Cool construction with Cans by Architects and Engineers...
The iCan is great...

After the competition, cans go to food banks for the homeless and/or needy.

Autumn in LA

So it is fall now. The clocks fall back one hour tonight. And if you're like me, your thoughts also fall back to unresolved New Years resolutions. What haven't we completed or even begun on our list? Two months are left of 2007 and we'll be on to the next year with new or rolled-over resolutions from the previous year. In January, I posted a condensed list of resolves on a small piece of paper that I taped to the front of my computer. It has been and is a daily reminder of all my hopes to accomplish in 2007.

I have done my best but fell short of completing only three of the 10. These will definitely show up on next years list:
DOUBLE SAVINGS. (fell short by xK).
CLEAR MIND (I'm not even sure how to accomplish this but it sounds good).
CLEAR SKIN (found a facialist, so I'm on the right track).
EXERCISE MORE (isn't this always the goal).

New goals in 2008 would be:
FIND LOVE
KEEP LOVE
TRAVEL MORE
WORRY LESS
BE YOUNGER
