As humans on Earth, we can create a vehicle to travel on the Moon that’s safer, more comfortable, and more efficient than ever before. We still can’t develop an effective, efficient means of transportation on our own planet? Not that I have any solutions other than one of these things:

Vandalizing Terrorists

I saw these last Sunday while passing through West Seattle. Both of them stuck on the glass of Keybank on California Ave SW and SW Alaskan St. I haven’t seen any like this before and they conjure up thoughts of sarcastic patriotism. As if we couldn’t have guessed they were mocking America’s capitalist and Christian [...]

While out in Virginia this past week to visit my older brother, niece, and nephew, I set out to explore a bit of Hampton on my own. I ended up downtown and somewhat aimlessly wandering around. As I searched for a simple cup of espresso (somewhat of a rare find it seems) I ran into an octagonal building on one of the docks which bore the name: The Cousteau Society

Saw this up in Fremont and thought it was one of the better stencils I’ve seen in a while.

Traveled into downtown Seattle and walked to Lenora St. Somewhat bummin’ around, a couple things caught my attention. At the Lenora St. Bridge, I read the historical information and looked around at some of the other public postings made by the city. There was a list of places and things to do in Seattle and [...]

While visiting some friends in Los Angeles, CA last month we got together at Paco’s Tacos for dinner. I don’t think I’ve ever had homemade tortillas in my life before this.

This is a great interview, especially when recognizing the differences in how languages communicate concepts and ideas. An example of this in the interview is when they are discussing how people refer to elders, or when they speak of a woman whose Ojibwe name means:
“the way the moonlight will wrinkle on the water on [...]
