Sometimes the Universe Conspires Against You

And sometimes you just want to crumple the universe into a little ball and shove it where the sun don't shine...

In other words, we are having technical difficulties. I'm talking to you, Time Warner Cable, supposed "purveyors" of the internet. My connection is intermittent at best, while Karly's is non existent. Hopefully K Dawg will be back tomorrow in full force with an ultra fine post for you dudes. If not, it might be because she's in county lockdown for bombing a company whose name rhymes with Mime Corner. Let's hope it doesn't come to that.

Friday on a Tuesday

The post I have for you today is looks a lot more like a Friday post (short, sweet, pretty) then a Tuesday post (long, labored, totally hilarious) but, you see, I was working on a traditional Tuesday-style post when I came across this Friday-style content and I just could not keep it secret until the end of the week. I don't even think I heard a word of the song in this video I was so enchanted by all the scenes.  If you're at the office, turn off the volume, you don't need it, it's just that rad

Normally the recreation of famous works of art in a music video would get a giant eye roll from me, but I like that these dudes aren't taking themselves too seriously or trying to show off their art history knowledge.  It's just fun.  I like it.

Thursday you'll get a long post.  Promise.

Bureaucracy Chic

I know I have been threatening to post images of my new and improved office for a while now and still haven't gotten around to it.  It's just that I still have one empty wall and our resident photographer has her hands full with a 17 pound distractenator named Ike.  In the mean time, I bring you images from offices around the world in part of photographer Jan Banning's series, Bureaucratics
