morning mischief

I suppose this makes me feel a bit old, in a young kinda way. =P

freegums #2

Speaking of tees and music videos, it turns out that Bronques made a second promo for Freegums some time ago. (Peep that reversible t-shirt goodness.)

the tee d.a.n.c.e.

I’ll take LOLercopters for $200, Alex

I stand corrected. Nowadays I’m content if I can fill up at $4.09/gallon.

In other news, I blame China.

asian tuna burger

asian tuna burger @ Tarpon Bend

This was my UEFA finals meal at Tarpon Bend in the Gables. My friend and I couldn’t quite locate Fritz & Franz amidst the sea of German jerseys, so fortunately decided to go around the corner (great seats, refreshing A/C, people rooting for Spain…).

Seared yellow fin tuna, wasabi mayo, caramelized onions and pickled ginger.

I’m not so much for pickled foods, but the ginger was delicious. Not to mention the tuna, and the onions.(And the bread!!!)

on people’s renditions of wonderwall

*adds to list of things in which I can whoop S. Carter’s ass*

Oasis’ version of Wonderwall. Not for nothing, but um… I doubt he’d score anywhere close to 90% on vocals on Rock Band. On the average setting. Never mind the expert setting.

*brushes shoulders off*

speaking of old school blogs…

And speaking of long lived and quality in Miami, is tumiami blog the longest running (est. September 4th, 2004), active, constantly (and heavily) updated (not to mention bestest) Miami blog?

Sea lo que sea, *tips hat*

dedicated.

After a good 3 or so years, Critical Miami bites the dust... but in some ways it keeps on giving.

Blogging ain’t easy, and blogging something of quality with dedication, even less, that’s why my hat goes of to Alesh, and Rick, and Steve, and the tons of other bloggers who put in the time to update their blogs for my enjoyment. =] Lord knows I’ve tried, but in the 3.5ish years since I first began these interweb logs, my crowning achievement has been stringing together two 16-month streaks with at least one entry per month. (So far.)

You know it’s hard out here for a blogger. Specially when blogging doesn’t make that money for the rent. For most of us anyway. So yay for dedication.

But back to being critical about Miami’s blogosphere; CM might be gone, and SOTP, and Klotz, and Miami Vision, and Miamista (*sheds tear*), and yes even the dreaded Miami Metroblog, but the internets sure looks a lot different than when they got the ball rolling. Back when overloaded RSS feeds were strictly an NYC or LA thing, they got the ball rolling. Now, things are lovely. And will keep on getting lovelier (and prolly more terrifying all at once). But that’s how the internets goes.

So as others seem to take the helm of this blogging about Miami thing, Alesh goes on to More Blog About. And maybe one day I can decide what to dedicate my entire evenings to, or maybe even entire days. Interestingly enough, I was thinking/keep thinking about sticking with food and photography. Or something or other.

We’ll see how that goes.

let the viral campaigning begin

There’s already one out for Michelle, but where’s Obama’s?
