Excited People
Been thinking about German Expressionism some, lately.
It was a particular topic of interest, when I was schoolin'...
This is a painting by Emil Nolde.
Not sure I would exactly lump him in with the whole German Expressionist camp for any reason beyond that of convenience.
There is some overlap I guess, but he was kinda his own deal.
Woodcuts from that camp may be my favorite, on an aesthetic level, but they were all painting and experimenting with other media.
Nolde always had it, for me, with color in his painting...
I might need a museum day, soon.
This is a bit of a ramble.
Looking at art is cool...

Death Wish
Do you secretly wish I was dead?
Here is a great chance to get me to off myself...
Just buy this, get it across the pond, to my door, with a gas card.
And wait.
I am sure nature will take it's course...
More info over here.

Portland Noise
I have been on a Portland music kick lately.
There is a distinct sound to that city, at least to my ears...
It's not genre specific.
It's an under current, a tone, maybe...
And then, here is a new bit from an old band, that just popped up.
'Sup Stumptown?

Baseball Season
I can hardly wait for the mighty robot-god of baseball to open his head and shoot out the first ball of the season...
That is how it works, right?

Two Wheels Tuesday
The ability to build a bad-ass knuckle with a rainbow, stars and pink-bubble-letter "Oh Baby" paint job is really something special...

It's like a civic duty.

Formula 5000 Friday
My little sister got me a Formula 5000 pin, some time ago...
There was it and a little plastic race car in a plastic bag, from some vintage store, out somewhere...
Anyway, it is right here next to my computer. I look at it all the time, but never thought about the race series.
Here is a Formula 5000 race, at Lime Rock, 1970...

Show Time
Yeah, I know...
I am not really a show guy.
But there is this one.
It seems like it is cool, from a distance...
Never been.
I would really just like to go to Portland to sleep on my friends floors, maybe shoot some pool at creepy booby-bars, talk about life and drink a lot of beer...
But it seems like I could have used this show as a cover story for all of that.
You oughta go.

AMBR Monday
Lest you think I have forgotten about hot rods and have gone soft in the head, from whatever might do that to me...
Here, look at this.
I haven't seen a lot of cars that flip my noodle switch, for a while.
This was one of the AMBR contenders at the GNRS.
I like it for not exactly following the formula and being cooler for it...
