First off, Husbandman and I are watching Seinfeld's series called Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee. Our favorite episode so far is with Brian Regan. I never heard of Brian Regan before, but now he's one of my best friends. The premise of this show is a good one, but where are the women comedians, Jer?
Nextly, there's a new exhibit at the National Portrait Gallery called American Cool, with portraits of the 100 coolest Americans. The curators used 4 points to determine coolitude, which I will now share with you via a bulleted list:
- Original work with distinctive style
- Rebelliousness, or transgressiveness
- Icon status
- Cultural Legacy
You only need to have 3 of the 4 to be in the exhibit, and I've decided I have 1, 2, and 4 and am, thusly, cool.
And last but not least, there is a problem with a creative installation by Tony Matelli over at Wellesley College. Some of the peeps don't like Matelli's sculpture, called Sleepwalker. I think it's okay, so it stays, Wellesley.
It's a wrap. Thursday Creativity Share.

I think I would only qualify for 1 and 2, but I'm proud to qualify for at least two (at least in my opinion). Instead of being productive, I think I'm going to the Google machine to find the list.
Oops! I just looked at the list. Obvi, I don't qualify for 1 or 2 either :(
I think you have 1, 2, and 4 like me. Our blogs are our cultural legacies. We have to work on 3, achieving iconic status.
J, I think this year away is turning me into a weather wimp. It's going to be tough going next year. Maybe we can go buy some cool coats and boots for me when I get back????? I'm really wanting some boots.
