LDOE Day

You know how people say live every day as if it were your last? That's stupid...if people did that everyone would be running around screaming, stuffing their faces with drugs and shooting at anybody who annoyed them. Every day. But every once in awhile you should pick a day and live it as if it were your last chance to live that day.

If I was king there'd be a government agency that picks those days for you, randomly. Every five or ten years you'd get a notice in the mail:

Next Oct 21 is your own private LDOE (Last Day On Earth) day. Everything is all right. It's not really your last day on Earth (though that should not be taken as a legal guarantee). Please go crazy and do all the things you've always wanted to do. The following laws will not apply to you for the day...(drug enforcement, public drinking, public nudity [except in school zones], etc) The following laws will be extended or modified in the following ways...(speed limits upped [except in school zones], etc) The following laws still apply...(any violent crimes, etc)

Take the day off from work. The LDOE Agency will cover your salary and hire a replacement to cover your shift if needed. The Agency will also provide a nanny for the day if desired. The following incurred expenses are covered: food (up to $500), skydiving lessons, bike rental, motorcycle or car rental...etc. All museums and amusement parks are free to you. Just use the included LDOE Visa Card which will be active only on Oct 21.

You can of course go to work if you want to. In fact go to work and goof off for awhile. Wearing nothing but a clown wig. It's your day. Just keep in mind that while you can't be fired for anything you do on that day you still have to work with those people.

Contact the Agency at the following number 1-800-last-day if you have any questions or if you want to be included in one of the LDOE group activities.

And be sure to tell everyone you care about how you feel. Even if they might already know it's good to be reminded.

Enjoy!

Some Interesting Fractal Pics

It's not really the shapes that I find interesting here but the way the shapes are filled in and colored:

Bruno Bruno Bruno



One of my favorite works of fiction can be seen here.

Beatiful art, beautiful words, interesting words, many words, wonderful characters, sweetness, empathy, pain and so much life.

And now there's me (or a rather square-jawed version of me) with Bruno. (Does Bruno look a bit drunk?)

Thanks Christopher, I can't stop smiling everytime I look at this.
