Walk Your Children To School Day Equals Love <3 Photographic Evidence: That is all. Happy Wednesday! http://www.mostlymuppet.com/2008/10/08/parental-math/ I have no idea why the phrase I'm using as a post title, "Tentacular and the Octophants", jumped into my head this morning, but it did. Likely culprit: a cool print of an Octophant that's now become a t-shirt. This might make a good birthday purchase. I'm just sayin'. [caption id="attachment_2238" ... http://www.mostlymuppet.com/2008/10/07/tentacular-and-the-octophants/ I never plan out my birthday - presents I want, places I'd like to visit, things I'd enjoy doing - and so my best birthdays have been the one where Jenn (who knows me perfectly) does the heavy lifting. See my 30th birthday recap for evidence. Anyhow, since it's a Friday ... http://www.mostlymuppet.com/2008/10/03/the-birthday-list/ Stop me if you've heard this one before, but I'm now head-over-heels in love with Mad Men. Actually, if you've read this blog at all in the past month, you're probably sick to death of it/me. Still, I've got a few links to share to either fuel the fire or burn you ... http://www.mostlymuppet.com/2008/10/01/mad-man/ There's a thread here, but I don't want to be too obvious about it.

Namely the fact that I had healthy (and sometime unhealthy, considering the outcome of the UGA/Bama game) doses of two of Anheiser Busch's latest products. First, Landshark Lager. Which is essentially a Corona ... http://www.mostlymuppet.com/2008/09/29/signs-of-the-apocalypse-part-i/ You know, today's morning commute was much like all the rest. Unremarkable except for a slightly less congested ride no doubt due to the gas shortage in the Metro Atlanta area. And then this conversation started from the back seat. Jenn: Neigh Owen: [Unintelligible] Jenn: Hey Seth, how do you neigh Me: Excuse me? Jenn: You ... http://www.mostlymuppet.com/2008/09/25/onomatopoeia/ In honor of National Punctuation Day (Thx, Buzzfeed!), I'm going to ignore the topic altogether and focus on more vocabulary fun. Besides, I butcher commas and quotes anyhow. I was never a big believer in either "when in doubt, leave it out" or "less is more". More is, ... http://www.mostlymuppet.com/2008/09/24/punctuated/ For a long while, I've had this crazy idea about private spaces - theme parks and sports arenas, mostly - utilizing Google's mapping technology to provide people with rich, interactive experiences whether in the planning stages, at an event or just re-living an experience. Well today the Official Google Blog revealed ... http://www.mostlymuppet.com/2008/09/23/mapping-creatively/ So now that I'm deep into month two of the iPhone I thought I'd give you an idea of what I really like and dislike about the device, especially as a gaming platform. Here's the clear winner in my hands: reMovem free: Let it be known that of all the software - ... http://www.mostlymuppet.com/2008/09/22/iphoning-it-in/
