I enjoy design, photography, shopping and writing. I consider myself a very frustrated and uneducated graphic designer. I take pleasure in putting funny hats from Target on my cat, new gadgets, cold sheets and prosecco. I keep track of images, words, and much more on this website.</description><title>COOL BY ASSOCIATION</title><generator>Tumblr (3.0; @coolbyassociation)</generator><link>http://coolbyassociation.org/</link><item><title>via onemoretimewithfeeling</title><description>&lt;img src="http://media.tumblr.com/yYVS2ZIYLeq2s2edXwP3rAMoo1_500.jpg"/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;&lt;a href="http://onemoretimewithfeeling.tumblr.com/post/53237756/i-wish-this-could-happen-i-have-already-won" target="_blank"&gt;via onemoretimewithfeeling&lt;/a&gt;</description><link>http://coolbyassociation.org/post/53241401</link><guid>http://coolbyassociation.org/post/53241401</guid><pubDate>Sun, 05 Oct 2008 23:51:49 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>Hockey Mom on Thin Ice</title><description>&lt;a href="http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/story/2008/10/03/ST2008100300200.html"&gt;Hockey Mom on Thin Ice&lt;/a&gt;: Excellent Washington Post op-ed.</description><link>http://coolbyassociation.org/post/52910720</link><guid>http://coolbyassociation.org/post/52910720</guid><pubDate>Fri, 03 Oct 2008 10:20:23 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>What's Your Tumblr Number?</title><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://ecar.tumblr.com/post/52819162/whats-your-tumblr-number" target="_blank"&gt;ecar&lt;/a&gt;:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tumblr assigns a sequential number to each site on their service.  The lower the number, the older the site.  To find your number, login to Tumblr, go to the &lt;a href="http://www.tumblr.com/following" target="_blank"&gt;Following Page&lt;/a&gt;, then click on the name of your site in the top right corner of the screen just below the “log out” link.  Now, look at the URL in your browser address bar and note the number at the end of the URL.  Mine looks like this:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.tumblr.com/tumblelog/" target="_blank"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.tumblr.com/tumblelog/" target="_blank"&gt;http://www.tumblr.com/tumblelog/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;b&gt;18189&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;That means &lt;a href="http://joelaz.com" target="_blank"&gt;JoeLaz.com&lt;/a&gt; was the 18,189th site created on Tumblr.  A total of 442,648 sites have been created to date.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So, what’s your Tumblr number?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I’m number 10,267.  I’ve been around for a while.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;i&gt;This author is 1544.  We now return you to your regularly scheduled program already in progress.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;/blockquote&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am 6,094.&lt;/p&gt;</description><link>http://coolbyassociation.org/post/52827224</link><guid>http://coolbyassociation.org/post/52827224</guid><pubDate>Thu, 02 Oct 2008 20:38:34 -0400</pubDate></item><item><title>chickens for obama.
