Inspiration
When someone talks about inspirational calendars I always think of the climber, with one hand dramatically gripped to the cliff...hanging in mid-air...and the line reads something like "Perseverance" or something to do with "living" life. I began thinking about other months of inspiration like the hang-glider and such. Who really got inspiration from these pre-x-gamers? Did someone really see a climber risking his/her life at sunset as inspiration to go and persevere through their mediocre job? I wonder...how did someone make money on this concept? Granted, people have made money on far dumber things (i.e. pooper scoopers, koosh balls, and those little "pill-like" things that expand into little animal shaped sponges in water), but let's all be honest, inspirational calendars...they've got to be on this list. Let's take a hippie's point of view:
"Art is my life, and my life is art...every drop in the ocean counts" -Yoko Ono
Be inspired...or not.

I gonna go ahead and say that I don't find any inspiration in cliff-hangers, calenders, or yoko ono.
thanks for your thoughts on my last blog.
and you should get rid of the word verification on comments.
yeah, that stupid thing where you have to type in crazy looking letters to leave a comment. but you know that now cuz they are gone.
for the record, i LOVED those pill-shaped sponge things that changed into animals...LOVED.
i know you are not surprised.
