The Adventures of Accordion Guy in the 21st Century

Rob didn’t like the last photo of him I posted,
so let’s try this again. Here’s one I took last week; not only does he
not have a spaced-out expression, he’s looking pretty macho with a big
power drill as he constructs his Murphy bed:

If he looked any tougher, he’d be jumping out of the screen, drilling a hole in your head and feeding on the goo!

Here’s a photo The Redhead has never seen: it shows the longest I’ve ever had my hair (and the last time it was red.
This photo is from February 2002 and the guy to the left is Rob
Strickler, the newest member of our house.

I like to refer to hairstyles like this as the “I Want to Hump Duran Duran” look.

Continuing the loft photos from the previous post, here are two shots of the loft in which Cory Doctorow lived, taken in May 2000 in celebration of our landing the first round of venture capitalist funding for OpenCola.

This loft is at the bottom of Fraser Street, a stone’s throw away from
Tucows. It’s split-level, with the upper floor being an open platform.

This first photo shows two OpenCola founders making an annoucement from
the stairs. Grad Conn is seated at the top of stairs; as an homage to
computer programmers everywhere, he is wearing socks and sandals.
That’s Cory standing with one of the gift lunchboxes to be given to
investors. The investors are watching from below; this would probably
be the last time they looked up at us.

The area to the left below the pennants is Cory’s tiki bar. Behind Grad, you can see the bedroom area.

Here’s a closer shot. Yes, that’s a “Tigger” costume hanging on the
clothes rack. That’s the kind of thing you shoudl expect in the home of
a Disneyland-obsessed guy like Cory. Note the cool bric-a-brac mounted
on just about every wal surface.
