i assume everyone has had the pleasure of this forward at some point or another...

Cna yuo raed tihs? Olny 55 plepoe out of 100 can.

i cdnuolt blveiee taht I cluod aulaclty uesdnatnrd waht I was rdanieg. The phaonmneal pweor of the hmuan mnid, aoccdrnig to a rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy, it dseno't mtaetr in waht oerdr the ltteres in a wrod are, the olny iproamtnt tihng is taht the frsit and lsat ltteer be in the rghit pclae. The rset can be a taotl mses and you can sitll raed it whotuit a pboerlm. Tihs is bcuseae the huamn mnid deos not raed ervey lteter by istlef, but the wrod as a wlohe. Azanmig huh? yaeh and I awlyas tghuhot slpeling was ipmorantt! if you can raed tihs forwrad it.

...my theory is that everyone can. i mean, i've never meet anyone that couldn't. personally, i think it's just sent around to make people feel special... although i can't for the life of me figure out why 55% would make anyone feel special... after all, it's still over half of society. but maybe that fact says more about human nature than "study" does.

~FORMAL~

...i was tempted to use a pun ...but refrained. there are very few who can/should use them. kinda like guys having both ears pierced. either it works amazingly or looks amazingly ridiculous. there is no inbetween.

...but i digress...

i was at another wedding. big surprise, i know.

i now have two formals that i will never ever ever wear again.

(not that they weren't quite lovely choices by the two lovely brides.)

therefore, i have decided to send said formals to the dominican republic via bartlesville oklahoma.

yes, really.



if any of you know anyone who might have any leftover, ill-fitting, or otherwise personally useless formal dresses of any kind or color lying around.... send me a message and i'll see what i can do to get ahold of them. it's for a good cause. really.
see... in brief, it works like this. marriage is a big thing there. if you can't do it properly (dress, etc.) you just don't. instead you live together. thus a christian missions org has decided that it would be most ingenious to solve the problem by removing the complaint (lack of formals). so they take formals, bridesmaid dresses, etc. down to give away! great right!? yes it is! and you should get involved. :)

if i could be *anywhere*, august 29th...

...this would be the one place.




welcome to the Roundhouse... a former piano factory in Camden Town that got turned into a rock venue before the Stones because, after all, how many grand pianoes could any single country purchase?

but the reason i would rather be there specifically on the 29th... is the illustrious Duke Special is performing ...with a complete orchestra backing them. so genius!

...i think it's the eccentricity, i really do. how can you not love this?

possibly my favorite photo series so far

this is the picture that started it all




...aaaand then....





















...i only missed the maid of honor and me ...i'm still disappointed about that. ;) oh yeah, this is fritz and hazel's wedding, by the way. so much fun! ...and no, i in no way encouraged ANY of this behavior.
honestly... the very idea. ::pff::

ennui

two weeks ago, i was bored... so i sharpied a half sun on the toe of one white chuck and a quarter moon on the toe of my other white chuck. yesterday... i was bored ...again. so i sharpied bridge silhouettes on the inside wall of each of my chucks. ...i'm not bored now ...but the outside wall is, at this moment, aesthetically unacceptably blank... any suggestions?

certainty, hesitation, passion, and suspense

"You think you understand them, but your understanding of them is only your being used to them, and therefore not surprised at them."

"The part of philanthropist is indeed a dangerous one; and the man who would do his neighbour good must first study how not to do him evil, and must begin by pulling the beam out of his own eye."
(George MacDonald, Lilith)

sometimes
i wonder
what, do we really *know*...anything at all?



...but still, i do enjoy the search... :)
