Help Me Plan The Texas Toast Tour

Posted on 18. Mar, 2010 by Glark in Blog

We are going back to Austin in May for the second annual Eat Through Austin tour (and Conan!) after which I’ll be ditching Tara and driving around Texas looking for weird shit and natural splendor a la the Atomic Tour and the Subatomic Tour.

We got some great hints for places to eat and visit for all our previous adventures so I’m hoping you guys can toss out some cool places to eat and visit while I’m driving all over Texas. I’m looking for cool photos opportunities, weird and wonderful locations (both natural and man-made) and good (vegetarian eats) outside of Austin but inside of Texas. Here’s an example of something I will dig: the Contrabando movie set in Big Bend Ranch State Park and like almost everything listed on Atlas Obscura.

The stars at night! are big and bright!…

Flickr Explored Photo Titles or High School Poetry?

Posted on 24. Feb, 2010 by Glark in Blog

Here are eight lines. Which are titles from today’s Flickr Explore are which are lines from poems by high school students?
  • This is your life, and it’s ending one minute at a time.
  • Music is love in search of a word.
  • Light toward hope.
  • Sometimes I feel lost.
  • It’s bound to melt your heart.
  • Turn around and prove to me it’s real.
  • So This is What it Feels Like to Be Free.
  • Let Sail Your Dreams – Do you dream in colours?

The answer is that all the above are Flickr photo titles but if you guessed painful high school poetry for any of them we can’t fault you because Flickr seems like that most of the time. You are awarded full points!

Heat Rash Contest!

Posted on 11. Jan, 2010 by Glark in Blog

Well I am sick again and if history has taught me anything it is that within the next 36 hours I will develop a non-itching but nevertheless horrible-looking heat rash on my upper chest and shoulders. Now a lesser man would just let that pass without comment but I kind sir, I am not a lesser man. I am a bigger man.

Guess the time of the appearance of my impending heat rash and you can win a Glarkware shirt of your choice.

Anytime between Noon ET today (Jan 11) and Midnight ET tomorrow (Jan 12) is in the mix. Closest guess to the appearance of The Rash wins. In the event of a tie the person with the name best suited to be an action movie star wins.

Submit your guesses in the comments. You can login with your email or use the Facebook Connect button.

Update: Winner winner, free shirt dinner!

Screamin’ Eagles!

Posted on 16. Dec, 2009 by Glark in Blog

soldier-poster

Here is my entry for the Team Fortress 2 War Propaganda contest. It’s for the Solider — who has the battle cry “Screamin’ Eagles!” — and his fight against the black one-eyed Scottish Demoman.

This reminds me of my days reading EGM in the early 1990s wondering why people would spend all that time doing envelope art. Now I know. Customized weaponry.
