The only thing better than chocolate is... Nothing...
$6.99 at Whole Foods. Not only are they organic and dairy free, as all good chocolate should be, they are suprisingly great. I’ve had better, but they cost $2 to $3 each. There are at least twenty per box by my count. Posted via email from Jaxon Brooks | Comment »

I went out and watched people drink and eat meat. ;)   Not like I don’t watch people drink and eat meat several times a week, it’s just ironical.   Picture is the view from Matt’s in the Market at Pikes Place Market.   (hehe, it says pubic.) Posted via email from Jaxon Brooks | Comment »

Obama's inaugural speech tag cloud analysis
The primary words used in Obama’s inaugural speech were must, new, and nation. However, many other words were close behind: America, today, people, etc.   In contrast former presidents each had a very prominent single forerunner as most used word.   Bush: freedom Clinton: century Reagan: government  ...

Obama's love for science
The finest moment for science, in Obama’s speech, came quite a bit after his declaration, “we will restore science to its rightful place.”   “The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small, but whether it works - whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified. Where the answer is...

Circuit City sale no bargain
Turns out that Curcuit City was bought by a company that is liqudating their merchandise. Problem is that, while they advertise up to 30% off, the majority of items are only 10% off. And it appears that the base prices are not the previous Curcuit City prices, but MSRP. I also noticed their stock was limited on bigger ticket items. Posted via email from Jaxon Brooks | Comment »

Yet another 3d pinhole camera made from a jewel...
The latest camera is named Yama, the Tibetan God of Death. In Tibetan Buddhism, Yama will see all of life and Karma is the “judge” that keeps the balance. The skull was blessed by a Tibetan Lama for its current journey and I’m working with a Tibetan legal organization that is sending me to the refugee cities in India. Yama’s eyes are cast from bronze and silver with a brass pinhole in each. A...
