  • New digs and pie

    The Dining Room I went over to have some pie and alternately check out the new house my friends moved into recently. Floating planes and storage built into every room. Glorious open space. Quirky touches like the paneled wall with fluorescent lighting over a landscape print, framed by curtains. A shuffleboard in the basement. Tour…

  • The new stray

    Love for sale Actually, free love. Heather found another cat lingering outside the neighborhood bar and like a good samaritan, she made sure it was getting plenty of food. After a week and no one picking up the little fella, she brought him to her home. I don’t know how many strays she has taken…

  • Slither

    SNAKE! (runs in opposite direction) So I’m up north to check out a friend’s farmin progress. There’s a snake infested tree there. Big ones apparently. I was scared just holding the camera up to it. As if it might leap out the 8 feet between us and go straight for my jugular. Once, as a…

  • Mental note: Don’t sniff Comet cleanser

    Rainy Cincinnati So I found my office keys buried in my satchel and the studio remarkably shiny. Dave has new shoes and a pilot’s license. Heather was fit and blonder. I wasn’t terribly productive, but mapped out some stuff. Perhaps it was the mountain Dew and XL latte pre-noon that made it difficult to focus.…

  • How much meat can you handle

    The three bears Lunch was a “Gerber” at Ruma’s Deli – essentially a big open faced sub slathered in garlic butter and ham put through the oven to melt the Provel cheese (A St Louis original – a pasteurized process cheddar, swiss, and provolone cheese). Yum. Dinner was That’sa Nice’a Pizza and French Dip subs.…

  • This porridge is just right

    We dressed up the ashtray with playdoh and called her Lil’ Pea I left KC and it was blurry and too quick. The road to St Louis was congested. I got to the office of the 3 bears and we high-tailed it to free shirtless shots at the bar. We went off the suburbs and…

  • Hanging with Art

    Julie Moos Mrs. Rose and Mrs. Pleasant, 2001 C-print Collection Johnson County Community College I believe Mrs. Pleasant is pictured above in this photo of a photo. I met up with Art for lunch today and we toured the campus and looked at all the installations and whatnot. Organized by paper, sculpture and photography –…

  • Ameoba

    FunkyBear dips into the rock section Went to the Haight and avoided the Gap. Bought too many useless knick-knacks and t-shirts. Met up with Martin. Ate crepes and heard folks argue in French. Then, there was Amoeba. They actually didn’t have everything I was looking for, but they had a helluva lot I wasn’t. Art…

  • daVinci Days

    11th Annual Kinetic Sculpture Race Pancakes in the morning outside of the greenhouses surrounded by roses. Our timing couldn’t have been better. We headed into the nice college town of Corvallis for daVinci Days. We parked the car at a friend’s place and walked through the town. Their friend, “Half” as I think he goes…

  • Looks like I picked the wrong week to quit sniffing glue.

    Hum, splash, smack (mosquito), gurgle, gulp, ahhhh… Kung Fu Chaos whittled my nerves in the afternoon. Hot tub (with disco lights) eased the pain. Chilled and fruity Monterey white went down easy. Redmond sunset, ever changing and purdy. Chuckled with Airplane! The Movie before bed.
