PostSecret Exhibition

January 5th, 2006

Last night I had the pleasure of attending the PostSecret exhibition in Georgetown. Hundreds, thousands of secrets publicly displayed on postcards. Wierd, cool, public, personal. It was all kinds of things. Each postcard was an image, each image a thousand words, each one describing a journey. Through life, to realization, through the postal system, through the pile of mail, to this show.

I highly recommend it for anyone within a couple of hours drive.

Wed, Thurs, Fri 6pm-10pm
Sat & Sun 2pm-10pm

Girl Scout Parents’ cookies.

January 5th, 2006

Ask me about girl scout cookies!Okay … I just got an email from an acquaintance announcing that girl scout cookies are coming available again. Now, I’m fully aware that girl scout cookies are the best cookies, period, but I’m also fully opposed to buying girl scout cookies from non-girl scouts. From either moms or dads, either in the office or via email, I believe that it violates the spirit of the venture and breeds in the girls the idea that the work part of life is mommy/daddy’s job if I buy the cookies from parents.

Nevertheless my appetite has been whetted for girl scout cookies. So my question is this: are there any ACTUAL girl scouts out there selling girl scout cookies and if so, would they please contact me so that I may place an order.

Thanks.
