The craftsmanship of the frame is just as important as the subject of the illustration. I ache with the desire to be illustrating work like this.
Wall Street Journal features @CraggieBrewing in Monday’s article, “Where the Action Is.”
Asheville, a Blue Ridge Mountain town of 75,000, has 10 breweries, with two on the way. That can’t compare with the 40 in Portland, Ore., but it stacks up to other beer havens like Milwaukee and Boulder, Colo., which both have fewer than a dozen. “Asheville is definitely on the map and well recognized in the craft-brewing industry,” says Paul Gatza, director of the Brewers Association in Boulder.

College students aren’t good at using Google
Sarah Kessler covers a study on students poor research habits.
“I don’t really know what there is to use,” said one first year accounting major who participated in the study. “I know there are books but I don’t really know how to find them. Really the only thing I know how to do is go to Google and type in what I’m looking for.”
A first year math student offered an alternate explanation: “I’m lazy and I use the Internet.”

I don’t know where to begin my comment on this research study.
Less than 60 miles NW from Mineral, Va (where the earthquakes originated) is Virginia’s hotbed for hydraulic fracturing: a method of creating earthquakes to extract natural gas.
I’m sure that’s just a coincidence though…

Interesting observation. Thanks.
Does anyone actually use the cafe-style outdoor seating at a gas station?
Train crossing at sunset.
Just realized… it has been two weeks since I drank a cup of coffee. How have I survived?
Lovely evening for a walk through downtown #avl
Found in a kitchen frequented by our Daily Charts team. Those chaps really love their work.

It must have been the morning rain…

Confession
Confession: My social media habits have been somewhat existential these past few weeks. Not because of a sense of self-importance, but due in part to allocating time and resources to non-online activities. In other words, I post content, but infrequently return to see if someone has commented or ‘liked’ something I post. I know in the social media world this is considered ‘unsocial’ behavior. It is not my intent to be unfriendly. Sometimes I just need some space and time away from technological and social media to avoid overload.
Foggy start to a Friday morning.
This is as close as I’m going to get to attending tonight’s Neko Case show.
Another #avl mural. Remember what was there before the new mural?
Rainy morning on the streets of #AVL
A delicate thing of beauty.
