measurement
When you measure what you are speaking about and express it in numbers, you know something about it, but when you cannot (or do not) measure it, you cannot (or do not) express it in number, then your knowledge is a meager and unsatisfactory kind…. If you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it.
– Lord Kelvin, 1883

Kickstarters work. Have you ever watched an Improv Everywhere video or read a report? Did it make you smile? We don’t HAVE to put a price on that smile… but if you were going to give money to a project, why not one that has already made you smile.

Yes, there were times, I’m sure you knew, when I bit off more than I could chew, but through it all, when there was doubt, I ate it up and spit it out. I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way.

i like this
To seek elegance rather than luxury and refinement rather than fashion; To be worthy, not respectable…and wealthy, not rich. To study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly. To listen to stars and birds; to babes and sages, with open heart. To bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never. To let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common. This...

outthereatlanta:
Evereman is not the only Atlanta street artist who does something other than graffiti. There is at least one person doing yarn bombing/guerrilla knitting/yarnstorming out there. What is that? It’s what you see below. See it in person on N Highland close to Manuel’s, or look up more information here.
We think it’s pretty cool stuff and it hasn’t hurt these trees. If you...

heavy stuff
Whether you agree with it or not, kids have already started being taken from their homes for being too overweight. Ludwig says the idea for state intervention in obesity cases came to him when he met a 90-pound 3-year-old whose parents were poor, disabled, and unable to control her weight. By the time she was 12, she weighed 400 pounds and had developed diabetes, at which point the Massachusetts...

baciandbears:
so once upon a time I didn’t like tomatoes. Then I went to Mexico and had really good tomatoes and made myself like them. I don’t know if I actually like tomatoes but I always order them on sandwiches, but never in salads.
Anyway, I recently though oh! I should like cucumbers. I should like them…
i love my friends. i also love cucumbers.
