Scarecrows!

Yesterday evening was a great time for Scarecrow in the Gardens and Fest-of-Ale at the Atlanta Botanical Gardens. Turn out was great–unfortunately, they ran out of beer early in the evening. But, I managed to shoot some interesting scarecrows.

Truffles wins “coveted spot” in AHS’ All Pets Allowed Calendar

Yes! Yes!

We received a letter today from the Atlanta Humane Society notifying us that Truffles has won “a coveted spot in the Atlanta Humane Society’s 2010 ‘All Pets Allowed’ Calendar!” We are so excited! There’s even a calendar premier party! This is just too awesome!

Royalties for ringtones?

ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers ) has been wanting to get some money from people using music for their cell phone ringtones–arguing that ringtones when played, were public performances and are thus subject to royalty payments. Ars Technica reports, thankfully, that a federal court judge has nixed that movement. Read their story here.

Taste of Atlanta

We went to Taste of Atlanta on Saturday. It was a great day, interrupted with only some minor rain drops. We had a blast!

We made it through all of the VIP wine tasting tables and ended up ordering a case of wine, too. Yes, we splurged on the VIP tickets, but I think it was worth it. We certainly didn’t get to sample all of the food there…that would have been too much.

At the VIP event, we also helped paint the Blue Moon billboard. Take a look at our artistic efforts!
