celebrating summer in november

Summer's book is on Amazon! 

If you're working a day job and feel like your "real life" happens in the margins, Summer's book will give you the juice to turn that perspective on its ass. 

And yeah, I know I haven't actually read the book yet, but I've known the fabulous Summer Pierre since my early days playing around in blog-land, and I remember talking with her after the "media fast" that birthed the Artist in the Office 'zine, that in turn birthed the book of the same name. (and, oh yes, i've got my personally signed copy of said fabulous 'zine ...)

I also know that Summer's been LIVING this process for years producing art and writing and music and an artful life.  I can't frikkin WAIT to get my copy. 

It's not available until February, but you can pre-order it NOW (and for under 12 bucks).  (go get yours now!)

(way to go summer!)  :)

... and the human equilavent?

 
Brilliant. 

I can imagine SO many great variations on this theme for the human-types ...

i want one of these in my neighborhood

There's a little park not far from my home with a brook (and way too many ducks), tennis courts, baseball diamond and a kids playground; when I go walking, I often include a trip through the park, and usually wind up circling the playground a couple of times, hoping the little ones will get off the swings so I can have a go (and trying not look like some lurking perv who goes to kids playgrounds without a kid in the process).

Now wouldn't this be cool? ... a playground for adults! (and no, i'm not talking about a sex club ...)  But I'd want swings too.  (and no little kids allowed.)

yeah, right

To you crazy/loyal readers ... my apologies in advance that after my recent reboot, the post that follows is totally shallow. 

But if you've been reading my missives for a while, you know I don't suffer fools gladly, and somehow, I suffer Nicole Kidman and her "I've never had plastic surgery" claims even less.  Today I saw a recent photo of her in an online mention in USA Today and I couldn't resist.

Ladies and gentlemen, submitted for your perusal.
