About me

Hi, I'm Chris. This is my tumblog, which is just a way to say blog and Tumblr at the same time. What's a Tumblog? Ask the internet. What it really means is a page where I'll dump stuff I do, read and see that I find interesting enough to share with you via this here page.

I'm not liking the templates that Tumblr provides, so I'm messing with the design and changing the appearance of this page often. So come back and things may look different.

What I like: green living, old photographs, politics, the internet, futurism, books, journalism, college football, college basketball, traveling, marketing, concert videos, concerts too, philosophy, arts and crafts, camping, DIY culture, bikes, history and those things that we find online and are just too wonderful to define.
