Laptop Sticker Cleanup

In Me Being Stupid on November 2, 2009 at 2:44 pm

Covering my laptop with geeky social media stickers created me with an evolving techno-mural in the past couple years. The machine was huge — barely fit into the x-ray security tubs at the airport — and provided plenty of landscape for be-stickering.

In case you’re wondering, I’ve only been in a couple client meetings when I wished I didn’t have a “The Internet: All the Piracy, None of the Scurvy” sticker on my presentation laptop.

But today was new laptop day, I spent about 10 minutes fingernail-picking stickers off the beast. And then 10 minutes with Goo Gone trying to get the Peter Shankman/HARO sticker off. That thing was sticky!

What did I do with the stickers? Oh, I made a collage for Doug Hamlin:

I’m now accepting sticker submissions for the new laptop. The snarkier the better.

The New York Times has a fascinating interactive graphic showing how thousands of Americans over age 15 spent their time in 2008.

Zooper is not a word, Como Zoo

Zooper Food is the Como Zoo‘s main concession area, and it offers hamburgers, fries, pizza, popcorn, ice cream and drinks. It’s run by Lancer Catering.

But they must not understand that “zooper” it not actually a word. I checked:

Better get that fixed, Como Zoo.
