran out of time.
Shepard Fairey in Fremont
WHEN PHENOMENOLOGY MEETS MARKETING
Okay, there is some nice Shepard Fairey art right here in our neighborhood, curtesy of the folks down at EVO. Like Banksy or Mr. Brainwash, Fairey is one of the biggest names in street art. His Obama likeness (the neon-highlighted contemplative Obama) is probably his most famous piece. I guess Evo has put his art on their wall because they are selling Fairey’s “OBEY” line of clothing. Wait… Shepard Fairey has a clothing line? Please.
