So here is the plan for Heritage days

When: 1:30 PM Saturday

Where: We need a country that doesn't favor anyone so I choose the neutral country of Spain.

Who: You, me and anyone else that shows up

How: Park and ride or if you want we can carpool park at the U and walk down. Either way will work.

Why: Long weekend!

Don't worry if you can't come exactly on time, we'll be there a while and you can phone my cell at: 221-6414

See you all there!

That's so exciting Dana (and Jere). Congratz!

Yay! I'm so excited. Jere and I decided to go to San Francisco for a honeymoon!

where's the met? New York?

No match. I guess it could have been worse. I can't think of how, though, short of Lowe going scorched earth and, I don't know, stabbing Hemsky in both eyes. I know he's going to get fired sooner or later, burning the future (in terms of cap room and draft picks) on a longshot just makes it that much worse.

Oh, and in what's increasingly become a support group, there's street hockey at Lister Hall Sunday at 2:00. Come. Play. Commiserate.

Tay, you'd love the Met. You could probably spend three days there (I know I would have gone for a couple if I could have), but it's massive and, depending on your timing with respect to what they put out, you'd probably see that whole list of artists there. (Would that I could remember more than a few names, but I'm bad enough with them on a small scale, and this place was simply an art-splosion.)

And it's also admission by donation (though they suggest $20 for an adult).

that was the one thing I didn't do when I was in Vancouver. I had a really good time doing everything else, but damn if I'm not jealous of you Talor... all those famous artists together in one place...

any stand-out pieces in your opinion?



hell, what am I complaining about? I got to see a Klimt exhibition in Paris...

still... Dali would've been awesome.

Hmm... maybe I should have answered 'yes' when the guy saying he was calling on behalf of the Prime Minister asked me if I was a supporter of the Conservative Party. At least it might have led to an explanation for the call, instead of him just thanking me for my time and hanging up...

WTF? hahaha:

on the topic of Dali, I saw a number of Dali originals when I visited the art gallery in Vancouver a couple days ago.

I also saw originals by:

Paul Cezanne, Pablo Picasso, Edouard Manet, Claude Monet, Piet Mondrian, Paul-Albert Besnard, Vincent Van Gogh, Henri Matisse, Pierre Bonnard, Georges Braque, Gustave Courbet, Edgar Degas, Max Ernst, Paul Gauguin, Fernand Leger, Rene Magritte, Joan Miro, Amadeo Modigliani, Camille Pissaro, Pierre Auguste Renoir, Auguste Rodin, Henry Rousseau, and George Seurat

PRETTY FUCKIN KILLER. Tuesdays are free by donation at the van art gallery. FUCKSYES.
