My new t-shirt?


So I entered this as a t-shirt design in a contest at Threadless. Think positive thoughts, and if I win, BUY ONE!

Ignorance and Arrogance

Ignorance and arrogance both claim to own the truth.

But each of them sees with only one eye.

Even a peacock sees better, and his eyes are an illusion.

Truth shows her face at the instant the single eye blinks.

The led horse winds toward home, helping quietly to bear your burden.

The driven horse flees blindly from danger, leaving you to labor on

alone,

with the weight of your anger.

Ignorance puts fences between men,

but arrogance makes men defend them.

In this way wars and loneliness are made.

Weeds grow thickly before a gate that is never opened,

and wisdom and humility are lost.

Berkeley Wildlife



So I finally got to go see the Berkeley Tire Elephant today. It's at the corner of Cedar & Scenic. So cool! The creator's name is Roxanne Urry. I think it was done around 2005. Check it out...

More distortion


I just read a book about Chagall. I think it warped my brain.

They said it couldn't be done...



The handy-man of my building said I'd never get the stove clean. But he was wrong. I can't decide if he told me that to goad me into trying or because he really believed it. In any case, that stove is CLEAN!

Ok, new place...



We've moved upstairs to a smaller apartment in the building. I don't want to be the manager anymore. It's making me crazy(er). So, a couple of snaps from the new place - day two.
