moss: May 2015
http://mxmossman.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Comics, travel, tech, pop culture, analysis. Today on my bike ride to work I saw something that made me think about how bikes and cars interact on the road. It was a nice spring day, the kind that brings out both hard core bike fans and newbies. I was coasting down a mildly sloped hill on a street designated as a bike route. I was probably going about 15 or 20 mph. You drive too fast! I'm saving the world one pedal at a time.” That may be true, but being righteous doesn't make you right. On the other han...

http://mxmossman.blogspot.com/2015/06/for-stew-drummer.html
Comics, travel, tech, pop culture, analysis. For Stew - The Drummer. When I first met Stewart he was dressed up like a magic mushroom. Or maybe he was on mushrooms. I forget. It was at a Halloween party. He’s gone now, so I can’t ask him. Give me Type I, Beetle,. Karmann Ghia, Funky Bus. Squareback, Fastback, Scirocco or Thing. The new ones aren't as cool, but give any to me. As long as they're made in West Germany! I walked home under the stars that night. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). 20 Seconds ...

Comics, travel, tech, pop culture, analysis. New Year's Game Day 2015. For most people, New Year games are probably football. In my family, however, for the past couple years we've had the privilege of playing board and card games all day with friends. The family that hosted has an amazing wall of games, and Rael. Describes himself, among other things, as a "fledgling game designer.". Another card game was Sushi Go! The most involved game that I played was Small World Underground. SPAM Singles: Just rip ...

Comics, travel, tech, pop culture, analysis. 19 Years of Mugs from the Oregon Brewers Festival (OBF). Known as "North America's Largest Gathering of Independent Brewers," The Oregon Brewers Festival. Has been held in Portland, Oregon since 1988. I have attended for many years, but I didn't realize how many years until I started cleaning out my basement. Turns out, I have an unexpected collection of mugs from 1993 to 2012. Was the apostrophe dropped to become more inclusive? Fun fact: A child's sippy cup ...

moss: The trouble with simplicity...
http://mxmossman.blogspot.com/2010/10/trouble-with-simplicity.html
Comics, travel, tech, pop culture, analysis. The trouble with simplicity. The trouble with simplicity is… it conceals so much difficulty. Take for example, Leonardo da Vinci. He’s a complex guy. But how do you look him up? Under “D” for “Da Vinci,” or is it “V” because the “da” is lower case? Another tricky thing about Leonardo is that he died almost 500 years ago, and was born just about the time Gutenberg. So when I was reading this review of a book by Christine Romans. Wrong Although the quote “...

moss: Trading vs Gaming
http://mxmossman.blogspot.com/2015/04/trading-vs-gaming.html
Comics, travel, tech, pop culture, analysis. In a flash-crash news story about Navinder Sarao. I was struck how much it seemed to Sarao almost like a game. He didn't show outwardly his wealth, but instead treated it much like a score, an indication of his prowess. Couple this with the way day traders work, and I got this inspiration: What if I changed one word in the original story. I replaced the four letters "trad" with the letters "gam". Here is the result:. Sarao, who has been charged in separate civ...

Comics, travel, tech, pop culture, analysis. Marvin K. Mooney Will You Please Go Now? Any number of Ted Geisel, aka Dr. Seuss, books can be read as allegories. The Lorax.

moss: The Verge, Shaq and Shingy Bumped My Post
http://mxmossman.blogspot.com/2015/01/the-verge-shaq-and-shingy-bumped-my-post.html
Comics, travel, tech, pop culture, analysis. The Verge, Shaq and Shingy Bumped My Post. I noticed a bump in web traffic on my blog yesterday. Tracing down into the stats, I found a lot of the traffic was coming from a post on The Verge called " Shaq and Shingy hacked my brain with #brands. How do I fit in with Shaquille O'Neal, AOL's digital futurist David Shing, aka Shingy, and a conference on brand innovators? I wondered the same thing. Then I scanned down the article.
