“Headphones Are Stethoscopes” is the name of my weekly show on WCWM 90.9FM, the local college radio station at William & Mary, where I am a law student. We’re located a mere block away from Colonial Williamsburg, and I like to imagine that all the blacksmiths and butter-churners listen to me on their anachronistic boomboxes.
Usually, [...]

In midst of exams. Current assignment is a 2,500 word take home test. Writing about Constitutional Law.
My printer ran out of ink because I’ve spit out too many drafts. I have considered using my typewriter. I just printed out a test page. I think I type faster when wearing the powerglove. It’s so [...]

Hangin’ Pictures On My Wall

I stumbled upon a Chicago design firm’s website recently. Coudal Partners describe themselves as an “ongoing experiment in web publishing, design and commerce.”
Right now, they’re doing something called “Swap Meat.” They receive lots of unsolicited creative stuff in the mail and usually return the favor by sending out some of their own goods.

Lots of little digital from today…

I co-hosted a radio show on WCWM (90.9), the college station here at William & [...]

I think I might have discovered a brand new way of studying that doesn’t take up as much time. You basically just leave a video camera running on your book, and then you later just watch it in fast forward. It totally works. I’m not sure why nobody else has thought [...]

The Best Part of Waking Up
November 3rd, 2006 · 5 Comments
From the makers of plastic frisbees comes a giant leap forward in coffee brewing technology — the aerobie aeropress coffee maker.
I had read about this bad boy on the Internet earlier this year over on Boing Boing, and now it’s cool enough for the folks at Cool Hunting, so I guess it’s about time it [...]
