Idea Tuesday:: Heroes

I define heroes as people in possession of qualities I aspire too. I think it's good to aspire to things. At the same time, I recognize the fallibility of our heroes so it's always wise to approach those we deem heroes as mere examples and not structured models. I read Heidegger. I do not aspire to be Heidegger. Many of those I would add to my list of heroes are drunks and womanizers and not always shining examples of morality. But they all have something.

Idea Tuesday:: New Message Board

I want to craft a new message board for me and my fella so we can leave each other notes and little reminders. And, I want it to be cute. Here are my ideas...

Digging the chalk globes as a message board.

Just need to figure out where to put them.

This message board gives new meaning to the traditional cork board.

I would need to start drinking more wine, however.
