Shouldn’t Volunteer Work Be Tax Deductible?
August 24 09
Why are donations tax deductible while volunteer work for non-profit organizations isn’t? Volunteer work is time, therefore money spent towards an organization.

You can only get deductions on costs that are related to the volunteer work, like [...]
Would I Design A Nipple Plate With Four Nipples?
July 25 09
Probably not. But this plate looks sexy, funny and weird. I like it. It was designed by Martin Zampach from Prague (Czech Republic). If 4 nipples are too much for you, you can go with the cute 3nipples plate. I also love his Tetris-like ice tray below, Iceblox. These are fresh gift ideas.

Tapes: Back In The Old Days…
August 18 06
[DRAFT-AS-I-HAVE-LIMITED-CONNECTION] I got home to see my larger family in France. I haven’t seen them since I left, 2 years and a half ago. First stop in Bordeaux where my parents are. Then La Palmyre, next to Royan, on the west coast of the Atlantic. I got to meet for the first time with some [...]
