I like you
Wanna know how I feel about you? Look here.
Toy store
I have a hankering to spend some money at the Trainer's Warehouse.
I mean, who couldn't use:
A whiteboard on a stick
Real gameshow buzzers
A Cat-a-pult game
A set of boom wackers
Man, I could have some fun with some of that stuff :o)

Laugh of the day
Far be it from me to serve as a tool of some multinational corporations viral marketing campaign, but this little movie is extremely funny, and VERY well executed.
Tornado holiday
I had the thought the other day, that somebody ought to organize holiday trips, where you get to see tornadoes up close. Well, according to the NY Times, that's been going on for a while now.

Happy songs
I got an email from Mike Wagner, who wrote:
Have you ever heard James Taylor sing "Secret O' Life"? I think it is a good
"happiness" song. Perhaps there is an entire category of "happiness songs"
we could gather, or likely someone already has. Simon and Garfunkel's
"Feelin' Groovy" might fit too.
I immediately … Continue Reading ››

Hugging NY
There's a kinda funny kinda sad story on NY Times about one Jayson Littman.
He is a financial analyst who happens to think that New Yorkers could use a hug. So it was, a month ago, that Mr. Littman began distributing hugs - free - from 1 to 4 p.m. on Sundays in … Continue Reading ››

Serious and silly
I found this wonderful little tale on Bernie DeKoven's excellent website, Deep fun.
I asked the Oaqui if they/he/she could entertain me with a profound-seeming, instructive-like story.
"TWO PLAYERS," the Oaqui eventually responded, almost without hesitation.
"There are two players in the heart: Serious and Silly," the Oaqui began in a tone … Continue Reading ››

Quote
When my daughter was about seven years old, she asked me one day what I did at work. I told her I worked at the college - that my job was to teach people how to draw. She stared back at me, increduolous, and said, "You mean they forget?" - Howard Ikemoto, quoted in Art And … Continue Reading ››
