"Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish."
There are a lot of posts out right now dedicated to Steve Jobs passing yesterday. I debating heavily doing one myself. And obviously you can see my decision.
I was thinking last night how big of an impace Mr. Jobs had on my career and life. Not only would my first computer not have been the first iMac out there, you know the big alien-shaped blue cone head one, but moreover, I may not have gone into design. I loved Macs and loved designing on them. If I had to design on a PC, I may never have done so. Period.
So, a heartfelt "Thank You" goes out to him and his family and friends, the people that touched his life, so that he could touch mine so greatly.
I will leave you with this great wall paper design from The Fox is Black. You can download it here.

so when i saw these images/illustrations from the Cote D'Azur, you guessed it, i quit, and got on a plane pronto.
ok. well, not really. but you wouldn't blame me. would you?
and of course illustrator Catherine Orchard is coming with...
