It might mean more if his chair came from Ikea…
“Pope decries selfishness in economic crisis”- Yahoo
Hmmm…context is a bitch, ain’t it?
(Looks like they changed the article title and the photo - next time, screencap)

Photo essay: The next President of the United States
What a strange road it’s been.
Happily the photographers, like modern signposts, have marked the way. Here’s a wonderful collection of photos from the Obama campaign..

iPhone: Matchin’ color like it’s 1999….
Perhaps the UGLIEST iPhone app website to date….and it sells a color designer.
Okay - I’m a designer and I’m picky (although you can’t tell from the dumping ground this blog has become. Still…).
There’s nothing to prepare you for the 8-bit color flashback that is the Raisix Inc website, set up to sell its ColorMatch software for iPhone. (Click either link - it’s a 1-page site)
With all the aplomb of a ‘90s Powerpoint slide, it just dumps itself to your screen, as if sent by a color fax minion from Hell.
Enjoy - I’ve linked a 24-bit PNG screenshot (440k or so) to the thumbnail above, just so there’s no question that I’m messin’ with the site:
THRILL to the derring-do of creating a website with a 16-color pallet!
AWE yourself to the crispy masking techniques and the ever-so-tactile moire!
AMAZE your other designer friends! They’ll LOVE you for it!
Both cliqcliq Colors and Color Expert must be quaking in their boots!

Because Freedom Means Cookies…
I promised I’d bake if Obama won, so it’s biscotti with white and dark chocolate drops, “pecan pie” muffin bites and chocolate chip cookies, all from scratch.
Of course Freedom means Cookies - You don’t get chocolate chip cookies in Communist countries. You get borscht!
