New Things

Today I posted my very first website to the world wide interweb.
It's merely an under construction page and it takes a while to load
because I have no idea how to web programme.

In other news, the first music video for my musical project,
Triceratron, was recently finished.

Knock knock, Nike: China's at your door

Knock knock, Nike: China's at your door
Oregonian Monday January 21, 2008

The story is about the growing population of footwear brands and supporting services in Portland, including the most recent addition of the "Nike of China" Li Ning. And a certain little known branding and marketing firm Frank Creative was mentioned. Check out Sue's quote. (on page two of article)

Second Office

Another great night at the Boogaloo. Eat. Drink. Listen.

A little art for your day.

This is my latest painting. Enjoy!

Dude, we're getting the band back together!

Scouting for the next shot, somewhere in the Sierra Nevadas. All I know
is that it was cold and there was something over there. See it? Over there.

Lobster Claw Turkey

If you did not get a Lobster Claw Turkey card from your intern this
thanksgiving, you probably need to get a better intern. Thanks John!

Car-Pool Lane (minus the car)

With today's gas prices we believe alternate transportation is the only way to go while being eco-friendly of course. Having an office by the beach we make sure to take advantage of our location...even implement that into our commutes. Our marketing team takes this concept to a whole new level. Carter bikes along the beach every day to and from Manhattan Beach. However, Tyler took a different approach. With much planning and research Tyler has mastered his commute of swimming to work. He jumps off the jetty in El Segundo, passing Manhattan Beach and arriving at Hermosa Beach swimming a total of 4 miles. He drags a waterproof bag with a change of clothes and his running shoes for his 5 mile trail run home. I believe Portland has a thing or two to learn from the commuters of Los Angeles. "Portland ranks No.1 in bike commuting." (see article) "Frank ranks No.1 in Pacific Ocean commuting." (see Martha)


Off Manhattan Jetty. Only half way there.

Water temperature at 6:30am was a balmy 67 F, air temperature 60 F.

8:30am finished and getting ready for work. Turn lots of heads, mostly surfers, some dolphins.
