okayrad.com is coming

So I once upon a time came up with a word that I thought seemed fun and unique. That word was Postrad. I asked myself the kind of questions I thought the word may inspire. What does postrad mean? What does it represent? Is it Spanish? Is it gibberish? It is a little of all of those things. But I have since fallen in love with another name, okayrad. What is okayrad? It is what you say when A) affirming a question and B) punctuating its sublime nature. Used in conversation as follows:

Q: Want to ride down to the beach and hop in the lake?

A: Okayrad!

(Grammatically speaking, you may argue that it should be "okay, rad." You are missing the point.)

Okayrad.com will be the home of my portfolio page for everyone who wants to hire me for their web-site work. It will also have a great blog covering the ins and outs of web development, with a page reserved for the do-it-yourselfer. It will be rad, ok? Post-rad.com will remain a dumping ground for silly diversions and rants.

Okay?

Rad.

Coolest Flash Thing Ever

Check this out. It is awesome.

Awesomeness here.

Help the Hot Tomato!

You like pizza, right? You like bikes, right? You like Fruita, right? Okay, you might not know what a Fruita is, but if you do your mind probably sets adrift a memory bliss. Hot Tomato Cafe, one of the most bestest pizza places on God's green earth, is getting a kick in the pants by their landlord. They need to move their venerable pizza Mecca somewhere else, and they need the money to do it. I can't imagine a world without their "hot pie" double entendres.

Click the pretty image and buy a shirt or something. You will be a better person for it.

Swedish Athiests Are Hardcore

If this billboard, the product of close-minded fear-mongers, is correct (which it isn't), then I finally understand why Sweden is so goddamn metal!



Sociopathic gun-toting kids murdering for candy- if this isn't the subject of a Swedish death metal song, it should be.

Must... Not... Buy...

$43 for a 2 gig flash drive? I know, that's insane. But $43 for a flash drive that transforms into Ravage from the Transformers? Must... Resist... After all, you know that he's going to tell Megatron what kind of data you're storing. Or worse yet, he'll tell Michael Bay. *shudder*



Also, in the world of bikes, is an example of "unique" riding form leading to a silly accident with a speed bump. Enjoy.

Postrad has gone semi-legit

I have used the Postrad moniker for the first time on a web-site I built. I didn't link to the blog, because it really isn't *ahem* a serious web-site. I realized after I went live with Dragonfly Coffee that if someone googled "postrad," this silly blog would be the first hit. Go ahead, check it out. I finally beat out the site with the vosotros conjugation of the word "postrar!" Celebrate good times, come on! So I figured it was worth noting to anyone visiting in regards to the Dragonfly Coffee site understand that I will have a real portfolio site up soon, and that I am a diligent professional.

Deadwood + Family Circus = Win

My friend David sent this to me in a response to my Al Swearengen post a while back. My life has been filled with heart-ache and misery as of late, so the curt wisdom of Al (the Tao of Deadwood, if you will) definitely resonates with me. It's also good to see those little bastards from Family Circus getting a dose of unfiltered reality.
