At first I fell in love with the Bloom Device, a bubble blower that attaches to a bike. The bubbles are filled with seeds, turning you into a mechanized Johnny Appleseed. "Subversive and and inspirational"... maybe. My problem is that I found this link through Hugg, so I assume this is supposed to be environmentally minded. (If not, my objection is moot.) What happens if the people who own or care for the property you just planted don't appreciate your efforts? What if they use herbicide to kill off the seedlings/plants? Does this inadvertently contribute to environmental problems? I can't see the Bloom Device being more than a niche device, so either way, this won't ever be a huge deal, but still. The end.

Overheard at a table: "Did you know Grey's Anatomy was originally a book?"
There was a giant maguro, too, but the boss came out before I could take a picture.
Machka took me to Allerton for a picnic. There weren't too many other people out; we were essentially alone.
