@graphikjunkie Yeah, it wouldn’t be hard to auto-update. But it only comes around once a year. And changing 1 or 2 chars is kinda symbollic.

Almost time for the biggest update to Stopdesign all year… the copyright notice in the footer. ;-)

@jasonfried I’ve wondered the same about Jobs and MacWorld – maybe for “oh, and one more thing…”

My wife got 6 hours of uninterrupted sleep for Christmas. At least that’s 6/8ths of her wish.

Watching the Chuck Jones adaptation of Dr Seuss’ How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and loving the familiar and comfortable animation style.

Christmas lights succesfully put up for this holiday season, all without me falling off the roof.

So I guess it’s a little cold here in the Bay Area when I go out to a thick layer of frost on my car.

Landed… and very glad to be home. We started this jouney (with baby) over 12 hours ago.

SFO was a ghost town the other day, so was CVG when we arrived. Same story today. Has all air travel really slown down this much?
