Musically Speaking

  • January 5th, 2005

I found this over at Keith‘s before the New Year, but I had to set it aside to complete over time.  I finally finished it and, as an added bonus, have included the songs for your enjoyment.  Essentially, it’s songs that remind of you the suggested time, place, person, etc.  If you’d like to download the songs, right-click and save to your computer.  Please do not stream. I will kick your ass. Twice.  If there’s no link available, I just can’t seem to find the mp3.  C’est la vie. The mp3s will only be available for a short time so get ‘em while the gettin’s good.

[The mp3s are no longer available. sorry!]

Next Stop: Oprah! Moxie Client on Dr. Phil!

We were super excited earlier this month when our client, Patricia of MotherinLawHell.com, told us that she was going to be on Dr. Phil’s show.  Woo!  That’s amazing to start.  But when we found out her website was going to be displayed on Dr. Phil’s “big screen” we were even more excited. National television? Syndicated even? Yes, please.

Last Friday the episode aired and I made sure to record it for posterity. Full disclosure: I don’t watch Dr. Phil often (ok, ever), but I was more than happy to watch it that day! And according to Patricia, the Dr. Phil staff “LOVE the design!” and think “it’s so FUN!”.  Yay! We’re thrilled to hear that since we pride ourselves on bold and happy designs. We do fun. Come and knock on our door, Dr. Phil’s staff. Anytime! smile

Yelp Goodness

Island Style Cafe (4/5) on Yelp

I had breakfast here with Lyn P., who recommended it and really, really enjoyed it. The place is really unassuming and since I rarely venture into Tierrasanta, I'd never have known it was there…
