Selcouth Pleasantries
If my life was the conveyor belt at the chocolate factory where Lucy and Ethel tried their hand at working, then this blog would be where Lucy tried to shove all the escaping chocolate.
These men are window washers at a children’s hospital in Pittsburg. Some might think the job is menial, but to the kids who are horribly ill, looking out their window seeing their favorite superhero at their window makes all the pain go away for a bit. And that would make the job worthwhile.

A Beautiful Walkable Map for Berlin’s 775th Anniversary
Though the exhibit is no longer on display, many visitors shared their photographs on Instagram. See more photos of the walkable map on the Schlossplatz location page!
In 2012, Berlin celebrated its 775th anniversary. Among the many festivities, several large open-air exhibitions were constructed, including a beautiful walkable map of Berlin, called City of Diversity, placed in front of the largest church in the city.
The walkable map was built as a celebration of Berlin’s many years of immigration history and diversity. It was constructed by a group of artists using a 1:775 scale and 274 stencils, featuring giant colored pins with fascinating explorable facts and stories about migration to Berlin on them. Each colored pin explored a different current or historic topic of diversity in the city, ranging from religion and politics to music and culture.
Awesome installation!

Sometimes I hate being a writer.
And I think that’s because I hate the subjectivity of it all, am still trying to learn how to write simply for me and no one else.
But that’s kind of the problem too, isn’t it? When you wanna be a professional writer, you have to remember who your audience is….
It’s a glasses sort of day…
