This came from another part of the world.

It is made out of particles from Africa, Europe, and America!

I am excited because I am going to Paris in one week! Look for me in business class, wearing a onesie.

You might have heard that I like pets

There is a bunny in Alabama looking for a home for Easter. Also, a Blue Heeler.

Elsewhere, some kids were recently late to their babysitter, an angry lady threw a bunch of stuff around, and some puppies are missing!

But if you were worried about what the world is coming to, don't be, because this Australian Cattle Dog swam five miles through shark infested waters, survived on an island called Saint Bees (who is Saint Bees??) for months by eating wild goats, and then got rescued and went back to normal!





Okay, seriously, who is Saint Bees???

Popover and kefir sales are down...

Last night Whole Foods celebrated Earth Hour by turning off "non-essential" lights in the store. I was there on the scene at the Union Square Whole Foods, where the Earth Hour Promise was translated as killing the lights in the bagel/scone case, the refrigerated dairy case, the leafy green vegetable wall. Not dimmed were the lights in the frozen food case, over the salad bar, and... everywhere else.

In other "green news," the new issue of Metropolitan Home is about eco-friendly construction and renovation. The highlights for me: lots of cedar-slat screens, a modernist organic community garden in Napa, cargotecture (container architecture) and some meatball recipes.

In me news, you might already know that I just got back from Morocco, but you might not know that I am addicted to the paddle ball game that came with my phone. I started playing it on the airplane home, and now, I play it on the subway to avoid thinking about the messed up train schedules and annoying commuters.

Your mission (or, ARG)

Subject: Documentary Film Project Opportunity

Emmy Award Winning Creator of Word World on PBS Kids Seeks Documentary Team to Record the Creation of a New, Innovative, Tween Property:

The creator and CEO of Emmy Award winning Preschool series Word World, which airs on PBS Kids, is ramping up to launch a new, technology-based tween entertainment property. It's partially funded by the Department of Education, and teaches literacy through an entirely new genre: experiential fiction, or "x-fi": an interactive story format that offers new, more meaningful ways for fans to interact with media. The property simultaneously features animated TV storytelling, webisodes, mobile applications, gaming and content, graphic novels, online gaming experiences which influence the outcome of the overall "mission", collector cards, a peer-to-peer social network that includes blogging, emails, and texting, and offline components including real world challenges, meetings and prizes to be sent directly to kid participants.

The development team of this property is comprised of best in class creators: an Emmy award winning TV producer, an MIT expert in gaming, an urban fashion and lifestyle mogul,a creator of Spawn and Batman, and an inventor of the Alternate Reality Game (or ARG) movement -- the creator of the first well known ARG called "The Beast".

We are looking for a student or group of students with a strong interest and some background in documentary. If interested, please contact xxxxx at xxxxx@blablabla.com with a resume, a brief essay explaining why you would like to be involved in the project, and preferred method of contact. If you meet the qualifications, you will be contacted for an interview.

Happy Valentines Day to you!

I'm at the airport and I just went to the saddest Jamba Juice ever: that song 'Heartbeats' by the Knife was playing... Over and over. At first I was psyched, but then the reality of the situation became clear. Now I never want to hear that song again.

I'm going to Mexico, p.s.

There are lots of children, foreigners, and old people on this flight, and one of the stewardesses is very high strung. But who cares, because in 6 hours I'll be eating mangoes and sitting in a palapa wearing a sun dress.

Omg, I think possibly all the children on this plane are one family.

Anyways, so long, suckas!

What excites the French?

I have so many questions about this, but I don't know where to start.

Do you remember how you felt when you learned how the eyeball works, visited the Sagrada Familia, got to the end of "Planet of the Apes," or found out how much people care about purses? You know, like, "I thought I understood this world, but now, looking at this unfinished cathedral that's still being built, I realize that it is vast and mysterious, and I will never really understand it." That's how I feel when I watch this video.
