Technowood



Don’t know if you caught on, but I’m having a wood craze. So are these characters.



Dutch designer Guido Ooms hunts through his local forest, and picks up sticks. He then creates these USB memory “sticks”. Dang. Smart. And looks really cool sticking (huh huh) out of your laptop. I have a mental picture of our dog gnawing on the end of it…




This Asian Desiger, Singgih Karatono, created the Magno radio. It’s wood too. Knobs, body, even the little ball on the tip of the antenna is wood. What am I going to make to join the ranks of these wood technologists? Would a wooden time machine burn up during time travel?

Kind of concerning that Sally Jesse Raphael has fallen so far. I suppose if you were on top one day, and a has-been the next, you too would be cradling wood as if it were your cat...

Dang brah, that's the Log Lady from Twin Peaks... we were watching season 2 last nite, and MANY characters wear Sally Jesse's glasses!

DOH!!!!! I'm sure you can imagine my chagrin! Jules was the Twin Peaker, not me, although I was always curious about what went down in that small Washington town.
