Many don’t know how much I like playing poker– I have a dream of being incredibly skilled and taking everyones money at the table, but don’t ever seem to get enough time to practice. Maybe someday, but for now I’ll just dream. Felted is a new t-shirt company aimed at those of us who appreciate a few games of texas hold-em and want to show it. Their slogan is great, it’s ‘When you’re down to the felt we’ve got your back.’ Other than their classic logo t-shirt, my other favorite is the Chip Twirl, check them out.

I recently did an interview with Doug Brown from the Denver Post– he turned out to be a really great guy and we spent some time together talking about everything I was up to. He wrote a nice little feature about me in today’s Post on the cover of the Lifestyle section. The feature does a pretty nice job talking about the bigger picture of what I’m up to with Spear Consulting and a peak at how JoshSpear.com works. Thanks for the opportunity Doug!

The Danish Design Centre recently held a competition called Element 2005 based on a very simple question: Is it possible to create a new home furnishing element in only eight days? They invited seven of Denmark’s youngest and most promising designers– with a maximum of five years experience and all under the age of 35. The results, an enthusiastic ‘YES!’, are on display at the Danish Design Centre in Copenhagen through the 30th of December. The results I’ve seen online are really gorgeous.
