Another NFL inaction figure

Posted on April 23, 2013 by Steve

Even the Star Wars line has characters that act as bench-warmers (Bespin Guard #2, Death Star Protocol Droid) and this thing spews 12 different “Christian” cliches to politicize football even more unnecessarily.

You might want to double check this handyman’s toolbox…

There was a boardgame theme at work for something and this was an entry from my co-workers. Danielle was a trooper.

Posted on April 14, 2013 by Steve

Since my little display showing the checkout line was a big hit, I decided to expand it by added employees/customers and a cafe expansion. I started off with the generic pack of 12 people but they were all white people. … Continue reading →

Apple badge reader or centurion?

These aren’t my Chucks

Posted on March 28, 2013 by Steve

These belong to a fellow employee I bumped into at the cafe. My initial question was how did he manage to get them from Japan since all attempts with the assistance of my co-worker Ayako failed (the e-mail said the … Continue reading →

Playmobil diorama #1 – Apple Cafe

Posted on March 27, 2013 by Steve

Traditionally I like to give people pirates when they get hired by Apple (another story why). Finding a female pirate that wasn’t a part of an expensive set proved to be a futile quest so I decided to build the … Continue reading →

My new iPhone camouflage

Posted on March 19, 2013 by Steve

Oh, my beloved ice-cream sandwich! How I love to lick your creamy center! You’re not like the others. You like the same things I do: Wax paper. Boiled football leather. Dog breath. We’re not hitchhiking anymore. We’re riding!

I did quiz Wyatt and his brothers if they knew what a Hipster was, they said they did but I don’t think they know the specifics. However since he’s only 10 I’m confident there’s a minimal age requirement before one … Continue reading →

New Chucks for February 2013

While walking near downtown, going to the wrong destination for Sunday’s GWD match before the Geek Bowl, I spotted these businesses. Pretty clever and groan inducing.

Waterloo Records’ Muppet Mascot

Posted on February 5, 2013 by Steve

He can be spotted at the back of the store, where you can place special orders from the friendly staff members. I think whoever put this Muppet together did a hilarious job since the character fits a stereotype about record-store … Continue reading →
