“A song like “Shackler’s Revenge” is initially average, until you get to the solo—then it becomes the sonic equivalent of a Russian robot wrestling a reticulating python.”

A lot of thought goes into the design of fonts.

Here’s a little write up describing design techniques that we probably all take for granted.

rock climbing rejuvinated.

November 3rd, 2005 by mike d. in A Day In The Life...

currently eating: hardboiled eggs.

I’ve been mildly bummed out about my rock climbing lately. I’ve been stuck at that 5.10d/5.11a stage at the gym. I can zip up the 10c/d’s but stumble up 11a’s. Well, after a brief climbing trip last night I think that this is soon to change. There are a bunch of new routes at the gym, including some 11’s. And last night I DOMINATED an 11. It wasn’t clean, but it was powerful. Seriously folks, last night was epic.

Climbing is addicting. I can’t stop thinking about it. On Friday, I will attempt to climb that 11 cleanly. Perhaps I will have someone take video.
