This is where I collect things. Maybe you'd also be interested in reading a few things that I've written, or viewing some of my photos, or even some of my videos. If you're feeling especially voyeuristic, you might even want to look through my links, listening habits, and social connections.

Find more links at the main office.

Andy-in-a-can, via the other Andy:

Katie sends the above photo with this message:

Spotted today at Cumberland Brews, which is the owner of an impressive array of defunct brand beer cans…if the date on the can read “1979” rather than ‘78, I would’ve choked on my microbrew, bro…

It took a Kentuckian to remind me I’m glad to be back in Minnesota, where every can of beer is Andy’s beer. Psychically, I mean. 
Here’s what Rusy Cans Dot Com says about Andy’s Beer:

Andy’s Beer came out in several different designs and colors, none of which were particularly attractive, striking, or unique.

I beg to quibble. I think this can is extremely attractive, striking and unique, and I am — if you need reminded — a highly trained visual artist. It is unique and striking because it dares to say what all other beers only think: “I am Andy’s beer.” 
Also, in terms of attractiveness, I would like to point out that Andy’s Beer appears to come in many exciting pop-art shades of green, yellow, blue and orange. Q.E.D.

How To Be Happy In The Twin Cities →

Some helpful hints from Erica. Perhaps it would be more accurately titled “How To Be Happy In The Twin Cities When It’s %#@$#& Cold Outside And The Sun Goes Down At 4PM.” I’d say for the last two years the Art Shanty Projects accomplished most if not all of the things on her list for me.
