The Dream Reading Device.

I know I want too many things I don't need. But hey, look at this Dream Reading Device, The Library Bath by Malin Lundmark. Every reading is a lot more readable with it I can picture that.

Certain uncertainties.



certain uncertainties
human beings live upon
were given more than a few names

fate, hope, chance, risk, luck, prospect, venture, investment, expectancy, gamble, weather forecast, paper-scissors-rock, upcoming fashion trend, actuarial science, he-loves-me-he-loves-me-not, etc

now take the perspective of the universe's architect
these certain uncertainties
could be a killer trick to make the framework of the game interesting for human beings

so they think it worth their while staying alive

definitely maybe it is


- a thought after overheard a stranger complained about inaccurate weather forecast

UK artist Stuart Semple unveiled "Happy Cloud", an installation artwork of over 2000 pink smiling faces made from soap, helium and vegetable dye from the Tate Modern towards London's financial district.

Are you happy now?
Need a dose of happy?

Another Kind Reminder.


"Create Your Future or It Will Create You"
The little note I wrote myself on the morning I woke up from a bad dream.

And I pledge myself to Create, today and every day.

Overheard in Agency #1


Matter of Urgency.

Client: Why you didn't response to my urgent email?
Agency Girl: Really? (looking it up...) You mean the one you wrote about the teaser page?
Client: Yea. Yea, I sent it this morning and I supposed a 4-hour response time is more than enough to handle our urgent request.
Agnecy Girl: Sorry but you title almost all your emails urgent. I thought it's as urgent as the rest of the requests.
Client: No I titled it "Very Urgent!!" instead of "Urgent!". You should be able to tell the difference.
Agency Girl: Oh! Last time you used "Top Urgent!!!" when it was indeed urgent. And you're usually fine with a 1-day turn-around for the not-so-urgent cases.
Client: But I marked "Very Urgent!!"!!! Didn't I?

Story hung.



Was looking at the uncrafted direct response ad on the concrete wall.
It almost tells a story. Is itself almost a story.

A yet more convenient life.

There are things that wow you in a nice way in a daily basis if you pay attention. One big reason it's still great to live in the 21st century given the world's a big piece of mess (or it never is in place in its own history? that's another question.)

I wish they make some books-in-pills after these travel-towels-in-pills. Imagine a travel book shows up after the pill soaked a little water.

Wow.
