#34 - Blog Pictures

In looking back through some of my posts (and also being that I am a designer) it seems that maybe my writing could be benefited by accompanying imagery. They'd be funnier too if I drew them rather than using proper pictures. I'll try this for a while and see how that works out.

#23 - Blog Idea #4: Hipster or Homeless

I write this before doing even the most cursory Google search, primarily because my idea has most likely already been realized in a zillion fashions. But if we had settled on just inventing the wheel, we'd never have invented tires or 24" gold dubs on which to put tires. Genius is in the way things are expressed. So, back to the blog. This was inspired by an incident from over the weekend where I came upon a dude who I genuinely couldn't tell if was a homless man or a hipster. I paused like one might if they think they heard a strange sound. I assessed my surroundings. I channeled all that I know about fashion, styling and the like. Yet still I couldn't deduce whether or not this man was in fact homeless or not. And I never figured it out either. I dont feel bad about my lack of resolution though. Even Scott Schumann (The Sartorialist) has been thrown off on occasion and he's sort of a professional. Anyway, I believe this sort of thing deserves a blog. Again, I'm certain one exists but whatever.

#8 - Blog Idea #2: The Blog of Blog Ideas

The night that the clouds parted and god himself shone down upon me (it may have been DeForest Kelly come to think of it) to bestow upon me the awesome idea of this blog idea, I had yet another awesome blog idea, quite possibly even awesomer than this one! That blog is a blog of ideas for other blogs! I am sort of a short attention span sort of person (which I believe there may be medication for!) so ideas come and go, but again, so they don't go, I blog. And since I'm so pressed for time due to the demands of my job, my social life and my tv viewing schedule, I only can dedicate some many minutes and brain synapses to all my amazing thoughts. I will start this new blog and it too will be awesome.
