Yeah, but I bet some of the people who will "Like" what he said know what Laura means.

FYI - I am sad to say Chicago got no Supernatural or Nikita last night. I didn't check but I'm guessing some ball-using sport was the reason.

Presidents and their mothers.

msbelle, I wish I could come over and help you organize the stash.

It would be fun and I'd hope it would inspire me to do the same.

Ha, I saw that Laura. And honestly that should be a deal killer for some of the stated priorities of his supporters.

It may be that record numbers of people won't be able to bring themselves to vote for either candidate. A battle between who can bring out the loyalists. I had a stern talk with the 2 first time voters in my household. Florida swings!

Market, plants bought there. Pedicured, shoveling yoghurt and strawberries into me and then the yard work must commence! Figure out what to plant where, scissors my grass. I'd hoped to clean up the street, but there's a bigass truck in front....

I need to do some weeding today too.

OMG, I just bought everything at the party store. (Not the liquor store, people from other places! The paper plates and stuff store.) I am increasingly concerned about how I am going to get all of this stuff to the actual party.

Sensational Japanese Contemporary Art

These are amazing.

Today we are going to look at some cutting-edge contemporary art coming out of Japan, covering some popular culture, futurism- and steampunk-influenced Japanese artists largely unknown in the West.

We asked Tomoo Yamaji, an artist specializing in three-dimensional sculptures (who has a good knowledge of similarly-styled work in Japan) to choose his favorite artists - veteran and young, famous and relatively unknown. He came up with a list of eight artists that cumulatively represent the state of contemporary three-dimensional art in Japan.
