stop what you're doing and go listen to johnny 99 right now. it's the best live version of one of my all-time favorite bruce songs. i mean this is right up there with "thunder road" and "growin' up." yes, the video is dated, what with his dorky bandanna and tight, tight jeans, but the intensity of his singing, the rawness, gets better over time. play it loud, and play it often, i tells ya.
i'm in a raw mood, which directly informed how i processed this. i've had an up and down day: i had a fantastic therapy session (of the eureka! kind), but then slipped on an icy stair and busted up my arm and ankle. i'm ok, just bruised and battered. then i came home and got an email: lucinda williams is playing at the paramount this spring! having recently become a member to get good david sedaris seats, i called and got two second-row center orchestra seats. so yay me. bruised and battered me.
gonna go take an epsom-salt bath now, with an advil-agua cocktail.
sigh.
oh, and anyone need a freelance web project manager, or a writer/editor/copyeditor/proofreader, or an environmental portrait photographer?
double sigh.

When I was a child living on a farm in Walton County between Atlanta and Athens, there were persimmon trees which had been planted by a previous owner. My sister and I were told, "If you eat a persimmon before it is ripe, it will turn your mouth inside out." The only way to fully understand what that means is to eat a green persimmon.
I am a spontaneous photographer, especially for my 365 Day series. I don't really plan ahead. I do notice when I see good light since photography is all about light. I've been noticing each morning (since I'm home for the summer) that there is very good light in my front yard. I snapped 12 images in 4 minutes. I looked at the images on my computer and decided that I wanted to use 2 of them. Experience reminds me that Photoshop Elements 2.0 will allow me to Create a Photo Merge. I complete the merge, upload to flickr, add the title (which had been rolling around in my brain), and add the description. After taking the images, I'm finished in 15 minutes. The whole project took about 45 minutes, and I had NO idea beforehand what my self-portrait would be for today. I enjoy the project, but it does NOT rule my life. It is a great enjoyment for me.
Oh yes, after it's all uploaded, I PROOFREAD it several times. Being an English teacher, I just cannot live with mistakes in my own work! :-)
The final part is adding my daily image to the group pool: 365 Days
The pain of dealing with a stranger's writing skills is actually an easy way to warm up to understanding this.

This is a sign that was just put up outside a new deli that will be opening this summer in Columbia Heights, DC. It's full of spelling errors - apparently, no one bothered to proofread before paying for it and hanging it up in public.
This was posted along the line to the Shrek show. Hey, proofreading is still important even for silly faux newspapers!!
The Yap sisters, retired Hakka ministers, have been working hard to proofread the Hakka Bible translation.
Four reasons to love this:
1) The fact the sign had a missing apostrophe in the first place
2) The fact that some wag decided to add an apostrophe
3) The fact that the apostrophe was added in the wrong place
4) Bearing in mind the above, the little orange sign is truly the icing on the pedant's cake

Spent an evening and a part of night at prebirthday party 🍰💃 with gals of my passed away granny (right: with ladies over 70 years old). Got a big suitcase of vintage yarn 😍. Had my routine walk home and 288 stairs. Now there is 1:30 a.m. and I have a text for proofreading and a site for auditing... and the office the morning after
Today in We're Here!, we're collecting words! And if we make the words about the Hereios, then bonus! And, well, these words are my actual name (Patty Smith). The awesome horror/sci-fi author
Wayne Simmons thanked me in the acknowledgements of two of his novels- Drop Dead Gorgeous (my favorite horror/sci-fi novel) and in FLU. (I helped out on proofreading, so I actually got to read the stories before ANYONE!! Well, except for Wayne, his lady Rebecca, his publisher, and editor- Ryan. But before anyone else!!).
"Since I saw that picture of you
Nothing matters - I just wanna love ya!!
We can make it, you and me
So come on baby, come on baby, oh yeah..."
-- Bryan Adams, Diana
So, it's not the original, it's the Lomo remake. There's lots good and lots bad and lots I'd like to see, so here's my first impression (before getting any film back).
The Good
-- The pinhole is a real pinhole, albeit very poorly constructed.
-- The apertures seem to be real, unlike most Holgas.
-- Removable lens barrel. This just screams 'mod' all over it.
-- Tripod attachment
-- The slider for the film window actually works without sticking, unlike the Holga
The Bad
-- The focussing ring is inside the lens barrel (it's the black plastic surrounding the actual lens), which means it's impossible to refocus if you place filters in front of the lens. At close focussing, it extends past the lens barrel, which makes threading the barrel for filters impossible.
-- Diana to stealth shooters: drop dead. The film advance knob is so loud, you can use it to send morse code to the next town.
-- They could have at least tried to make the viewfinder match the focal length of the lens.
-- The book that came with it? Badly written and riddled with typos and mistakes. We only want the cameras to make mistakes, Lomo...try hiring a proofreader.
Want List
-- Removable lens? You just know Lomo is gonna exploit this to the max...a fisheye, wide-angle, extreme close-up, etc.
-- Hotshoe...this would not have been a big deal.
-- Adding a thread to the focussing ring also would've been trivial.
-- A film rewind on the left would've allowed for the use of 35mm. Yes, I know, I'm blaspheming here. But I'm not really a zealot in that way. I like it all, and making this camera that much more versatile would not have put out Lomo that badly.

Grapes and Apple... at some point, I'm sure they must have had a rack or hanger but I've never seen them other than my set so I'm not sure if it would have been glass or wire. Cute anyhow~

Here's a good one I JUST caught... I only now noticed that the title in Florence's Big Book reads ANTHROMORPHIC... that word doesn't even come up in dictionary.com...
I've always heard anthroPOmorphic... which I still believe to be correct. Flo needs a better proofreader!!!

Alek Petuk. Office plankton.
.
Cy Twombly would have been greater artist,
if worked in any department
of a large multinational corporation,
and Van Gogh, too.
Every day in the office are made kilograms of art, a new contemporary art, imbued with a thin layer fat of clerk , in rare cases meat of clerk. You just have to break away from The Word and for a moment to open your eyes. In general, a person is very difficult to face the non-art in their lives.
Represented here today - just a small part of what was saved from office space in one and a half years. As you can see, the soul does not die before the end in folds nanoconcrete vaults.
What I propose today - it's fast food from painting. By all subcultures fast food (including metaphysical) - my works is pure semi-finished goods, the materials are all that may come to office space inside the pens, used alone and not once paper, scanner HP, text markers, markers, pencils , glue, proofreaders, colored stickers.
Hanging on the walls foamboards - at the junction of waste, theft, and painting - inspired by the smell of our post-industrial times. It should be noted with regret only one thing: it is hardly possible to plunge into the works until the end, because we have long been there.
All work from the series Office plankton is created in a 15-minute smoking breaks, which are accepted in the infinite spaces of modern post-industrial office corporations in the world where human personality has long been turned into a system, a small gear, which could easily be thrown out and replaced by a new one. Cri de coeur for the loss of particles of the divine personality, the transformation of the individual into a full-fledged man-caused machines - exactly what the audience sees in each of the works.
In view of certain socio cultural triggers, each of the works can not be set apart from the name or without name.

I don't have children, but if I did, I think I would want to send them to a daycare that could proofread the expensive signage they had painted to the back of their van. Not that knowing how to spell "years" (not YEARES) is an indication of caregiving prowess, but it does seem like it might be a bit of a canary in a coal mine.
MGM recently released the racing documentary 'Dust to Glory' on DVD... with a glaring grammatical error on the cover, as captured in this camera-phone snapshot.

Here is another shot of a mama Green Lynx Spider (Peucetia, Oxyopidae) guarding her egg sac in a flowering plant of native Bird's Beak (Cordylanthus rigidus, Orobanchaceae) - see this photo from a couple of days ago. In my comment to that photo, I explain why I believe this spider is Peucetia longipalpis rather than P. viridans. Sure, this is a "butt shot" that's perfect for the Beautiful Bug Butt Thursday (BBBT) group, but they have a limit of two photos per week, and I've already posted them - but HBBBT anyway!

evidently, the person British Airways hired to do its menus was not qualified... read carefully.... and read on if you need a hint.. but first a little blather so you don't get to the answer by mistake. I got this menu on some London-Paris flight long ago, before Flickr. Fortunately I saved it... And as I was cleaning out my apartment (finally!) this weekend, I found it. too good not to post! Okay, so now for the hint... look at the entrees on the right (French) side. Especially ironic since almost half of the *English* version is in French.
There are various tests which can be used for doing Dissertation Statistics. These tests, like T test, z test, chi square test, ANOVAs/ Manova, linear regression and correlation must be chosen and applied with caution. All these tests can be used differently and have varying results, depending upon the nature of research and the data collected.

^^ Title from "Not Your Concern" by the Hush Sound <3
Another "Momentum" picture! Yay! Um, this is kind of an overview of the main characters -although there is one I haven't created yet and therefore isn't here. And then I had these cool litlte definition brushes that kind of fit with the characters, which you'll understand as we get along with the story.
So there's Taylor, the not very popular bubbly girl who wants to befriend Amber. Amber, the famous Paris Hilton-esque socialite who is basically banished to nowhere, Colorado. The twins-Iris and Will- the mysterious, beautiful, powerful duo who Amber simply must get to know. If you saw this, then you know more about the most likely future sims 2 story, Momentum.
And here's a little preview for those of you who are interested.
______
“Amber, wait,” she blurted out in a rush, saying it before she could come to her senses and back out. Amber spun around, whipping her luscious black hair around in the process. She sneered as she saw who was speaking to her. She clutched the side of her stomach and tapped her foot impatiently, signaling Taylor to continue on before Amber died of boredom. “Sorry about that,” she apologized hastily, though she wasn’t sure why tripping was exactly her fault. Still, it felt like the right thing to say when you were kissing up to someone who was not only more beautiful, but wealthier, more popular, and way, way cooler than you were. “I just was in a hurry to find you. I’m supposed to show you around the school.”
The modelesque girl shook her head slowly and bit her lip in mock sympathy. “I’m sure I can find my way around this place,” she remarked cattily, scanning the dull brick building that lay ahead of her. Lifting her heel up in front of her, Amber took another step toward the pathetic excuse for a school, only to be stopped again by two hands in her face.
“Wait!” Taylor cried out, practically pushing Amber over as she blocked her from moving forward. Amber gave her a curious glare, a mildly amused smile curling the edges of her lips upward. Taylor brought her arms back to her sides and cleared her throat. “I’m afraid you have no choice,” she explained in a rather serious tone. Amber raised a questioning, perfectly shaped eyebrow. “The school handbook states that ‘any new student must be accompanied by an assigned student guide to show them throughout the school and to assure that the new student is safe and comfortable in their new learning environment. Failure to comply- by either the new student or the assigned guide- will result in consequences.’”
Amber gave Taylor a “you can’t be serious” look and rolled her eyes, letting out a long, exasperated sigh. She seemed reluctant at first, but nevertheless she shrugged, shaking her head like she was a big disgrace. “Let’s get this over with,” she grumbled, almost inaudible.
Taylor grinned. Perfect.

So that's a little preview of "Momentum." For those of you who are like "wait what about 'Viva la Vida!?'" don't worry, because I'm working on that as well. I'm waiting for my proofreaders to finish editing the first chapter and I have to take pictures of the last scene (which I can't do until the proofreaders are finished, because I'm a little iffy about it).
