I'm believing you misunderstood my intent .... if I actually had one. It's been awhile since I've posted to Tweak Today but I always enjoy following the daily challenges.

As to my mission, right now I'm communicating on an Apple computer (logo in the upper left), There is a Holmes branded fan on the breakfast bar and to my right is an Epson printer. Also a Presidian handset to remind me I'm supposed to call someone back.

Perhaps I should have restated the mission as "Take a photo/scan of the first branding you see today"?

Good call! Folks also get a tad excited when you start snapping photos of their tags/autos. :)

I didn't realize California DMV still issued the whale tail plate. Last year the marine artist, Robert Wyland, demanded 20% in royalties go to his art foundation. Story here: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25213452/

It's entirely lovely, hearth warming and worth the effort (if not the allergies). I applaud your effort and wish you the merriest of holidays!

@discomeg2 I agree about it not being what's normally though of as an allergy. Had a friend who OD'd on steamed shrimp. The doctor told him he'd have to lay off them for at least a year and then try again. I'd get so sick off of avocado, I'm afraid to try them.

lmnewman — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 14:43:45 -0800

This wasn't always the case. I used to have an avocado tree in my backyard & ate them several times a day. Guess I overdid it.

Couldn't find the card reader for the phone so here it is on the phone itself. It's a photo of a recent MUG (Mac User Group).

Enjoyed the blog post! Got me to thinking about the quantity and variety of sculpture I could capture in 4 hours. I thought there might be a web site devoted to local sculpture & found a Los Angeles group called Save Outdoor Sculptures! (SOS!). They have an interesting web listing with lots of links to the actual sculptures: http://www.publicartinla.com/sculptures/sos_laartists_a-c.html

Glad to finally know where this came from originally. I received it in an email with a drawing of a hex key underneath. Subject of email was "IKEA is NOW selling CARS!" :)

Oct. 19: Take a picture of a weapon you would use in the event of a zombie apocalypse. I actually took photos of my pirate catapult side weapon back on the 19th but never got around to posting them.

Know how you feel about granddad. Mine was a window artist who did gold leaf. Pretty much a lost art today. Love that you maintained this!

Procrastination Central here. I've read it's actually a problem with perfectionism. We don't start stuff because we expect the results to be perfect. One of the usual suggestions is to set a timer and allot a certain about of time to work on (fill in the blank) whether you finish it or not.
