My photo of a rainy London appeared (with permission) in a Japanese magazine. I love the internet! I’ts kinda dark and in black and white but still, someone wanted to use it, and that’s cool. Original here.

Hello, my name is Shawn. This is where I put things. This site has been active since 2002. A lot has changed since then but basically I'm still writing ridiculous articles about ridiculous things. You can also look at my Flickr photostream which is a lot of fun if you aren't blind.
This site uses Simplelog, a simple Ruby on Rails weblog application. I explain why I use it in this entry. This site is hosted by Dreamhost.
I've made 4 short films that are currently available online. I also host a semi-regular comedic podcast with Garrett Murray that has a 5 star rating on iTunes!

…I was in Paris.
This post is only for the locals. Fair warning. There’s this sign I’ve been passing by for over 3 years now that reads “EM EE UNSH.” I took a picture of it once. The sign is missing letters and I’ve never been able to figure out what it meant. To be honest, I never tried to figure it out, I would just sort of repeat it to myself “Emeeunch… emeeunch…” Sort of annoying.
Anyway, Flickr user emsef solved the mystery when he commented on my photo and pointed to this picture where in the comments he explains that the sign belongs to Embee Sunshade Co., Inc.
EMBEE SUNSHADE CO.
So now you know. Thanks, emsef.
I actually made those biscuits I wrote about recently. They came out really well. Then again, they are primarily butter, cheese and cream so they’d be hard pressed to disappoint. Next time I think I’d add more pear. It was interesting that the crunchy died pears ended up being the textural replacement for the expected ingredient bacon. Bacon would have been complete overkill but the crunchiness was right on.
Drying the pears was also interesting because I had never done that before. They were actually pretty satisfying on their own. I may have to try drying some other stuff. Beef jerky?
I randomly saw this picture of Batman Cups in the “Everyone’s Photos” feed. Part of this set of Batman Merchandise. It brought back such strong memories of my obsession with Batman and going to McDonald’s specifically to get those cups. The lid was a mini-batman frisbee! I had at least 3 of them. Probably still in my closet at home. Awesome.
