Reminded me of Nebraska wild flowers that we used to pick in the hills next to old car parts and groundhog holes. There were those pods too, whose black seeds when stacked would make interesting necklaces for the aunts, alma, some uncles too. 

If my life flashes before my eyes from my point of view, and I don’t get to see myself, I’m going to die angry.

Perhaps this is why Madame Bovary looks at herself in a mirror at the very end. A hot debate topic in my lit class. lol

On Saturday, February 19th, the House of Representatives voted 235-189 to pass a continuing resolution that eliminates funding for public broadcasting. I put together this handy chart on why PBS is worth saving. Find out how you can fight back at 170 Million Americans.

FULL DISCLOSURE: I am Creative Director for PBS KIDS but a life-long supporter/watcher of PBS ;

As much as we try not to be like our Mothers, I grew up watching PBS and seeing my Mom donate to PBS and now I do the same thing.
The quality of the programming on PBS is superior and beyond the scope of what the rest of American Television offers. No one craps out quality like PBS. You can quote me on that crap thing.
Sign me up for pledge week. I’ll go on TV and drive the money out of alllllll the sons o’ guns.

I read that the vast majority of the donations to our American PBS station were from Canadians.
So remember:
For every 1 US dollar in federal funding, PBS gets 6 dollars from Canadians!!

I had seen Shirin Neshat on Charlie Rose a long while ago and they showed a clip of this video. This was back way before youtube.

Thanks to Michelle for the Heads Up!

make love not porn

She was great. Buy her book from amazon. It’s <3 bucks. Amazon didn’t originally plug her book with the rest of the TED books because they thought it wasn’t as revalent. pfft!
