Hey, you libertarian, right-leaning, hard-working soul... I have some questions for you:
Since the media has proved itself utterly unprofessional, will you keep watching it? Listening to it? Because your patronage helps them pay their bills...
If not the media you can't stand, what? What are you willing to do?
With whom do you locally meet regularly to support local politicians as you might support?
We're independent souls, us libertarians. Group action isn't really our thing...
But it needs to be if we're gonna fight the liberal onslaught coming our way. The media won't help us. Republicans, a clueless lot, won't help us. And individually, since we're not Rush Limbaugh-like in our impact, we're not likely to have much impact.
Time to get serious. Time to get involved.
Could be a lot of fun, working together.
Or we can all sit around and yell at the TV while we pay more taxes.
An acrylic sketch I did a while back, reformatted for cell phone wallpaper:
As mentioned a few days ago, I'll be doing more actual art and less work on the Dare drawing pad, like I have been. I'll leave the medium open, but remain committed to creating art daily. Besides, I like changing my cell phone wallpaper every day.
And here's the poster that I've created as a suggestion to promote the creative capabilities of the LG Dare.
(You can sign up to have new wallpaper sent to you daily by picture message.)
When my folks and Tamara and I went to Vegas, we had the most wonderful time. Truly unforgettable. The kind of trip you remember to your grave.
We flew out and took Midwest Airlines, where they serve chocolate chip cookies - warm! - in flight. The best airlines I've been on in some time. The seats were comfy, even for me who is a big guy.
Check out this cutest of kids a couple of rows ahead of us...
We stayed at the MGM Signature, on the 29th floor, where we enjoyed an amazing view and privacy.
Prior to this trip, I'd never stepped foot in a casino - and I learned that I didn't care for them. Noisy, stinky, non-social. I don't get the appeal.
But we did do a lot of walking, ate at some amazing places... (here's Mom and Tamara at a low-lighted dinner)
And we enjoyed some astounding art and decor. This, from the Bellagio:
Tamara and I also went up into the Stratosphere. I'll have more pics from that tomorrow, as all of these were taken with my Dare, and tomorrow's pics will be from my Sony Cybershot.
We saw Bette Midler's show, which had beautiful art direction, and had funny moments, but she was totally trumped the following night when we saw Terry Fator, the guy who won America's Got Talent. The best way i can say this is: I wouldn't take my friends to Bette's show, where they about strip-searched us for cameras and the show was, of course, raunchy but funny and, in spots, odd. But I would bring everyone I know to Terry Fator's show and pay their way in. We laughed the entire show. I could bring my kids to see him. And he is immensely talented. He's also humble and human, and encouraged us to use our cameras...
But because of our experience the prior evening at Bette's show, we didn't bring our cameras, which was too bad, because I became part of the act. I was Terry's puppet, dressed as Cher.
Here's a bit of video from it:
A woman named Carol forwarded this to us (thank you!) whose email address we obtained after the show. My parents and Tamara were howling while I was up there.
