Spent a couple of lovely days in slower lower Delaware recently, visiting wit the fam, tormenting their canines, plundering the prime outlets (tax-free Sony factory store? Hells yeah), dominating some skeeball, winning a little whack-a-mole and generally enjoying a leisurely hammock-filled visit.
One highlight was a delicious and fun dinner with some dear family friends. They’re awesome people and I love their house – they’ve got a great eye and everything’s just thoughtfully set up and very lovely and beautiful, and well-humored. They come by these traits honestly – Don and Arlene are founding members of Friday – an architecture firm in Philadelphia.
As it happens, they are also total freakin’ geniuses.
They recently subscribed to a satellite TV service. They didn’t like the look of the dish, sitting as it does right in front of their tidy and gracefully casual house. The solution? Take a can of paint, some artistic instincts and a good sense of humor and just make the damnable thing blend.

Nice residential camouflage job. I’ve heard of this satellite service. Ninja-vision. Their installers show up around 3 AM and install the dish without anybody knowing. The only problem is that if you’re more than 30 days late in your payments, they storm your house and cart you off to a forbidding fortress off the coast of Honshu until you fork over a late fee. They’re a wholly-owned subsidiary of Halliburton.
Do they have to repaint it in the winter?
