Check out this terrific blog about Design.
decor8, damn its good.

Music Is Bulletproof, and what it means to be a man.

A little over a year ago, some friends and i were working on a group art project every monday night at the argonaut on h ne.

Our waiter and cook, a guy that always came out and talked to us and encouraged us in our project was Quile Morales.

One night after work, as he was walking his girlfriend home, Quike was attacked and shot in the face. Its a miracle that he lived.

Quike recovered amazingly fast. His rebound and determination is inspiring.
HERE
is an interview with Quike.
