I would take a course on photography. I would like to learn more about lighting and composition.

Sorry. I know it was necessary for art to evolve, but that doesn't mean that I have to like it or appreciate it. Okay, maybe I can appreciate it b/c I appreciate rebellion.

Let me help. The composition of Wonk and camera should lead to the darkest lighting possible. Try pitch, no flash.

I would not take any art-type class. I would probably take cooking classes, seriously including knife work because I'm a very inefficient chopper and my pieces tend to be uneven. |

On the contrary. I shall coax him away from trying to sit on me and crush my internal organs with a seductive trail of Donut Holes leading elsewhere.

Speaking of being a geek, I've been going through course catalogues for local continuing education departments, art schools, and learning annexes to find a nice summer course to take. I'm leaning towards either an art course (collage, probably, I have a lot of crap that maybe I could turn into art) or a writing course (screenwriting, probably, I have a lot of crap in my head that maybe I could turn into a movie). Though I think that there's a six week wine tasting course at Sur La Table. There's also a kyacking class down at Clear Lake, should I decide not to watch this year's Last Comic Standing.
Poll question:

Documentary film making
Piano
Chinese
Guitar

I know I do. And I want a baby like this:
15-month old 55 lb baby.
The shocker here is that he's NOT AMERICAN, but Georgian (old USSR Georgian). See here: http://www.local6.com/news/3367908/detail.html
|
Nevertheless, he's already being recruited by Miami, Georgia and Michigan.

Sorry. There was a huge Rosenquist retrospective in two museums simultaneously here last year. There was also a 200 piece modern art exhibit (if anyone's in Berlin before September 19, go see The Heroic Century). I thought they were both fantastic, and I get irritated with people who dismiss modern or abstract art as bullshit.

Bore us! Bore us! Did they send any of your severed digits to your family? Did they make you read a statement condemning something or other? Tiger cage? Duct tape? Hmmm?
As for the other story, that's what you get for going to the drive-through. The genteel and sophisticated crowd can only be found inside the restaurant. And maybe Eminem couldn't read, and was only acting out of his rage and shame, you literacist fuck. |

Your sourpuss avatar becomes more becoming by the minute, sourpuss. And I think you forgot to press the "old" button about six or seven times when you were creating it, btw. Nice, though. Really. It is. |

In no particular order:
1. A course in music composition or recording methods.
2. Golf -- to improve my crappy game, and as an excuse to play more often.
3. Metalworking.
4. Woodworking/Cabinetry
5. Creative Writing

You can't get irritated if I do that. I don't get irritated with people who don't dismiss it as bullshit. It's art. Like what you like.
