Prodnography: 3x5 card Bleachers -- DIY

Levenger makes a wooden 3x5 bleacher setup. Its really big and honestly awfully expensive.

There is a guy in my office that knows his way around a saw, so he prototyped a set of bleachers for me. I love it.

It isn't super clean (lots of glue inside it and the edges aren't polished or anything) but it is certainly usable as you can see :-)

I am printing DIY Hipster PDA templates 2x2 (four to a page) and cutting them.

Projects are Yellow, Billable Work is Pink, General lists are White, etc :)

So did you get the templates from somewhere, or did you lay it out yourself?

(On a semi-related note, this morning I laid out and printed my Weekly Review checklist at 3 x 5 inches, impositioned 4-up on a sheet and trimmed them down. That way I can cross things out as I do them each week, without marking up my master checklist.)

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
