maybe a little late to mention this, but today (aka the next 6-10 hours) is the last day for US residents to order stuff from the shop and have a reasonable chance of it getting delivered in time for x-mas.

12/10/06:interwebs
sorry i've been having some email problems for the last 4 days or so, if you've been trying to reach me and got an error, please give it another shot.

12/06/06:black fingers
Do you use newspapers for anything other than cat litter? Even if you don't, why not help my friend Rich get his work into as many of them as possible. It's (almost) better than Cathy!

10/29/06:Project Wonderful!
My friend Ryan has created a new kind of advertising system which I am trying out to help pay the bills!

Basically, anyone can bid on ads on this site, the highest bids get their ad shown. You can have ads shown for as little as free, or for as much as you are willing to offer/donate to the ramen fund.

It should be easier for people to use than google ads, and hopefully drive interest to better sites, blogs, shops, etc. We'll see how it works out! Thanks for the continued support and please feel free to let me know how you feel about the new ad system.

10/20/06:old wood
Almost forgot to mention that there are some great pics from the 'Its All Wood' opening up on Juxtapoz!
