It is likely that I am just upset that it’s not a TiVo remote, but I really think this remote has some incredible design flaws.

38 of 365 is a refrain from Radiohead’s Karma Police #Inkscape

This is a lilting, ending refrain from one of my favorite songs. Karma Police, from Radiohead’s revolutionary album, OK Computer. The lyric lays over an original shot of Seattle, which is an amazing and beautiful city in the shadow of a mountain.

So this poster is my way of saying that I’m not ready to stop using Inkscape for daily sketches, and that other open source applications might be used to complete an idea. I could have done this in the GIMP, but because of the text heavy and hard-edged content, it made more sense in Inkscape. From time to time, I enjoy a cigar, and when you walk into a cigar shop the first thing you note aside from the aroma is the vocabulary and culture of cigars. I wish I had this poster when I was learning about the different styles, but hopefully others will benefit from this.

I could not say it any better than this:

“A Seinfeld reference. Can be commonly used when you are angry, or also when someone is complaining about something trivial, as in:

Katy: “I don’t like my car because it only has two cup holders”
John: “These pretzels are making me thirsty.”

Yesterday’s sketch was a greeting to everyone to enjoy the holidays however they see fit. Today’s sketch shares the way that I prefer to celebrate the holidays. It’s one of my favorite parts of the season, in that trees with lights make me feel warm inside.
