Crazy Doll eyes in Siepc
I saw this wonderful doll sitting on a bed of a village house. It's a recreation of a town long ago.

Art Access: RC GALLERY
I already did on the St. Helens hike. It was horrible weather, freezing rain, and a whiteout. This young blonde Anna Kournikova type came sprinting up the rocks past us. All she had on was hot shorts and a tight white T-shirt. It was pouring rain so it was like a wet t-shirt contest. We all just kind of stopped and stared. It was something else, man.

art thief
The gallery was broken into last night. It doesn't look like anything
was taken - because nobody understands our art.
Altho, all of Aaron's pieces in the backspace are not there. I don't
know if they have been taken down or stolen.
This all reminds me of the time I had a show at WSU while in school.
Before the show was over I sneaked into the gallery with my brother
(we
had to scale a wall and dress in black while drinking beers) and
stole
all my art back. I thought it would get great attention. But nobody
noticed, but I didn't really complain.
I'm a dumb-ass.
I normally would just write this in the book - but, I figure its
kinda
"special". Maybe we can spread the word..."Do you hear
Gallery 114 was
broken into last night!"
"Holy fucking shit!"
"That's right, Holy fucking shit"
All the mailboxes were broken into as well. I talked to Tom Walsh
(our
building manager?) and he said that there is a "rash" of
check thieves
blanketing the city. Apparently they steal checks and use the
electronic check numbers to buy stuff on ebay or other internet
related
money laundering endeavors.
The door will be fixed today.
So, I do believe Paul was sitting yesterday. Paul doesn't have a
computer or email so I will call him to see if he left any checks in
the out going gallery 114 mailbox. Highly unlikely.
Its pretty cool - I can pick up a wireless internet signal on my
laptop
down here in the gallery basement. I think its coming from Starbucks.
Actually, I figured out a way to "tap" into Starbuck's
corporate
network and "steal" a internet signal for us.
Just one more thing that the Odanrot selflessly and tirelessly
contributes to the community of 114.
In return for my efforts I DEMAND someone bring my a rum and tonic.
with a lime.
maybe you should bring 13 of them.
and a plan ticket to mexico.
peace,
rot

Raymond Carver
Aren't those two stories great? Another of my favorites of his is "Fever." It really reminded me of my breakup with my ex-girlfriend, the character of the wife in the story made me think of Emily. It was cathartic for me to read it.
I will loan you my anthology of his next time I see you. I love his characters and what he writes about, plus his style is so cool. He comes from the Hemingway school of writing: Never use three words when one will do. That's why I love Hemingway and Carver, and hate Woolf and Proust.
I tried to do a search on the net for the performance but didn't find much info. It will have been on for quite a while so we should be able to get in. Hopefully it will not be sold out. Maybe we can meet at the theater at about 6:45 and just take our chances. That is what Carver would do, he wouldn't try any of this fandango.com BS. Of course, he'd also show up drunk....
Anyway let me know if that sounds like a plan.

It was a mind-blowing epic, a literary tour de force! I especially love the part where Carver dressed up as Trojan man and fought Achilles and his gay lover. And I thought he was just a short story writer!
...ha ha, yeah I still think we lived the perfect Raymond Carver story there. I mean, it had it all: dingy downtown Portland theater, turned away at the door, wandering off down the streets after the two lesbians, standing in line listening to the homeless people play the blues, culminating in a dimly lit movie, lots of strangers, and cheap pizza and beer. He would have been proud.

Now and Zen show review
They thought the show now and Zen was really elegant!! I was very happy!!
Lots of bigwig local business people stop by...the musician was nice...we chatted about the Japanese flute and he plays guitar. The flute is made from bamboo stalk at the root edge...he play music to the art pieces. Inside of the flute is painted with red lacquer. Some one had to apply the red lacquer paint with a special tool. He was teaching English in Japan. One of his Japanese students gave it to him as a present from his grand father. It’s impressive instrument. His nails are long for picking the guitar.

parlor guitars
I'm getting a guitar from eBay
it's an old Arian parlor guitar from the early 1900s for $155. I missed out on a Harmony guitar for $12 with a missing tuning peg. Also there's a 30 old vintage guild for under $100. Oh my...the guy at guitar center said someone bought an old base guitar at goodwill for $100 it turn out to be a $3,000. guitar!!

Owners Opinion: Panasonic DMC-FZ10: nippa: Digital Photography Review
Owners Opinion: Panasonic DMC-FZ10: nippa: Digital Photography Review
After a lot of research I decided to order the fz10 from Ritz on eBay. It's being delivered in a few days. I almost got the LC5. I am waiting for the LC1 to come down in price. My Hasselblad just arrive today. Suddenly I began to take more pictures now...even with a film camera. I have a Contax G1 and Nikon F4. I've been reading this site a lot lately and it has influenced my choice of digital camera. I've seen some very beautiful picture from the photographer Barta on www.usefilm.com He uses LC5 and the pictures are beautiful even though it's very small. The sky and blue hues are lovely. I've also read the www.washingtonpost.com article by Van Riper. He likes the Fz1 better then the fz10 because of the Imagine stabilizer. I would only get the fz1 if it was upgrade to and fz2. But the Clerk at Kitz camera said that firmware upgrades voids the manufacture's warrantees. I almost order fz2 over seas but didn't. The clerk really emphasized that fz1 can't be print to an 8x10. So there you have it...that's how I end up with the fz10. I was testing it out at the Kitz store and took two pictures of a girl that I wanted so bad to keep these pictures. I wanted to steal the 16 SD card. The next day I came back and the picture was deleted.

iPoding | What's that in your pocket?
iPoding | What's that in your pocket?: "I have been looking for ipod mini for two or three months...none of the electronic stores around here has it in stock...so i decided to ask the clerk at Circut City just for kicks. She told me Meier & Frank has it. So Quickly i drove there.
Joy There it was three of them!! blue blue silver.
i snatched the blue and spent sunday with it.
yesterday, may 17, 2004 Monday...the iPod mini belt clip came off of my pants because i was squatting...ouch...the bottom of the metal shell is nicked a little bit...poor pod...i stroke it and it's okay now.
I clip it on my back now when i squat over the floor doing various art projects such as stretching canvas."
