Ping Pong Movie Poster



I thought the theme of this movie was "do what makes you happy". It makes Peco happy to win, and it makes Smile happy to let Peco win. The japanese part of my poster says "i wish you happiness" in japanese. Well, according to Yahoo answers it does.

I thought for this post I would post two things for y'all.

1. The first one is helpful. You might already know about this, but this is a great place to download different fonts to your computer. The majority of them are free which is great when Photoshop or Word don't have the fonts you are looking for.  http://www.dafont.com/

2. The second, something to make you laugh. She has other videos you can check out on her web page - some are hit and miss, but some are hi-larious.  http://vimeo.com/11139998

Enjoy.

Finding #4: Emily Jacobsen: Pinterest

I just discovered Pinterest, a new social media site that is basically a virtual pin board! You collect photos of things you love from wherever you find them online, tag or "pin" them to your profile, and then categorize them. It is a genius idea. If you are anything like me and are constantly saving to your hardrive or sending emails to yourself, you're going to love this.

I was finally invited to join Pinterest yesterday so my profile is brand spanking new. Pinterest is still in beta mode, so if you like what you see, get on the waiting list to get an invite! The link to my page is at the bottom of this post.

Below is my profile home page where you can see each of my separate pin boards for different categories I felt like creating tonight.
Below is my board titled "NYC Apt" filled with pictures of ideas for decorating a small studio/apt.

Oh The Things You Can Do With Your Hands- Finding Stuff 4 -Elise Meservy

Hands are phenomenal. With them we can hold our cereal spoon, write a letter, play the piano, dry a tear, or help a friend up. Oppositely with hands we can also pick our noses, slap someone's cheek, or pull a trigger.

Here are some of the fantastically unique things people have come up with using our hands for:

What can you do with your hands? Or better yet, what will you do with your hands?

Findings #4: Things that shouldn't be found...

Itunes is fantastic. I love the fact that I can get any song, anytime and have it in the palm of my hand within minutes. However, with this new technology comes the death of album art we once had with albums and CD’s. My good friend Jeff Bridges is trying to save the exquisiteness of really bad album covers by including some of the worst album covers ever on his web site.
