Prodnography: Levenger Rope Case, Orange

I'm still a little surprised that the item that was supposed to ship 4/20/2006 arrived today on my doorstep.

Go, Levenger, Go.

So far I really like this case. I was really pushing the shirt-pocket briefcase quite a bit. I miss having the tuckable strips on the rope case but I'll see where I land in a week or so.

Why is it called a "rope case?"

And I do appreciate all the pics you put on flickr. It's really helpful.

a. Just guessing, but the usual dictionary defs may be applicable:

verb [ trans. ] catch, fasten, or secure with rope : the calves must be roped and led out of the stockade | the climbers were all roped together. ? ( rope someone in/into) persuade someone to take part in (an activity) : anyone who could play an instrument or sing in tune was roped in. ? ( rope something off) enclose or separate an area with a rope or tape : police roped off the area of the find.

So maybe because you use it to "rope in" a bunch of cards? I really have no idea!

b. You're welcome. In my opinion people need more "everyday use" "real time" "live" pictures of products. I rarely buy clothing online because quite honestly most people truly suck at presenting clothing on the web.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
