I don't know that I have a particular favorite. Peter Max's work always fascinated me. (I still have a Peter Max marching band bed sheet that I can't seem to part with) I really dig the anthemic album covers from the 70s... Boston, Yes, Earth Wind & Fire, Journey... really cheesy and over the top but I would just study them so intensely as a kid.
I also dig David Stone Martin's work. It makes me want to wear a sharp suit and drink fancy pants drinks.

Do you ever really pay attention to birds?

The wonders of technology...your cell phone is probably programmed to spring forward when the US is supposed to spring forward, and not when they actually did.



Have you ever felt up against it?

Loads of yard work - weeding, seeding, scalping, aerating and I'm finally putting in a vegetable garden.

Sure. Especially on a day like today. It's our slow season at work and I'm supposed to be working on certifications. I'm delaying like crazy.

You putting anything off?

i've got a bunch of jobs i had planned for today but mix of day off apathy, late night at the joiners last night and a stack load of csi / time team / cold case on the pvr means that they'll have to wait for tomorrow :wink:

Yeah.

Did you know my Granspa marched with Cesar Chavez? He lost his job over it.

I don't think so. Hmm, that's kind of surprizing to me for some reason... But I think it's true.


Ever forwarded on an Email warning to family / friends, only to later find out it was a hoax?

Fortunately, no. My skepticism has served me well in that regard.

Pushed my button. . . and made me mad? That an evil coworker made a premature announcement on a conference call about my friend going part-time. Doesn't sound that bad, but it was 100% passive aggressive because there is no way this lady was genuinely happy that my friend is going part-time and she was trying to be dramatic, but at the same time, seem supportive for the first time ever. You had to be there, I guess.
