Ok..this is pretty great. From PSFK
“Guangzhou Supports You!” is a new crowdsourced, hyper-local online photography activity in Guangzhou, China. The original premise of the activity was to recruit Guangzhou residents who support Chen Yang, a popular outspoken Guangzhou CCTV news anchor who was not afraid to say what was on his mind even if on live Chinese television – he swiftly lost his job. However, the activity has since evolved into a collective community-wide expression of love and affection toward the city. “Guangzhou Supports You!” is getting attention and praise from just about everyone in China, but especially from Chinese netizens who are very actively supporting it on their blogs, in discussion forums, and on local social networking sites.
“Guangzhou Supports You!” works like this: the organizers supply a “Guangzhou Supports You!” graphic (at right) via download from the official website. This graphic is the centerpiece of the entire activity. Participants simply need to choose their favorite place in Guangzhou – any corner, alley, place, space, etc. will do – take a photo with the graphic appearing somewhere in the resulting photograph, and then upload the photograph to the “Guangzhou Supports You!” website where it’s aggregated with other participants’ submissions and shared with everyone.

Sometimes I surprise even myself. Loving this song. I don’t know. Super hot.
So…it’s been all work and no play around here..or at least all stress and no inspiration. That might be closer to it. If any one is still reading this…post me a note. Might re-evaluate this spot..change it up to something different. Open to suggestions.
Ok, my friend Laurie sent me this one…this is some funny..funny stuff, this is worth signing up for Twitter for a daily laugh. Shitmydadsays.

Here are some really good ones…

Got to see a part of the country I haven’t seen before, met some new people, experienced some new things. Really good times. And thank you Andrew.. for the pointed quote, “And in the end, it’s not the years in your life that count, it’s the life in your years.- Abraham Lincoln” I’m personally a firm believer in that one.
This shopping center on Sheridan has always mystified me. Really? You can get all these services in one spot? Kitchen design, fresh ground sausage, Italian pastries, funeral service and Cremations? Convenient..but a little bit unnerving frankly.
Ok..I’m doing some research for a couple different projects. And came across this alarming fact. In Alabama there are no background checks required to purchase a rifle, shotgun or handgun..YET..it is ILLEGAL to sell sex toys. So..you can walk into a store and walk out with a handgun..yet you cannot walk into a store and walk out with a vibrator. Huh?!
(I realize that is neither a handgun or a vibrator..but an ACR and an Obama dildo..but you get my point. Right?)
I’m still amazed when I see a fox running around Denver. This one was close to downtown.
Just met this little fellow on my run this evening. Boy after my own heart. His name starts with a J. And it’s a pretty cool name. But I won’t post it here. So..we chatted for a bit by the dumpster and here is how it went..
“hi!”
“hi. what are you doing?”
“lookin for stuff”
“oh yeah? what kind of stuff?”
“stuff I can use to build things”
“nice. that’s a good place to find things to build things. I like to do that too.”
“do you need any granite or sinks?”
“um..no. not right now.”
“oh. ok. well if you do, my dad is about to open a store. I can show you the office, and get you a card.”
“no, that’s ok. I’ll come back ok?”
“ok!”
My god. What a cutie pie. A builder AND a salesman. He’s got a bright future ahead.
