Juli stumbled upon a cool site on Friday. Thanks to the folks at OfficeMax, you can now turn anyone into an elf. Take a look and see for yourself. It’s easy and only takes a few minutes. In addition to making anyone into an elf (that you have a digital photo of) you can also call an 800#, make a voice recording and add that to your message. Ingenious. Hope you all enjoy.

A couple weeks ago I decided to shave off the beard…and for good reason. It’s far too hot to have a beard during the summer. But before Beardo died, some friends thought it would be good (or at the very least funny) to document the transformation into a clean-shaven face. The transormation goes as follows:

• Full Beard
• Burly Chops/Goatee
• Bushy Goatee
• Handlebar Mustache
• Mustache
• The Hitler
• Clean Shavin’

I hope you enjoy Death of a Beard as much as I had fun making it.
If you’re having issues with the link above, you can check out the same Death of a Beard photos in our gallery,

While Scott and I were out of the office last week on a snowboard trip to Monarch, Colorado, the guys at our office (360ideas) thought it would be really funny to pull a prank on us.

They turned our office into a wintery ski slope complete with chairlifts, skiis, snow, and a warm fire. Check out these photos documenting their poor excuse for an office prank.

I was checking out some videos on Google the other day and ran across a kid who takes wheelchairs in a new direction. Check out this video of a kid who is pioneering the way for Xtreme Wheelchairing. Make sure to watch the whole thing so you can see the first wheelchair backflip.

My buddy Scott found this link the other day. It’s a game that tests your brain power and eye sight. There are two pictures that look similar only there are three subtle differences. Play the game and report your score after your done. Don’t list out the differences and ruin the game for others, but just post how many you found and approximately how long it took. Have fun.

After being completely impressed with Coudal Partners’ SHHH! Cards, I had the idea of making a set of cards that expresses my distaste for a bad parking job.

Parking Awareness & Reforming Kinship (P.A.R.K.) is a simple concept. Download these cards. Print them off. Cut them out. Stick them in your car. The next time you pull into a parking lot and can’t park because some yahoo has taken two spots, slip them one of these cards and voice your anger.

It was Brandon and Don’s birthday at work yesterday. Brandon (turning 30) and Don (turning 60) were bombarded with black streamers and balloons as if a bomb of Over The Hill jokes went off around them. That afternoon there was a party for them…including a special guest. Within minutes after the party photos were circulating over the internet, including their very own brandonanddon.com website.

Good stuff. Lots of action and suspense. Although rated PG-13, it’s still suitable for kids. Follows the book closely…from what Juli tells me. Juli will write more later on this review.
