Found this very cool site Design Glut while spending some time on Think Splendid. And surfed my way through to find Pomp and Clout and their very cool “Video Flyers.” I love this idea! What do you think?
I was always such a big fan of The Talking Heads. One day a number of years ago during my waitressing career David Byrne came into the restaurant to order take out! I didn’t recognize him at first – his hair was white. I couldn’t believe it. Not that the white hair didn’t look good on him. It did. But it couldn’t have been that many years that passed since. Or was it? Maybe he colored it white so not to be recognized.
This was one performance he did in NYC last year that I missed. But luckily I found a video of it today.
I often create photo & video montages for rehearsal dinners, anniversaries etc. The best part of these jobs is getting a peek into people’s lives.
I found this video on-line today. It’s amazing. But wait – just before I was about to post this – I saw that there was some controversy regarding who the credit for the idea should go to. And the credit should go to Taijin Takeuchi who created a stop motion video called A Wolf Loves a Pork. That video follows The Pen story video.
Imagine meeting someone in person after 6 years of chatting on-line. Wouldn’t that be intimidating? Without a doubt the most stressful part of on-line dating is meeting someone for the first time. What if they look drastically different from their picture? How will you not show your disappointment? What do you say if they ask you do they look like their picture – which they do. It’s all so scary and so exciting at the same time.
It’s so inspiring to me the many ways to meet someone. In the “old days” when I was dating, the choices were very limited. Parties, bars, friends, bookstores maybe… work – sometimes. But for someone like me who didn’t put out that “come hither” vibe it was difficult. You’d think it would be easy in New York to meet someone special, but it’s not or wasn’t for me. At some point, it must have been after a very dry period, I got the chops to sign up for an online service. It opened up a whole world to me. I couldn’t believe how many people were doing the same thing! I know there’s lots of pros and cons and not everyone has good luck. I did. I’ve been with my boyfriend for 7 1/2 years.
Amber and Mark are another example of never knowing who you might meet out there.
Hi. Sorry I was MIA – love to tell you why but it’s top secret. Well not really. I actually had to lay myself off. Ok – I’ll stop. Here is the conclusion of Freddie’s proposal.
