I put on my Carpenters tape because they put me in a good mood.
Okay.
I wrote your names on strips of paper to draw from a hat (that Ben made me):
Good job. =)
You've won yourself a free C.Lit t-shirt of one of my favorite designs, OFF WITH THEIR HEADS.
A big fat congratulations is in order for my pal Ben J.
He won an NPR/WNYC t-shirt design contest on the Leonard Lapote Show---and which was judged by Isaac Mizrahi! So, this morning he got to be interviewed on the radio by Leonard Lapote and Mizrahi.
It was really exciting to hear. And I taped it, too.
Here's the Godet t-shirt he designed:
It was also a little surreal to hear Ben on the radio talking to Mizrahi because we've been watching that new show on Bravo called "The Fashion Show". So, the coming-together of these two worlds was a bit unreal.
Check out the WNYC site for the t-shirt design contest.
Etsy also congratulated Ben in a nice Storque article that you should also check out.
Do you remember those things from your freshman year of high school (or maybe middle school) called slam books?
It's a notebook that's passed around a group of people. Each page has a different question, and whoever has the book writes their answer down on the page. So, for example, if one page's question was "Are You A Virgin?", there'd be all these responses from different people.
And wasn't there a sort of key of symbols in the front of the book? Like... you just drew a symbol or wrote your initials under your response instead of writing out your name...? I forget. I'm trying to remember to remember ten years ago.
Anyway, this weekend I remembered this one guy's response for the page/question "What do you think of Craig?"... He didn't like me at all.
He wrote:
"HE SHITS BRICKS AND SUCKS DICK."
Has a nice ring to it. It rolls off your tongue.
No, it doesn't roll---it runs and jumps off the tip.
I am thinking about purchasing (or letting someone else purchase for me) a knitting machine.
I have no idea how they work, though. So, I looked them up on YouTube and found this realllly awesome homemade knitting machine made old printer parts, two servos and a Picaxe-18x microcontroller. (I don't know what the last two things are at all. I just copied/pasted the video's description.)
Check it out:
Not much else here to report. Stayed inside the whole weekend---except for brief trips to the grocery store, the post office, and to a doggie costume contest in the park.
