all you kerning nazis will love this!

The banner I did for AdFed Mad Men and Women of Minneapolis event that Periscope is sponsoring tonight. The bottom says “To the original Mad Men and Women of Minneapolis, thanks for putting our town on the map”.

and today we won the 2012 northeast minneapolis pedal pub race!!!! we barely made the list since we got there right at 3pm after coming back from rock climbing/camping at taylors fall an hour before the race. our team “flasher” (to flash is a climbing term meaning to successfully and cleanly complete a climbing route on the first attempt after having received beta of some form - via wiki) made evil knievel costumes in the parking lot, and won first prize and this badass bike!!

ps. i know, flasher, climbing and evil knievel doesn’t make sense, but that’s all we can come up with at last minute…

so i did this yesterday. my first ever experiencing real rock climbing! have been climbing at VE since january but climbing outside on a perfect summer day at taylors falls overlooking the st. croix river is something else. pretty amazing stuff.

when I start noticing changes I wasn’t told about

when I realize the cleaning lady is in the restroom

when I’m the first in the office to find the newest internet thing

pitching a bunch of concepts that nobody likes
