For those of you who love coffee this post should help you visualize all the possible espresso combinations. It is a very good illustration.

Good laugh!

If you are looking for a good laugh I strongly recommend checking out The Lonely Island. I started to watch some of it while in a really quiet place where other people were working and I couldn’t help up burst out laughing. It is soo good.

New Hampshire

Monday, November 5th, 2007

Today I ventured out a little bit. I made it as far as Kittery, Maine which is near Portsmouth, New Hampshire. I started out simply enjoying the fall colors and the mountains, which I am not accustom to in flat Illinois. I eventually stopped my drive in Manchester, New Hampshire. I hung out in town for a while and went to a local coffee shop.

After a strong internal pull to see the ocean, I ended up driving all the way to Maine. I was able to get quite a few photos, although not as many as I would have liked. There wasn’t too many good areas to stop. Well, it is probably not a good idea to trespass on peoples property when there are no licensing fees to own a shotgun or rifle and the state motto is “Live free or Die!”

I will be posting photos tomorrow on Daily Blur and on Flickr hopefully tomorrow. It has really been hit or miss with a wifi connection for me.

Vermont

Sunday, November 4th, 2007

For the next week or so I will be on vacation. Unlike most bloggers who announce they are taking time off and really do, I am stating this to indicate that I am going to publish more frequently. Over the last year or two I am sad to admit I haven’t really had much time to put effort into the becoming project. It generally takes a week vacation to give me time to rework things. Most of you know that I have been placing most of my free time on Daily Blur and wedding stuff. If you are ever anxiously awaiting new content I suggest you take a look at my photoblog.

Currently I am sitting in a coffee shop in Keene, New Hampshire. I will be staying in the lovely town of Brattleboro, Vermont. I don’t have too much planned this weekend with the exception of getting some projects done, and heading over to Sheldon Brown’s bike shop in Massachusetts.
