Was in tech for 15 years, I was feeling burned out and started a beverage company out of my kitchen. It really took off and now its my full time gig. I have a small staff and work 3-4 days a week. Work-life balance is way better, however I'm missing the challenges and smart individuals that come with working on tech products.


Could you tell me a bit more about your beverage company?


I think very few people realize Shepard Fairey ripped off Carpenter’s “They Live” movie.


And that "They Live" was heavily influenced by the work of Barbara Kruger.


Oh wow. I had never seen her work, but a quick Google Images search totally confirms that.


yeah, she doesn't get talked about enough for how much she has influenced pop culture


Edward Abbey's Desert Solitaire - captures the beauty and importance of our natural world. Reminds us we can live simply and the idiocracy of trashing our own planet. (often compared Thoreau's Walden - also a must read)


We will look into it, thanks!
