Opening Day

I thought I'd share this Ernie Harwell video where he explains the definition of baseball. Enjoy...

Update

Just an update as to what I've been up to...

- Spent the last two weeks working on a project in Detroit, which went very well.

- Clinched a bracket with the Kentucky win on Sunday (one among friends, not the family one) Never would I have imagined winning after only selecting 1/4 final four teams and 0/2 in the final.....Gross

- My parents came into Chicago last Friday. We went out for dinner at the Rockit then saw Bill Cosby at the Chicago Theater. At 73 years young, surprisingly Bill still has something left in the tank.

- I've been working on my portfolio as per norm, here's a few new logos I designed:





- And here's a snowboard I put together:


- I'm geeked for mlb opening day. I'll be in Detroit for a wedding during the Tiger's home opener, so I hope to head downtown and check out the action.
- Tigers have 25/1 of winning the world series, not too shabby
(White Sox and Twins are 20/1)

- Lastly, here are a few pictures i took of the Band

Portfolio

The past few weeks I've been working on my online portfolio. It's still a work in progress, but it's starting to come together. What it consists of is a collection of ads and graphics I've designed. It includes: billboards, logos, t-shirts, banner ads, etc. Feel free to check it out by clicking on the screen shot below. Also, if you have any suggestions regarding how you think I could improve it, they would be greatly appreciated. Enjoy...

Dogs

If you've checked out Ben's blog, then I'm sure you're aware of the situation with Jeff's Facebook wall. I go out of my way to saturate his newsfeed with dog related material. To commemorate Jeff's love for man's best friend, I designed him this t-shirt. I hope he likes it!





Since we're on the topic of dogs, here's two bonus photos of Bella...

I was practicing "street photography" editing for this pic, so it's super over-processed. Be sure to click-to-enlarge...



On this photo I used a cross processing editing technique:

Moped

So, I hear Ben got a new ride today. Found a video of a fellow rider. He should track this fella down, they could film their own version of Wild Hogs.

Sax Man

This man is an inspiration to alto sax artists like myself.



Unfortunately I've lent out my sax, but upon its return, I have every intention of learning this song. Prepare for a serenade...
