I wish I were in Berlin right now. Apart from the whole rubberdux wonderfulness, there seems to be this amazing reaction to Brack Obama's visit. People there are really excited to see him and are very pro-america. They really don't hate us, just George Bush, and they greet Obama with the same sense of hope and relief that a lot of his supporters here do ( Read more... )

I finally saw The Dark Knight last night and like everyone I'm impressed to hell with Heath Ledger, but I was also surprised by it.

Have to send off the Mudville grant tomorrow and I need to send some work samples on behalf of the collaborating artists, Chris, Aileen, and myself. We've lost a lot of archival stuff over the years but I uploaded a bunch of photos that might help to my photobucket account. Anybody want to offer their 2 cents, it would be much appreciated. I ( Read more... )

One of the things I like most about my job is that our office is on the ground floor in the heart of the Fairlie Poplar district downtown. The place has a great neighborhhod feel, all the business owners and residents know each other and the roads are narrow so there's not a lot of through traffic. Well on Friday's, they close Broad street off ( Read more... )

Just for the record...the women I know are the toughest, strongest, sweetest, coolest most amazing broads around. Thanks to all they Grandmamma, they mamma, they neighbor ladies, they parole officers and anyone else who had a hand in raising them right.
