New Year's Eve Day 2011

Enjoyed 36 baskets of frisbee or disc golf today! Weather was in the mid 40s, cloudy in the morning and lots of sun in the afternoon. Great day to be throwing discs!

Came across this well edited video of disc golf in Tulsa, OK.

Lots of fine syncing the music with disc shots!

May 2012 be best year for everyone yet!

Maria Popova and Brainpickings.oth

I was reading an interview in Mother Jones today with Maria Popova and her blog brainpickings.org which really intrigued me. It answered some questions I had about this whole blogging experience. Mainly what it answered was that whether or not I should blog about one topic or many. As I read the interview the thought came to mind that I shouldn't be so concerned about having a tight focus to my blog as life is too complex and too varied to tightly focus. Maria talks about curatorial journalism and, to put it into my terms, it's a form of journalism that journals interesting subjects, articles, etc., into one space. It seems to me to be a very individual and, perhaps, best approach towards this blog of mine as I find many different and diverse subjects and things interesting. One such subject is book art and a short PBS vid on book art, Off Book, was one of brainpickings.org's articles.

Today is the first time I ever heard of this.
Where was this video when I was in grade school struggling with math?

Hang it all!

Probably never get writing on this blog in every day like I'd like. Just got to be happy with what I can post and keep trying to get better.

A friend, Lisa Davis, shared her blog with me. Didn't know she tied flys! A great read!! http://strip-n-twitch.blogspot.com/

Been on to the Pogues lately.

There's not enough hours in a day or days in a life to do all one wants to do!
I shouldn't be bored, eh?
