The sun’s out in Vancouver
I’ve probably listened to “Oh Yeah” by The Cliks five times in the last two days.
Got a couple of rolls of film developed from the Dominican Republic. Photos are slowly making their way up onto Flickr, as well as a few portraits I’ve taken lately.
Did you participate in Earth Hour? It was a symbolic gesture, but it shows some solidarity in the face of a problem we have only the smallest ability to solve. Remember, kids, turning off your lights when you leave the house will help save the planet! Apparently Vancouver’s consumption only fell 3.5%, but in Calgary energy consumption spiked up 7% during Earth Hour… thanks for your dedication, Alberta. (There was a hockey game on.)
If you haven’t heard yet, emo kids are being targeted in violent attacks in Mexico.
NYPD officers beat and arrested some non-violent Buddhist Free Tibet demonstrators in front of the UN.
Good nuclear power? Brian Gordon’s article means we should all go mine Thorium OMG.
Painted yesterday afternoon and like every time I take the time to get my art stuff out and actually start working, I realize how much I love it, how much I need to do it. I just wish I had the dedication the rest of the time, or maybe so much inspiration that I couldn’t do anything but work. I like to think that if I had a studio devoted to artwork, with all my stuff out and at the ready, I’d get more work done, but I don’t think that’s necessarily true. My laziness knows few bounds.
Go listen: If you ever have a chance to dance to Kasey Riot you will be more than pleased. But I recommend not listening to her mixes while at work, because they will make you wanna dance, which sucks when you are sitting in an office chair. It’s painful, really, how badly I want to “bust a groove”.
