Last year, two of my friends moved into a two-bedroom apartment in Foster City, California. At the housewarming, I discovered this awesome water view, and I had to take a panoramic photo of it.

Take the names of the American version of the seven colors of the rainbow, in the order that they’re often described. Rearrange the names of the colors into a particular order so that you can take one letter from each color/name to spell out “RAINBOW”. Then, using this new order, take one letter from each color-word to assemble two words that have relatively opposite meaning.
Hints
This isn’t really a hint, but it’s where I got the idea for this puzzle. It’s from the Sunday Puzzle on NPR with Will Shortz. See the “Next Week’s Challenge” on this page.



Last summer, my friends and I went to Napa (most of us for the first time) to go wine tasting. It was a nice experience, though our time was limited, considering our scheduling conflicts. We got to one of the wine tasting places, called V. Sattui, about an hour before closing, we tasted some wines, and we went to one of the nearby small towns to have dinner.

In the summer before I left Davis, I took the opportunity to walk around and take some photos in the Green Belt in North Davis. It was beautiful and quiet, although it was sort of creepy as I could’ve been mugged or could’ve been mistaken to be a mugger by people taking that nightly stroll.

No pretending at all that this is an original design. The original design read “John& Paul& Ringo& George” and was created by Experimental Jetset. Since then, there had been many imitations, with the names of members of different bands.
In any case, someone needs to make a shirt like this. A quick search online resulted in no such shirt, which was surprising, since the original was so beautifully simply designed and has appeared in the Helvetica documentary.
Here’s black on white:


Just playing with my name. Sort of copying the “I amsterdam” campaign, which I never really understood from a grammatical standpoint. At least with mine, you don’t encounter that problem at all; it’s just a name. Could be used as a cheesy self-branding piece.
Here’s an alternative, with lowercase. Slightly different feel.

Testing to see if I can have many levels of inter-list sorting with the jQuery UI. I can!



Part 3 of the day(s) of museums series in early July 2007. Outside of the Exploratorium at the Palace of Fine Arts in San Francisco. The angles are a bit warped from where I was shooting the photos, but it’s still nice.
