Not really a design choice but... in collage my future mother in law asked if we wanted my fiancée's rocking chair. We both said "no" because we both lived in dorm rooms and there was literally no space for it. A few years later I found the Herman Miller Plaque from the chair sitting in a drawer - and I thought "oh no." She had given the 1983 Eames molded plastic cushioned rocking chair (the kind they give to employees children when they are born) to Good Will. I thought she just had it in storage.

I had my red/green blue/yellow colorblind husband take the test. That was fun. He was basing some things off of dark to light..I think he scored around 80 something. Despite the score, he had the colors lined up in the generally the right direction. Take the Test: How Well Do You See Color? |

I do wonder about the accuracy online - I took a physical version of this test & they had the test takers sit in a "tent" with a specific color balance. In the physical version (at a CMG meeting) I think I scored a 2. (You could never score a 1 because if you had one tile in the wrong spot, two tiles were actually swapped.)

Affordable, yet still-good restaurants. We do have some trendy restaurants 3 miles away from where we live, but I'll never eat there. (The quality doesn't justify the price.) I recently moved to my new location and I think I was a bit spoiled by the 4+ grocery stores (Including a Trader Joe's) within walking distance - most under a mile - from my old place. Why do we have only 2 Trader Joe's within the perimeter of Atlanta? (I previously lived in Chattanooga where the best grocery store was literally walmart...so I went from terrible to great to mediocre.) Long story short: grocery stores! And I hate to cook.

When I was ten, my grandparents moved from their home - I walked around the property, visited all the rooms.... but my last stop was the pantry. I loved the smell of my Grandmother's pantry. I knew that the fragrance was something I couldn't photograph or really take with me - so I just stood in there for a few minutes before we had to go. Saying Farewell to a Home |

We have a Siberian (1yr. 9 months.) and just went on a 3 mile hike in the woods with her - she walked one quarter to one half of it. We carried her in a camping backpack for the other portion. (She's big enough to look out.) Would You Leash-Train Your Cat? The New York Times |

We are currently toilet training our cat on the City Kitty. Its going very well - though it does take time & an extra toilet during the training period. Eventually no litter at all! Cat Litter Tech: Keeping Your Home Free of Odors |

It would make more sense to compare the 2000 imac to an ipod touch: an even greater price difference with roughly the same specs... the imac wasn't a phone - compare to something that isn't a phone. Final Frame: What a Difference a Decade Can Make |

Using the Fong dome takes more flash power fyi. Not necessarily a bad thing, but you'll go through more batteries. If you don't care about looks, you can make a fine "tupperware" diy version. Low Light Photography On a Budget Roundup |
