Stick Man Art

As many of you know, I collect stick man photos. That is to say, I shoot pictures of stick man signs and stickers, etc. So I was excited to see this brilliant album cover. And yes, I do have most of the above stickmen.

Miniature Golf at Work

This is how I spent most of my day at work today. We designed and built a little par five course in the middle of our work area. The Events team used a scoring system of 1 -5 based on 3 categories: Playability, Creativity, and Use of Theme (US Landmarks). My deptartment scored an almost perfect 14.5 out of 15 possible points.

Here's our course (it's a coast to coast theme). You start out by the Hollywood sign, jump the Grand Canyon, turn the corner of cheering fans, go thru the Mount Rushmore tunnel, past the Brooklyn Bridge and in the cup at Ellis Island, but don't knock down the Statue of Liberty

Performance: it's the name of the game

This is totally me (all except for the leg shaving). Thanks to DrB for the video.

Back From Japan

We just got back from Japan last night and I have started to go thru the 1,256 pix that we took, but it will take a while before I can finish the photo editing... plus I'm a little jet-lagged still. So, here's some random pix to tide you over until I can get them paired down and up on Flikr. We had a great time and it was an amazing experience. What a different and beautiful world it is over there...
