So I’m trying to move some more mosaic tiles out the door, so I have more mosaic tiles on sale. I’m selling the full sheets with a great shipping discount when people buy 10 sheets at a time. Come people, you need more mosaic supplies!

I’m trying to get a couple more of my blank domains to do a little bit of work here on the internet:

metafiller is an RSS aggregator layout that has 6 different feeds listed and updated.

cancer news world is a wordpress installation with a highly tweaked, but simple layout with some advertising thrown into the mix.

I have to figure out a way for all these domains to at least pay for their registration fees, which actually shouldn’t be too hard if I give it a little effort.

Ok, I know I’m a little behind the times, but I never saw a single episode of The Golden Girls during it’s initial run. In fact I don’t even know when that was, I haven’t taken the brain power or time to decode the roman numerals in the credits…

Anyway, my impression is that it is some kind of time capsule for the 1980’s. I lived during the 80’s, graduated high school in ‘83, graduated from the UW in ‘88 and went to a crazy pentecostal church in the 80’s, but I never saw so much mauve, taupe or so many shoulder pads! What is the deal with the shoulder pads? Maude looks like she is ready to play middle linebacker! Actually she looks like an early version of the Vorlon in Babylon 5.

Just wondering if anyone knew if there was some secret I can’t figure out…

we had tofurky for txgiving. it was pretty yummy, but didn’t make me sleepy.

My friend Susan has begun to deposit words on the internet at The Kenyon Review. She has a review of a book by Nico Vassilakis, Text Loses Time.

a little sunset in Hoquiam…

Or is it theater? I am too lazy to look up the distinction.

I’ve been trying to get the house done. I had to fight some irregular corners while installing the IKEA kitchen cabinets, but all the boxes are in. Now we just have to buy the shelves and doors and handles and hinges and this lamp…

I have been tweaking some new wordpress installs, podmodern is going to be a site about modern furniture and other things like that.

And it’s not in a little plastic tub! OK, just kidding. I decided to throw a little party/art show in my humble little shop space in downtown Hoquiam. It’s just for fun and hopefully to meet and greet some people here in town. It’s quite surprising how few people actually walk around the center of Hoquiam in front of my shop space. I’ve got it all cleaned up and now I have to hang the pictures that people have brought in and get some lighting tweaks done. Hopefully I’ll have time to get my things printed and framed by Friday afternoon. Some details at

So, I’m still trying to go through my long list of domain names that need to have actual ’stuff’ on them. I thought I’d try to patch up my main money making site’s relationship with google. So I updated (actually went back 3 iterations) Mosaic Tile Arts to see if I can get back in the goo’s good graces. We’re going to have a little art show here in Hoquiam, on the 28th at my shop at 506 8th St. Come on down!

So, it was a long, slow slog through Shampoo Planet and it was all right, a solid B. Maybe a B+ since I went looking for anything new by Mr. Coupland, finding The Gum Thief which will be released next month. But, for now, I’m going to try to blow through a couple Kerouac works.
