birthday hints | Something Out of Nothing

http://www.jakefowler.com/tag/birthday-hints

Something Out of Nothing. Tag Archives: birthday hints. It’s lightweight and yet more versatile than any multitool I’ve owned. It has a bit driver, which you can change out with one of many different bits, flathead, phillips, hex, etc. It’s not cheap, on Amazon. It’s around a hundred bucks, plus more for the extra bits. I had better start saving up my spare change! Next up on the handy-dandy tool front, the Snow Toolbelt. Intended for skiers/snowboarders, I could see using this frequently. The Nelson Atk...

A Duck | Something Out of Nothing

http://www.jakefowler.com/a-duck

Something Out of Nothing. Soliloquy of a Logical Duck. Purple eclairs, Old grey hares,. Spaghetti falling out of my head! Alligator cars, Elvis lives on Mars,. Storms blowing through the shed! A bit of string, a real pink thing,. My train is turning red! Yellow hearts, Great big carts,. A cow turns into lead! Lovely flowers, Bridal showers,. A fish gets tired and goes to bed! Luscious pillows, Weeping willows,. A lonely car recalls the dead! Magic posters, Roller coasters,. A frog is waiting to be wed!

Something Out of Nothing. A Machine for Loving. In the words of Iggy Pop. Two weeks after my arrival, Fox died. I was stretched out on the bed. And tried painfully to jump up. He wagged his tail nervously. He hadn’t touched his bowl once. He had lost a lot of weight. I helped him to settle on my lap. For a few seconds, he looked at me. With a curious mixture of exhaustion and apology. Then, calmed, he closed his eyes. Two minutes later he gave out his last breath. I buried him beside the residence. The N...

Apple | Something Out of Nothing

http://www.jakefowler.com/tag/apple

Something Out of Nothing. Oh Oh It’s Magic! After days of calling to check if my local Apple Store had the new Magic Mice in stock, I finally got a positive response: “Yes, we have a few in stock.”. I rushed out to my car, quickly drove (following all applicable traffic laws) to the Apple Store, walked in the door, barely responding to the warm greetings of the friendly Apple staff, headed straight to the peripheral section – lo and behold, an entire stack of beautifully packaged Magic Mice/Mouses. A cou...

Something Out of Nothing. Spicy Coconut Shrimp Soup. Maura’s had a pretty bad cold all week, so although we had reservations for a nice Valentine’s Day dinner on Saturday night, we cancelled them and stayed in. Instead we made an incredibly tasty soup. It’s very quick and easy, but so full of flavor! A few of you asked for the recipe after I tweeted. About it so here you go! Spicy Coconut Shrimp Soup. 3 1/2 cups fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth. 1 cup sliced mushrooms. 1 tablespoon light brown sugar.

Something Out of Nothing. Introducing My Next Tattoo. I got my first tattoo on my first wedding anniversary with Maura. I’ve been trying to decide what to do for my second the moment I walked out the door of Exile Tattoo. The Two Headed Beast. Yesterday we met with Chet. And I have a tentative date set to start inking! He seems excited to work on Chris’ designs, yesterday he said “It’s not worth doing if it’s not a challenge”. It should take between six to eight hours in...He’s getting one soon as ...

Something Out of Nothing. Two years ago today Maura. And I got married! We spent the weekend in Lawrence at the Eldridge Hotel. The hotel has an interesting history. The existing hotel is actually the third iteration. The first – The Free State Hotel – was burned down by the pro-slavery sheriff Sam Jones, the second by Quantrill and his raiders. Here’s the view from our Mass. Street window:. But wow, my mouth is watering just thinking about them! They also have a great bar and wine selection. May 27, 2008.

Brian Eno | Something Out of Nothing

http://www.jakefowler.com/tag/brian-eno

Something Out of Nothing. Tag Archives: Brian Eno. Same as it Ever Was. This has been quite a concert season for us. First we saw Midland Theatre. Then we drove to Denver to see Sigur Ros. Followed quickly by Beck. The next Monday at the Uptown. Sigur Ros was great, especially considering the location. Red Rocks is a beautiful place, and the sound was awsome. Beck was technically good, but he seemed burned out somehow, like it was just another day on the job. And a couple movies:. October 20, 2008. But t...
