Here's a chain you probably forgot, if you'd even heard of it at all. InkStop was a chain of small-format office supply stores that operated for just a few years in the mid-to-late 2000s, with locations in the Midwest, as well as the Denver, Dallas, and Atlanta areas if memory serves. Vanishingly little record of the chain is on the internet, and I've still yet to find a picture of the inside of an operating InkStop store. Despite the similar name and logo, they were not related to GameStop.

....after a warmish day wandering in the Brisbane Ranges National Park.......a cold beer, coffee and cakes, in great company.
I printed a sheet with several of the same model and started evaluating each of my current projects against it. It's an interesting exercise to go through.
I put the template up on my site if you want to use it (thanks to Rob for PDFing and adding a legend). Note: Credit to Jack Cheng for the original.
I was joking around with friends and family that the A-List from
Southwest doesn't really mean anything. I joked that there was no
first class, no upgrades, and they didn't even allow you to fly
standby (like most airlines). About the only thing you get as an A-
List member is occassional priority screening and ticketing lines
and . . . they check you in to your flight early putting you in as the
top 15 - 30 people to board the plane.
My last two flights I didn't take much advantage of that priviledge. I
sat in the back of the plane per normal situation for me, but this
time--as I fly on Sept 11th--I chose the emergency exit row. Why? I
figured, frankly, I'd help my fellow man on such a date as today. Now
that I'm sitting here though, typing away on my iPhone to create this
blog post, I'm enjoying crazy long leg room. That's not too big of a
deal seeing that I'm only 5'9" (well 5'10" if I stand up real
straight, usually only when I'm on a date with a tall woman or one in
some massive heels).
However the room for my laptop...now that is freaking awesome as hell
and well worth the 32 oneway flights needed to gain such prestigious
recognition as a Southwest Airlines A-List member. No need to scrunch
your elbows around trying to get to the mouse pad (or whatever it's
called). My screen isn't jammed up under the spinnie tray holder
dealie bob either so there's no reason to be freaked out that the dude
in front of me may get a sudden urge to press that button in his arm
chair and crush my screen to smitherings.
Life is good...A-List is good. Thanks @SouthwestAir you keep my
expectations low and over-deliver everytime!
Wait...free pretzels coming by...ooops...false alarm it was just the
honey roasted peanuts. ;-)
P.S. Sometimes it's just easier to blog on an iPhone.
Tall Pat (2015)
It's possible that you've read my lament about how 2015 has been a year of quite a few good records. Some of them have been very good, but what I think 2015 has been lacking so far is drop dead great records. The instant album of the year contenders. It may have taken until November to get there, but please everyone welcome Clearance. They have not only created a great record, but as it stands right now, I'm calling it and saying this is the best record of 2015 so far. There's only a month and a half left in the year, but it's going to take a hell of a record to knock Clearance out of my top spot.
A recurring theme for me is that I tend to favor bands that have a 90's leaning sound. I think that the music you listen to in those formative late high school/early college years becomes your base and there's always a part of you looking for sounds that excite you in the same way. Clearance has that in spades. Not only does this record knock me off my socks now, I'm positive they would have been just as much of a heavy hitter in 1995 as well.
Clearance is playing the sort of warm, jangly indie rock that I adore. Vocally they're very reminiscent of Pavement with a talking sort of delivery and obtuse lyrics. On the music side, while you can get hints of Pavement there as well, I tend to think that Clearance pulls together a slightly tighter sound. It's more deliberate, not as ramshackle and doesn't drift out into weirdo noise freak-outs as Pavement was wont to do. Rapid Rewards is thirteen songs of glorious mid tempo pop. I dare you to listen to the churning rhythm of "You've Been Pre-Approved" or the bright, cherry guitar part making up the bridge of "Rather Not Bother" or the fuzzy background squall of "Swiftboating (Onto The Reels)" and not be blown away.
I had very nice things to say about both of Clearance's prior 7"s. Those were some great songs and are absolutely worth picking up. But man, Rapid Rewards is light years ahead of those records and is without a doubt the best record I have listened to all year. See you in December for the Absolute Best Records of 2015 list. I'm saving a spot for Clearance right at the very top.

I use these for my rewards cards. I don't like sticking too many of these in my wallet and overstuffing it. That's usually why I end up having to replace my wallet-too many cards.
In the race to become the leading provider of goods in a global marketplace, industrialized nations are increasingly looking to develop smart technologies for production, and few have more to gain from doing so than Japan. Faced with a decreasing pool of skilled workers, demographically-challenged Japan needs to find new ways to drive its factories’ output. Its smart-tech firms, which have been developing intelligent robots and integrated sensory systems, look poised to help the country compete in the next phase of manufacturing, known by world production leaders as the Fourth Industrial Revolution.

This took some balls...literally.
This is the woman at the dunking booth at the Minnesota Renaissance Festival. It took me several tries to work up the courage to ask her for her photo. It also took many, many softballs.
I encountered her first on the morning of August 18. My son had a go with 11 balls with no luck, so I took my chances with 11.
On my 9th throw, I hit the target with enough force to drop the platform. She was holding onto a bar, so she didn't go all the way in. I think she was really surprised and didn't want to get dunked, so I didn't throw the last two because I didn't want to be rude by sinking her again. I was too chicken to ask for her photo, though.
In the afternoon, we came back to the booth. No one else was there, so I mustered the gusto to try again. I hit the target a couple of times, but not with enough force to drop her. I thought about asking for her photo, but a large crowd had gathered to watch me throw. The next fellow up got close a couple of times, but never hit the target square. I had stayed to watch, and I think he though I might be able to do it, so he dropped $10 for 22 balls.
This time, I hit the target at least four, if not six times, but couldn't get her to drop. I was emboldened enough to ask for her photo, but an even larger crowd had gathered. Either she wanted to keep business going or was a bit perturbed that I had returned that she didn't come down off the platform when I asked for her photo. I was a bit devastated.
On August 25, my friend Chris came to town and wanted to go to the festival. After wandering for a while, we came to her booth. This time I asked for her photo up front. I gave her $5 to throw, but told her she or her partner didn't need to sit in the tank. By golly, I missed every time, but she did pose for a photo. It made my entire weekend and was well worth the time and cost.

Earned while living in West Germany, Switzerland and France 1977 - 1980.
Walking usually 5 or 10 km.
Volksmarching (from German "Volksmarsch", people's march) is a form of non-competitive fitness walking that developed in Europe in the mid-late 1960s. By 1968, the International Federation of Popular Sports (better known as the "IVV") was formed by Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein and Switzerland. The national emblems of these four countries were placed in a wreath to form the symbol IVV. The IVV Headquarters is located in Altötting, Germany (Bavaria) and the official languages of the IVV are English and German, though French is also used unofficially.
Though walking is the primary activity, the volkssporting movement also includes bicycling, swimming, cross-country skiing or snow-shoeing, and other approved activities. Special provisions also allow for people with disabilities to participate in most events. Participants typically walk 5 kilometers (3.1 mi), 10 kilometers (6.2 mi), 20 kilometers (12 mi) or longer, on a pre-determined outdoor path or trail, with the aid of posted signs or markings, or a map and a set of written directions. Volksmarching associations offer incentive awards (including certificates, pins and patches) for participating in a certain number of events and for covering different cumulative distances over time.
Also included are some pins purchased in Moscow for the 1980 Olympic Games

These are my two matching Tissot watches. If I were Tom Sykes, I’d have at least 24 of these things. If he keeps them all running, Tom has to be spending close to $1000 a year on batteries and water resistance testing. I struggle these days, they look great and elicit all sorts of comments but my Apple Watch is so practical. I can leave my phone home and make calls. It tells me when I need to do things. It lets me read and respond to messages. It prods me when I’m being lazy. That said it annoys the crap out of me when it suggests that I’m “usually farther along by now”. Maybe it is time to go back to an analog world for time.
