David Lynch on Not Coming to a Theater Near You →
Hopefully you all know about this site. You do, right? Right?
Anyway, one of the most insightful and intelligent film review sites is doing a retrospective of David Lynch’s ’90s works in film.
While reading today’s entry on Lost Highway, I noticed a link to Twin Peaks in the midst of the article. And holy crap, I had no idea. Here’s a sample, but you need to visit the...

“Turn on the television. We have a wedding channel on cable TV devoted to the behavior of people on the way to the altar. They spend billions of dollars, behave in the most appalling way, all in an effort to be princess for a day.

Lights
birdhouseinteriors:
After much searching, I have finally found a couple of light fixtures for the showroom/office. I was looking for some vintage, swag style lights that had some character and discovered these adorable girls at my favorite antique store in town.
Light #1. I’ll call her Daisy.
Light #2. Meet Sunny.
Close up of Daisy. She’s pretty.
2 down. 2 more to go. Best job...

Before and After House Tour - Part 1
birdhouseinteriors:
Thought I would share some before and afters on the good ol’ blog. First up is the dining room of a 1940’s brick tudor.
Before:
Gross, completely no light, ugly carpet and that chandelier makes me gag.
After:
Added french doors to access the backyard, took up the ugly carpet to get to the hardwood floors, new paint and new sputnick light.
Better, right?

Adorable notebooks that will be available at the store! I’m keeping one of the houndstooth books for myself.
Also, I scored this vintage lamp while having a delightful time up in…

Birdhouse: Let Me Introduce You... →
Meet the new animal print chair and funky geometric ottoman.
Most times I repaint the frames of chairs that need updating. But this beauty, and her worn arms, demanded that I leave her as is. I love seeing the history in this chair, and with it recovered in a bold and more modern print, I…

While I am the developer of the webOS foursquare app, this post is platform agnostic as it reflects on issues related to all modern mobile GPS devices.
As a developer of a foursquare app, I search the web for lots of foursquare-related posts so I can stay on top of things. I’ve noticed (mostly on…
