Have fun with fonts. Designed business cards for @whiskygingerxo recently. Had them printed on a flat black, with bright white letters.
Snowing inside a Skoda Yeti
A short clip showing the extent of the condensation issues we have had with our eight month old Skoda Yeti. We have had the car into our local dealer in Hamilton who helpfully suggested that the issue was ‘environmental’. It goes without saying that I was less than impressed with their conclusion and contacted Skoda Customer Services.
The garage have since been back in contact and will now carry out some further investigation into my cars problem.
I will update this information once the car has been back into the dealership.
Manute Bol and Muggsy Bogues. Vintage golden era NBA, the tallest and the shortest in the league at the time.
Portrait of Tor Johnson by Drew Friedman, now available as a fine art print, and also the back cover for our upcoming new edition of Any Similarity to Persons Living or Dead is Purely Coincidental, coming Spring 2012.
This is tangentially related, yeah? Tor’s been in his fair share of MST3K eps and RiffTrax riffs, after all.
My god, it’s glorious.

First of all, thanks to @carynorton for this most awesome portrait. It's simply stunning that he shot these the day of the bowling. It was fascinating just watching him get through everyone... exhausting in fact. For this, and much more... he's a legend. Also, again, to @chinfropro for his photobooth and @yourfavorite for his most awesome split polaroids. Obviously we all thank @Mackle for this whole thing and I'm sure he's tired of hearing it but he's a true legend! I need to thank @johnatcollege for coming with me to Nashville. It would have been a longer trip without him and he makes me laugh so hard. On that note, I want to shout out to @rnnbrwn and Claire too. They are the most awesome couple around and anyone who had the chance to meet them know what I'm talking about. Still keeping with my trip to Nashville I want to give a special thanks to @Ben (and his lovely wife Jess for lending him to us). He picked us up at the airport, drove us all around town and took us to not just Lynchberg but also Kentucky. John and I really owe our holiday to you - but not just for showing us around, no sir, for being fun... I mean, this guy is hilarious. I've not laughed so much in all my life (and I'm sure John feels the same). @Ben is the greatest and we both consider him a great friend... a friend for life. I think it's great too that @Maggie made it out to Nashville for the Throwdown and I think you'll all agree she's something else! I could mention almost everyone on the site here for being awesome but instead I will name a very short few (which I feel weird doing as there were so many great people) but I need to thank @OzzyNelson for my homebrew breakfast at his place and for teaching me to speak southern. I loved meeting @Dschonn and discussing linguistics and such things. I hope you get to school in Germany and somehow find your way over to visit us here in Glasgow. Also, @JamesC - who is in fact not a complete dick afterall but the sweetest gentlemen you could ever hope to meet. Emma and I shall wear our Boise State t-shirts with pride and hope you feel part of the scottish tartan army just the same. On top of this... thanks to everyone... you made me come back every single day and post even though I was busy. Even though I had things that needed done and people who demanded my attention. You made me love Whiskerino last time and this time and I hope to see a great deal of you again in Moustache May. Oh yea, and Richard (marmeluk)... he's the guy who introduced me to it before the 2007 Whiskerino started. Thanks man. Man, this caption is getting to be much bigger than I intended. I guess all that's left to say is "thanks @Emma" as without you being as cool as you are I probably wouldn't bother! xxx

Totally off-theme! But we had a great time at the Jack Daniel's Distillery today and just had to use this photo. It was sunny. We did the tour. We had lunch at Little Miss Fanny Booboo's (or whatever it's called). We saw buzzards... thousands of buzzards! We drove around. We saw the Human Being exhibition. We walked around the Nashville bars and saw some country music singers. Now we're back at the hotel and gettting ready to go out for more fun! Oh, and this morning I made my own waffle... AMAZING!!!!!!

There's only three in Team Scotland... but we'll all be at the Throwdown in Nashville. Nothing trumps the Scottish. Nothing.

Review 1) pick the right glass and the right temperature 2) Swirl 3) Drive by 4) Sniff like a dog. Now, the final stage, take a drink. Note not only the taste but also how it feels in your mouth and your throat when you swallow. Does it feel "thin"? Does it leave a coating on your mouth like a sugary drink? How about the aftertaste, really bitter? Smokey? Grassy? Okay, not a totaly captionbute as the flavours between whisky and ber differe quite considerable, but I really enjoyed @OzzyNelson's beer tasting tips. I can honestly say that they have helped me with my own whisky tastings forthwith. Naturally after class we go for beers... this is when Ozzy's advice really comes into play. Here's the gang saying hi.

@Emma spent a good while placing spaghetti in my beard tonight. Only 50 strands (but each one quartered - so 200 sticks of pasta) it was fun and weird and strangely something I have been waiting to do for a while now as I didn't do it last Whiskerino.

Man... flare... I suck at it... sometimes drinking is just more important. @Johnatcollege and I were throwing some crazy shapes in the Garage with a couple of guys from my work. Anyway... time to pass out... it is 4am afterall. Goodnight beardoes!

@mattyC is one of those guys. Not just one of those guys that like stripes... but one of those guys that love stripes. He's also one of the few people who I met on Whiskerino that I kept in contact with and chatted to over the last two years after the previous Whiskerino finished. Not sure if that made sense... but anyway, here's some whisky containers to look at (sort of looks like stripes... I guess).

Sooooo... whisky class tonight. I took home the best part of a Glendronach 12 yr and it's lovely. We tasted (blind), as well as this whisky, Arran 10yr, Glencadam 15yr, Balblair 1989, Highland Park 12yr and Jura 10yr (with a wee bonus Ballantines this and that). Anyway, I'm drunk and this is me before I started the tasting with my very good friend Andy. @Emma says I should use this photo. But I think that's just because her dad's in it.

Wee, sleekit, cow'rin, tim'rous beastie, O, what a panic's in thy breastie! Thou need na start awa sae hasty, Wi' bickering brattle! I wad be laith to rin an' chase thee, Wi' murd'ring pattle! I'm truly sorry man's dominion, Has broken nature's social union, An' justifies that ill opinion, Which makes thee startle At me, thy poor, earth-born companion, An' fellow-mortal! I doubt na, whiles, but thou may thieve; What then? poor beastie, thou maun live! A daimen icker in a thrave 'S a sma' request; I'll get a blessin wi' the lave, An' never miss't! Thy wee bit housie, too, in ruin! It's silly wa's the win's are strewin! An' naething, now, to big a new ane, O' foggage green! An' bleak December's winds ensuin, Baith snell an' keen! Thou saw the fields laid bare an' waste, An' weary winter comin fast, An' cozie here, beneath the blast, Thou thought to dwell - Till crash! the cruel coulter past Out thro' thy cell. That wee bit heap o' leaves an' stibble, Has cost thee mony a weary nibble! Now thou's turn'd out, for a' thy trouble, But house or hald, To thole the winter's sleety dribble, An' cranreuch cauld! But, Mousie, thou art no thy lane, In proving foresight may be vain; The best-laid schemes o' mice an 'men Gang aft agley, An' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain, For promis'd joy! Still thou art blest, compar'd wi' me The present only toucheth thee: But, Och! I backward cast my e'e. On prospects drear! An' forward, tho' I canna see, I guess an' fear!

Collections? Hmmmm... I've shared some of my cameras with you, displayed my tower of Kinder pods and offered you a dram from my whisky cabinet. The only other thing I could think of was my pennies (which I hadn't had out since last Whiskerino. So I built a wee pyramid out of them - I have no idea how much is there to be honest. Lots. It was either that or my DVDs again.

In short, a year or so ago my friend Andy, SirKevin, @Emma and I decided to do the West Highland Way. During which we met Bob! The legend you see in this photo sporting a rather fantastic Van Dyke. Having met such a profoundly amazing person we decided to stay in touch and periodically meet up with him for beers, chat and endless laughter due to his geordie charms. For my birthday last year Andy, @JohnAtCollege and I managed to meet up with him and his son, Adam, at Bridge of Orchy and had a most triumphant night (Adam is pictured here sporting a rather awesome Horseshoe moustache). So anyway, aye, tonight, as @JohnAtCollege mentioned earlier... we all met up for drinks. Lots of drinks. Lots and lts of drinks. In this photo, behind me from left to right, is: Andy (ma good buddy), Nicola (his burd), Adam (Bob's son), Stuart (my wee brother), @JohnAtCollege, and Bob (the legend). Not pictured here, but was presented throughout most of the night, is McGoo (my good pal from uni) and Martin (my best friend from school). Also, at the beginning of the day, we met up with SirKevin (who I feel deserves a mention in this tale). Anyway... it's 2am now and I need tae get tae bed. Have a good 'un. Goodnight! A special thanks to my brother Stuart for coming out tonight... he made it awesome!

So SirKevin came over to do some art tonight. He is doing a different form of art every month for the year. So tonight he painted and I was his muse. I also painted him. Very arty night all in.

Things you may or may not know about me already (5/5): I'm coming to Throwdown... yes, @johnatcollege, @rnnbrwn and I are making the trip from Glasgow to Nashville to see this Final Chapter out properly! I have but one question for you all, as I do the @elldub scratch... ...who else is going to be there?

Things you may or may not know about me already (4/5): I get a bit of stick from friends about my beard. It's thin, sparse, patchy, fuzzy, weak and has a weird pattern (it seems to part under my chin and sweep back up round to my ears. But you know what? It's mine. Okay, it's a kind of shitey beard... but I like it.

Things you may or may not know about me already (3/5): I drum in a band called VAGUE ( ) SPACE. Although we haven't played together for some time now and haven't got much of a following I am still very proud. We get a bit of a bad wrap and people often rip the piss - but I like us. Why not have a wee listen?

Ear just started working again... not perfect but at least I don't feel like I'm underwater. Thought I'd celebrate by watching Die Hard With A Vengence with wee @Emma while finishing off a lovely bottle of malt. (Oh, and I drank it from a glass... I'm not that rock and roll)

Okay, so things didn't work out as planned today and now I have a cut in my ear canal and I still can't hear with my left ear. I have another appointment with the doctor on Monday... so still feel shitty - but back to work tomorrow. This is my mum. She's been looking after me today. Say hi!

Just like last time - I'm afraid I still have no tattoos. But this is ink (of a sort). @Emma and I decorated glasses last night to put tea-lights in. I thought I should share mine with you today.

Hello, SirKevin here! Ten years ago I got a Casio Wrist Camera as a xmas present, ten years later @revgoomba told me aboot todays theme and I raked out the nostalgic treasure. Unfortunately, technology has superseded the downloading system. The camera works on IR and the adaptor was a 9 pin reader, which modern technology seems to have left behind. So digging out an old laptop that had a 9 pin port, I was able to send the picture onto the computer, or so I thought. The old laptop ran on Windows 95 and only had a disk drive. The watch program was on CD and only worked on Windows 98. So taking that as fate, we went for this alternative. See you in May, Kev!

Sorry guys... hectic day. My mum and dad treated me and @Emma, my sisters Aimeé and Gillian and my wee brother Stuart for a lovely Christmas lunch (stole a quick snap at dessert - my mum appears to have avoided it). After this @Emma, Stuart and I went into Glasgow to meet @johnatcollege, our buddy McGoo, my god friend Sharon and her daughter Aimee, @Emma's sister Jennifer and my good friend from work Neil to watch It's a Wonderful Life in the Glasgow Film Theatre. It's now fast approaching midnight and Stuart and I are at my folks house watching a film before sleeptime (which is very soon). Santa is coming tonight! Merry Christmas beardos! Have a good one!

Life is full, full of surprises! This lunchtime I took a photo for @johnatatcollege - so I feel this is a pretty good opportunity to introduce him to you. I have been friends with @johnatcollege for many years now and recently he decided to join in the Whiskerino fun with me. He missed the sign up window (to be honest he'd probably be shamed by now for not posting regularly enough anyway) but shaved on the 1st of Novemeber nonetheless and three weeks later he's still with the rest of us - scruffy and awesome! He has set up a tumblr account and is growing and showing in his own little way (so if you use Tumblr, you could follow him there): http://whiskerinoatcollege.tumblr.com Say "hi" - some of you will be seeing him at Throwdown with me in February.

Firstly, I slept in today and didn't have time to get the old kilt on again so this is as non-casual as I could do. Sorry. Secondly, do you know how long I ended up waiting for a clear moment in George Square to snap this shot?

After talking to @hale I remembered I had bought a dirty little AGFA Super Silette for just £4 from a car-boot sale in Edinburgh. I had taken it home all excited and cleaned all the insides, inspected all the obvious components (and they appeared to work enough to use), loaded it with film and carried it with me for a few days snapping now and again. That was months and months ago and I had forgotton all about it. The counter is broken and I couldn't remember how many I'd taken, but this morning I snapped another couple and handed it in for an hours developing. It worked!
