Seagulls + Doritos


This is just so ridiculously great.

"start quote

A seagull in Manistee, MI, has developed the habit of stealing Doritos from a neighborhood convenience store. He waits until the Manager isn’t looking, and then walks into the store and grabs a snack-size bag of cheese Doritos. Once outside, the bag gets ripped open and shared by other birds..
.
The seagull’s shoplifting started early this month. Since then, he’s become a regular. He always takes the same type of chips.The Manager thinks it’s great because people are coming to watch the feathered thief make the daily grab and run, and that’s good for business, and especially since customers have begun paying for the stolen bags because they think it’s so funny. However, the Manager did say, ‘This is Michigan, and if that seagull starts to grab a 6-pack o’ ‘Bud’ to go along with the Doritos, I may have to put a stop to it.’
Thanks to Rose D. for this article..

Frito-Lay just got a free Doritos commercial and mascot on their hands. I wonder if the seagulls' faces and wings are permanently stained orange from the chips?

I've had a lot of time on my idle hands lately....due to well, not really working yet. I drew a squirrel. That is all.

Tenori-on! (aka kickass LiteBrite)


I came across the Tenori-on about a year ago but never thought that it would really take flight until today when I came across (somewhat unshamedly from the urbanoutfittersblog) an actually impressive and fun use for the thousand dollar plus synth-lite brite.

Such a good cover, I'm going to make a mental note to learn this on guitar tomorrow....maybe I can rig up some Value Village LiteBrites on some timers and foot pedals to emulate the same effect?

Always, always, always back up your work...damnit


Otherwise you end up staying up all night for no reason, an useless 136mb file on your hands, and a late project hand-in for a potential employer. There goes a good job perspective...damnit. The hunt continues.
