lazy.

that's why i have't been writing lately, laziness.

this seemed like something worth sharing, and as good a reason as i was gonna get to get a little less lazy.

happy birthday jackson pollock



i'm not sure i really got it until i saw his work in person. it's quite possible i don't really get it now, but i do enjoy it. there is a monumental quality to his work. viewing it, for me, is a near endless process of discovering little portions that seem just right. it's a bit like discovering an amazing tiny detail on flower you never looked at closely enough--that's on a scale so vastly different from the forest it lives in. an amazing tiny detail that makes you smile. he would have been 97.

DLR

i recently re-watched better off dead--one of my favorites, and an early john cusack classic. in watching it i was reminded of van halen, a band that, at the time, i think i was simply to young for--or at least too young to be a fanatic. i'm not to broken up about it though because, while it was a certain time and a certain place, it wasn't really great music.



DLRsteriods. do it.

sam

over dinner a conversation grew out of a simple "do you have monday off?" into a somewhat heated debate over civil religion, and especially the observance of patriotic memorials (martin luther king, jr. day in this case). being a week out from barack obama's inauguration makes this muppet show tidbit feel somehow more relevant. i'm cautiously hopeful about our soon-to-be president. i really hope he doesn't fuck it all up. he definitely has his work cut out for him.

making it fun.

when you make it fun, people stick around. when people stick around, you get through to them...whatever it is you have to say. or sell.
