This morning I fell back to sleep and had one of those dreams where I got up and got ready for work. I should have figured out it was a dream when I gathered up all my clothing and headed out to catch the T. Once I boarded I took a shower on board the trolley in a public shower which replaced the booth for the conductor/door guard. That was a definite clue that I was not really awake and going to work, because I never take the trolley! Sounds like a good idea though to have showers on public transit. Imagine the efficiency for those of us who are always running late to work!
Anyhow, it was one of those days, so here are some links:
- For kids: Watch it – this art is on the move! by Sue Wunder (Christian Science Monitor, 1/8/08) – I experienced the Clouds exhibition at Dublin’s Irish Museum of Modern Art. There were a bunch of school kids playing with the clouds and it would have made a great photo, but photography was prohibited and I’m a flagrant rule follower. It just occurred to me that visit to the art museum will be 10 years ago on January 22nd. Man am I old!
- The Secret History of the Revolving Door by J Morrison (nonist, 1/10/08) – an amusing if perhaps factually challenged history to be sure.
- Actual Urban Nature Post by Jef Taylor (The Urban Pantheist, 1/16/08) – talks about the coyote in the North End and has a great quote about where “the wild” is for wild animals.
- Diagramming the Preamble (1/17/08) in which Mallard Fillmore’s Bathtub teaches a civics lesson by way of English class. He also reminds us that today is Benjamin Franklin’s 302nd birthday.
