nothing like detroit’s eastern market on a 95 degree summer saturday.

this quicktime of tom cruise and oprah is so funny. its amazing that its all real footage.

what ever happened to the tom cruise we all loved? the one who didn’t talk or marry girls half his age in public, but just smiled….

been thinking about eating healthier lately. funny that i ran into this on blogdex. what a great way to tell a story. or maybe i’m just a star wars geek.

president bush hosted a cinco de mayo celebration at the white house rose garden. below is a quote from his speech to the audience:

“My only problem this year is I scheduled the dinner on cuatro de mayo,” Bush said. “Next year I’m going to have to work on my math.”

he IS kidding, right!?

worked on the kitchen all week-end. its almost there.

in a period of two weeks, my friends, dave, luciana and i all resigned from the ad agency we were working at. we had a little party and hit the karaoke bar to celebrate our new found freedom. james made us a little invite. and of course, luciana took some great pictures.

so i woke up last week and noticed that underneath the tree in my front yard, was a small, plastic bull (or cow, i can’t figure out which). i figured that some neighborhood kid either left him there by accident and forgot OR someone is trying to tell me something in the oddest way. thoughts?

the lesson learned i learned this week: never do a special order through home depot. chances are, you can get the same thing in-stock. also, it usually comes later than anticipated with no communication to the customer – unless of course you call them and track down some guy named antoine.

hurry, hurry, step right up and win a trip to heaven. yep, right here in dearborn, mi.!

this link i found to sifry’s alerts has a great post on weblogs and also several links to other posts from oct. 04 offering parts of his presentation at the state of the blogosphere web 2.0 conference.

i continue to find it fascinating to see something new grow and become affected by everything from research and observation to laws and rules to advertising etc. etc.
