Just had my first dragon beard candy experience thanks to my super designer coworker who is chinese.

passing on

Two beautiful men, both of incredible spirit. Roberto a dear and close friend who lived large in our lives with his acute perception and philosophical dedication to humanity and vivre une bonne vie. His council will forever be unfolding as the years go by. Niles, an acquaintance for years, radiant and talented will be dearly missed by all who new him. To both, passing this week, I hold you dearly in my thoughts with gratitude.

I will never tire of Josh Sturges images.
