I’ve Unsubscribed (I Use This Word Loosely, In A Non-factual Manner) From Apple Emails No Fewer Than
I’ve unsubscribed (I use this word loosely, in a non-factual manner) from Apple emails no fewer than 15 times in the past few years. It has not yet stuck, but I hope that someday I’ll at least stop getting the internal memos.

Pixel Strut
Another snippet from the Pixel Art Project, which is one of a few but the main one going. This dudes got a pretty wicked strut. With as few pixels as I had to work with, it turned pretty hard pretty quick but I like the product. Check out the making of here for all the janky steps.
Legends of Rock #02 - Neil Young
Next up, the most American Canadian ever to grace us with rock and roll music. There isn't a whole lot I can say about Neil Young other than the man's a true Legend Of Rock and his run of 5 albums from 68-74 is unrivaled in my estimation of rock singer/songwriters.
A Neil mix for proof of prowess.

Being from Maryland, this baseball season was the best anyone could have hoped for. Despite the Nationals having the best record in the league, my allegiances remain with the Baltimore Orioles. Tonight, they battle for the wild-card spot, so in support, I drew the new/retro logo that I'm quite fond of (glad to be over the lifeless bird silhouette). Go O's.
This spring I was asked to create a suite of wedding collateral for Meg & Mike. I worked up a few invites, some table cards, and even a stencil for a special wedding brew. It was an ultimate pleasure creating this package for a super sweet couple. Check out more of the work from the wedding right here!

On Mustaches
During May, my friend and I entered into a collaborative competition of mustaches. We both vowed to grow a stache and it turned out to be a good time because neither of us really needed to be seen by anybody potentially important for about the whole month*. The first few days were easy because I don’t like shaving and only do so every three days. After a week, it got pretty hard. Anyone with sparse facial hair will know the embarrassment and overall badlooks of a thin beard. It wasn’t for a few weeks that I could shave and have my face noticeably be-stached. Once this happened the hardtimes got worse, because I looked very much like a guy who is up to no good - but I powered through, growing the heck out of this rough stuff. I ended Mustache May with a serious fumanchu. Since the end of the month, though, I’ve been unable to shave it completely off. I even went so far as to allow myself a small soul-patch and it concerns me. I took inspiration from a French zombie movie where my darkened, Parisian doppelgänger had a superlative handlebar with flavor-saver. We’ll see where my facial hair takes me. For now, have a look at the evolution.
* we can argue about how you can meet someone important at any time, but this really was a long shot considering what we were doing and where we were.
Hair Brain
I believe my hair is gaining majority control over my brain. Evident after shampooing twice this morning, one application on top of the other, already lathered and shaped to my daily specifications. I need to haircut shop. Which celebrity’s photo should I take to my lady?
