This is simply genius!

Wat?

These are so awesome!

Check out the rest of New Zealand illustrator and designer Toby Morris's daily drawings on his life in Amsterdam. I really dig his man on the street perspective of everyday life in one of the world's most amazing cities.

He does these when he's not designing gig posters, eating cheese and drinking beer in sunny Amsterdam.


Good stuff, rock on Toby and thanks for making me laugh!

Wow, I just might have to move Vegas closer to the top of my list of places to visit before I die.

I've never been, nor have I ever had any real desire to visit Las Vegas. But I must admit that Frankie's Tiki Room looks and sounds like a pretty cool place. Really digging the mug selection!


It's funny. Whenever I hear anyone talk about their wildly decadent trip to Las Vegas (having been lucky enough to visit Monoco, Atlantic City and the capital of Holland a good half a dozen times), I'm always reminded of this bumper sticker I spotted on a POS AMC Pacer up in Austin a few years back which read: AMSTERDAM. Vegas Is For Pussies. Enough said.

Check it out: Frankie's Tiki Room.

Big Gracias to NotCot.

Vegas Is For Wussies

Cool stuff from agency KesselsKramer, Amsterdam for the Hans Brinker Budget Hotel.

I vaguely remember staying at the Hans Brinker Hotel back in 1997 on a trip with my art school bud Mike Mackenzie. My brother Terry was living in Holland at the time and we were having trouble getting in touch with him after arriving via the train from Paris. We got in late, it was raining and we just wanted a safe clean place to crash until we found a nicer place the next day and hooked up with my brother.

The funniest part of the trip was standing in the freezing November downpour talking into a speaker at the gates of the American Embassy looking for info on my brother, stationed at Soesterberg Air Base, which was in the process of closing at the time... Amatures!

You really can't get more Dutch than Hans Brinker!

That's Right,
