Blog neglect

I have neglected my blog.  A lot.  I've just been swamped with projects, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.  Hopefully I will make this a habitual exercise, as that will be the ONLY way I'll keep it up.  I'm currently getting some nostalgia and inspiration from an old favorite site of mine: http://www.tokyoplastic.com/.

 

Check it out and be amazed. 

An explosion heard off in the distance.

This Gizmodo article sums up perfectly my growing anger and frustration with Apple.  "Chickenshit" I think isn't even vile enough to describe their tactics, but this article is so eloquent, and not laced with anger and cursing as the one I was going to write.  Have a read and enjoy:
