The Mutter Fucking Museum (Joke)

Finally (after 26 years), someone noticed that I made a joke. The Twitter relay (typo and all) went as follows:

mutterjoke

The Mütter Museum is a medical museum located in the Center City area of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It contains a collection of medical oddities, anatomical and pathological specimens, wax models, and antique medical equipment. The museum is located at The College of Physicians of Philadelphia. -Wikipedia

I can now die with or without dignity.

Famous Fingers

Hah… a photo I took when I first got my 1st Gen iPhone made its way onto another technology blog recently. My gnarled hands are in beautiful contrast to my pristine, jailbroken iPhone, in this particular shot, LOL.

More than anything though, I’m proud and amazed that so many people choose to use my photos, and this one in particular, over and over again to accent their blog posts.
