Chess Pieces

 These random chess pieces are located at Market Street Station in Denver, CO.

You can sit down at either one and play a game of chess. 

Mega Buttons

I know I got you those giant smarties one year!  These may be next in your stocking!  :-)

String of Lights

I saw these one year on someone's front lawn and totally thought of you!  

Come to the Dark Side

I love this!  I seriously thought about getting it!  It's a Darth Vader digital alarm clock!

Ginorous Checkers

Remember playing checkers with Mengistu?  

Damn he was so good and he ALWAYS beat our asses.  

This set is found at the Denver Public Library in the kid's section.  

Come pull up a seat and let's play!

Not Your Mother's Dust Pan and Broom

So this installation is 35 feet and stands right outside of the Denver Art Museum.   When I first saw this, I immediately thought of you.  Come visit me and we'll go visit and take some pictures in front of it!

Giant Yarn Ball

This installation is at a store called Fancy Tiger, which is sewing/yarn/craft store for hipsters.

It's a pretty cool shop!

Killer Cupcakes

Since I forgot to post on the 21 and 22, you get two extra posts today.

Next time we get together, we should make these just for shits and giggles.

Ginormous Gumball Machine

This puppy is priced at the sweet price of $2,495.00 and hold 23,000 gumballs. 

If you charged $0.25 per gumball and sold 10,000 gumballs, the machine pays for itself.

Old School Disk Table

This brings you back, eh?  I don't think they even make them anymore.

Reminds me when you became a computer science major!  What would your life look like now, if you had chosen to continue to go down that path?

Other Uses for Paper Clips

These giant paper clips are actually bike racks.

"WASHINGTON, D.C., (July  23, 2010) – As part of its ongoing beautification program to bring public art and install more bike racks in the city, the Golden Triangle Business Improvement District (BID) unveiled a new artistic bike rack at the corner of 21st  and L streets NW.

Named “Clip Art,” the new bike rack features three colorful structures formed in the shape of nine oversized paper clips, which can hold six locked bikes."

Hot Cup of Joe

I think the proportions of this photo look off, especially the hands with the body.  The body looks like it could be that of a kid's, but then the hands are so big, it rules that theory out.  So we'll have to settle for an awkwardly shaped man.

Architect's Lamp

I know I already sent you a picture text of this, but I absolutely love this lamp!

Living Large with Nintendo

<Cue Mario Nintendo Music>

Man, I wish I had one of these.  Wouldn't it be so fun to play old school Nintendo with this bad boy?
