I think my instance is actually what WanderingEng posted below.

I want a bug or ant like creature that glows different colors constantly.

I completely agree. I always ask myself how people get put into professional positions when they act this way. I wonder this about many things relating to businesses. How do they succeed so greatly when they do xyz, etc..

Really though, how does one attain such a management level position when they act unprofessional in manners like this?

I should also say that I had no idea what Aeon Magazine was and it's pretty cool.

I find this article about Aeon Magazine quite interesting..

The CEO of Aeon Magazines father is one of the richest people in Australia being a head of a hedge fund..

Oh how true this is! My town, city, and state are not destined for walking but oh how I would love to take off walking or even bicycling everywhere I want or need to go. There isn't really anything stopping me beside the requirement of a bicycle in that case but it's just not ingrained, habit, or something I really even think of doing.

Everything where I live is 1/4 mile apart +/-, but could technically be walked but would take more time and effort.

I'm thinking GNC is the unnamed store. I think the supplement industry needs to have more strict regulations especially here in the USA. You can claim to have a cure for cancer in your supplement and sell it all you want here. They are unregulated.

What a frustrating time this family went through. They both show remarkable strength through this. I do wonder though if Jennie ever has inside thoughts about Kristian and him with their other kids.

I just discovered this. I'm not really into politics as I believe they all lie to get elected then follow the money train... I'm surprised this doesn't have more comments.

I really got the same feelings coffeesp00ns got in your post. I can certainly see an artistic side to this and I really hope you continue on your path learning and learning.

We could see you posting about how you're entered in a photography contest or photography art gallery before we know it!

Why don't we do this.. I'd agree to this!

How much it cost? Do you have a 3D printer or ? You have the 3D file? I know at my library one can use a 3D printer and this would be great. I want!

Wow! Really cool.. I wonder how the color lasts on the tattoo.

> Often people who aren't productive members in our society are seen to have less value and an even lesser meaning of life. We are practically raised to believe that without a good job you can't live a fulfilling and meaningful life.

You're spot on! The perception in America in regards to the type of job you have is judged by everyone.

What is going on up there?

Bleu  ·  3414 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: Outrage. [OC digital art]

I like your triangles and your digital art. I really wish you would do more of a variety though. I know you posted something that looks very very similar to this a few days ago. I clicked your link looking for a bit more honestly. I would love to learn to digitally create art but never get in a creative mood to learn.

I don't get the point in the apple watch. You have to keep your phone in the general area where you want to make/receive calls on the watch so that part is useless. Your phone can act as a pedometer/GPS, etc.. so that part of the watch is useless. The watch is just pointless in my opinion.

Bleu  ·  3428 days ago  ·  link  ·    ·  parent  ·  post: How was your weekend?

My weekend was just okay. It wasn't the best weekend ever or the worst. I watched fireworks with my wife and then her mother came to our house and visited with us for a few hours. I'm unemployed at this time just having lost my job on July 2nd. I've applied quite a few places but haven't heard anything back yet. I hope I can find something today or sometime this week, I hope.

I have a deep desire to become an artist but I don't have the patience to practice drawing. I just sit here at my computer applying at places and aimlessly browsing the internet. I'm 27 years old.. I need to get motivated.

I too enjoyed the DIY posts. I really like what you did on this piece. I wouldn't think asking someone to make a sculpture is very common especially at a frame shop, is it a common request?

Does it have holes for wedding pictures or is it just a statue of sorts that represents something?

I think you did a great job on craftsmanship and such but I think its kind of weird they wanted their grand-daughter included. Is it a sort of memorial for her?

Aww! The little pup is sure trying to reach the camera operator. Thanks for sharing.

My wife and I had tacos today. I tried to get her to have some grilled cheeseburgers with me this evening (EST) but she wasn't having it! We did have cheeseburgers yesterday though. I love good ole' American cheeseburgers nice and greasy with a nice thick sesame seed bun with ketchup, mustard, pickles, onion, and mayonnaise. Yum! Absolutely delicious!
