Not dropping art

I was recently asked, "why don't you have more art on-line?" To answer the question i simply said... I have a big project in the works. It is a personal project that has lasted a little over 5 years. I'm hoping to make it publicly accessible. I just need to plug away until all the pieces are ready. I just don't know when that will be as I try to balance, work, play, life and the project. Them is the breaks. ~ Enjoy.

sorting out

I love the books, then I should play the part...
I'm a Ravenclaw! Pretty obscure.... Like me self. ~ Enjoy!

I forgot about this interview... http://theglasscoin.com/gregarious-perspectives-art-by-richard-grzela/ Glad I did it. It was pretty amazing to be offered the opportunity to share some of my work and background.

14,000 +

When I started this blog many years ago, it was with the idea of practice literacy in the new digital age. It is not so new now. It has changed and evolved. I'm thankful for it in some ways. Though I have had over 14,000 visits since. I never thought I would have had so many folks take an interest in the writing, art and simply perspectives on life that I share on this blog. It has been really fun just to write,express and be a web/internet presence of a sort. If only we could translate those visits into an income or real social connection. Maybe the internet can still be improved, though this is a happy little thing I built with the blog host of course. I suppose other folks will come along to fill the space as I decide how or if I'll continue with the posts. For now it is just what it is. A chance to participate in the present and future of the world both real and digital. ~ Enjoy.

Locked in a tube....

Yesterday I was locked in a tube not once, not twice but three times. Then I was launched as fast as my body weight would take me down all 3 of Edmonton's most extreme water slides as found at the west Edmonton mall. All three has you locked in. All three have a count down. All three have have a floor that drops out from under your feet. Before you know what happens your blowing water out your nose, gasping for breath and you are at the bottom of the slide. AWESOME! There is a slide that makes you feel like your being flushed down a drain or toilet or what ever other comparable example you can think of. Very odd sensation swirling about just before you plunge into a pool 5 feet deep. Again AWESOME! It is expensive to get into the water park. $40+ tax per person as of this writing. Though you can not have the water park sensation any place else. There is even a float water slide similar to the a float down the Nile River, except your indoors on a tube and need not worry about gators or hippos. Just a casual fun tube slide. Over all, a must for a thrill seeker. 5 hours of stair climbing seams like much, but you have so much fun navigating the vertical maze of stairs you hardly notice the time go by. The fun is really a huge part of the fitness while hanging out here. I did so much over the last two days I can't share all in one post, though I wish you could all be here with me. WEST EDMONTON MALL IS A MUST GO TO SWIMMING SPOT. ~ Enjoy!

Russia scoops my blog

Lately a large number of visits have been from Russia. Well I do have a prediction for them. If you political clowns don't stop taking over property and shooting planes out of the sky, the western world is about to open up a can of Whoop @$$ on you. Already the markets are reflecting the actions westerners about to take. Communists population will suffer far more than the regime running the country. I just want to point out the obvious... Taliban assassination by a tactical team could happen again with president Vlad Putin. The world is not so large that you can hide forever, that has been proven now too. I suggest that you gather your resources folks on both sides of the pond. WW3 is just around the corner. This time it might be far more atomic. ~ Enjoy.

when I grow up...

Alright I might never really grow up, though this might be a fun toy to purchase if I ever get a real job.

I found this while searching the web and it had a pinterest tag to it. I couldn't even guess at the real source of the photo. Sure looks like fun though. I have to say I was much more partial to the Big Wheel at the time. I would go Big Wheel over the green of that was an option... Skidding around was the best on those things.
