Here's a favorite quote of mine from Tropic of Cancer p.99, "I have found God, but he is insufficient. I am only spiritually dead. Physically I am alive. Morally I am free. The world which i have departed is a menagerie. The dawn is breaking on a new world, a jungle world in which the lean spirits roam with sharp claws. If I am a hyena I am a lean and hungry one: I go forth to fatten myself."

This is my latest logo creation/theme, again, inspired by the creation of an ultimate frisbee team. This one really speaks to me, but, alas, although the theme and name were chosen, the logo itself was shelved. I hope to put it to print regardless one day. I like it's clean lines, and immediately recognizable shape as a hummer. It also strikes me as fairly unique, something that will draw your attention. A real classic. I'm probably full of it.

I was in Kelowna, BC last weekend for an Ultimate Frisbee tournament. It was probably one of the better tournaments I've been to in a while. The group I played with were really fun. We had a rough start on Saturday, going 1-3, but rallied on Sunday, ending up 3-4 and playing in the B Pool finals. We accomplished this, even after partying hard the night before. The tournament coordinators had booked a bible camp for the venue, and I doubt those haloed grounds had seen that much debauchery and tomfoolery in years.
In keeping with my interest in creating ultimate logos, I came up with a catchy team theme: Gil Rock-ers! "We'll sink your boat!". We would be named after the rock that recently sunk the Queen of the North (BC Ferry). I created "Gil", as shown to the right. It was eventually vetoed by the team (thank god) as being too recent a disaster. I got my idea for Gil from the "Rock Biter" character from the Never-ending Story. I've added the only pic of the Rock Biter I could find on the net.

Made a trip to Vienna to present research at PIRA conference. The conference was interesting - Vienna even more so. I was able to haggle with gypsies in German over trinkets at a local market. Spoke with cab driver near my age about politics - gave him the impression that Canadians and Americans like to pretend they're different, but in fact are quite similar. Stumbled across St. Stephan's Church while out getting dinner one night. Was awe-struck. See pic to left (I found this shot on the web).
