Sure it’s morbid and probably been over exposed through the years from folks like Warhol, but I’ve never seen this photo before and am bizarrely drawn into it’s story.

I should remember to be a bit more morbid and get back to taking photos.

 Last weekend the woman and I took the Triumph for its first real ride up to Pawling to celebrate our countries independence in the woods. Riding 70-80mph up the Taconic through green woods, over reservoirs, and around tightly packed rolling hills was heaven. Oh and the time up in Pawling was great, too. (Chopping down trees, building bonfires and generally cultivating rough manly hands.)

I need to remember to both visit my friend in Pawling more often and just plain get out there and ride away from the city more often.

Maybe these are getting better… Hmm… I need to remember to keep trying.

Last time I caught Ladytron, I was surrounded by hundreds of women getting their makeup done and getting glamor shots. This past Wednesday, I managed to catch Ladytron again under more normal circumstances. The show was good, though it was pretty obvious that their older songs had a more butt shaking simplicity to them that really got the crowd going (as going as New York crowds get at concerts).

I did by their new album Velocifero the next morning, so… maybe it’ll grow on me.

The real standout for me, though, was the opening act: Data Rock. I gotta remember to check these matching red tracksuit wearing guys out and perhaps catch them again sometime. (The drummer was especially awesome!)

As I mentioned before, I loved Portal and even after spending hours on Call of Duty 4’s multiplayer servers, it’s probably still my favorite game of all time. So, when I heard that Valve would have official Weighted Companion Cube plushies made up I tried to grab one… of course, so did the rest of the entire internet. Not able to get one right away, I waited until they were reissued and grabbed one. It came a few weeks ago and has been spending its days on the couch. One morning I decided to snap a photo of it and then last night that photo turned into a desktop.

Grab the desktop wallpaper now at MyBestDesktops.com and enjoy.

I should remember to spend more time with my WCC so he doesn’t get too lonely… or watch too much TV.

Wow… where have I been!? At least I remembered to do another painting… hopefully I’ll remember to keep doing them.

Behold: a galaxy suspended in a glass cube… For $700. I need to remember to put this on my christmas list this year… for no apparent reason.

Finally, a fast one… I gotta remember to keep up the pace.

So, I took some shots of tulips the other day when my woman bought some flowers to display during our Easter Brunch and turned them into some desktop wallapers. I’ll be posting them all to MyBestDesktops.com naturally.

Anyway, they feel great on my desktop and sometimes bring a smile to my inner face.

I should remember to use bright desktop wallpapers more often.

Yeah, another painting… but it’s taking me too long to find time to paint.

I need to remember to make time…
