The yarn keeps getting longer

September 28, 2008

There are some great knitting books out there that I will get to in a subsequent post, but life at Dying Media has necessitated the consumption of EXP Syrah 2004 (a breakfast wine using the rating scale posted here), St. Francis Old Vines Zinfandel 2005 and a bit of the Carver Sutro Palisade Vineyards 2004 Petite Sirah. The Zin was a knockout, plush, fruity and assertive without leaving a black eye on your tongue. More on the petite sirah at time permits.

Dying has gotten everybody on board except a union so they sent a notice to the house saying they will sell or close the rag in early 2009. Everyone will be terminated with one week per full year of service as severance. I like the lovely partings gift promised in the buyout a lot better. Let’s hope this gets sorted sooner rather than later. I’ve planes to catch.

I’ve been studying Photoshop, InDesign and HTML in three weekend classes. I’m feeling like some sort of digiholic now.
