I took another one of those quizzes, you know the kind that tell you what color and personality traits you are. Somehow the billions of people in the world carefully all fit within a 5 color personality profile. My seems to be right on, it must have been written just for me.

you are a YELLOW personality with the driving Core Motivation of fun. This does not mean that you are constantly looking for a party (although you usually do know where to find one!). You are instinctively happy and gravitate to people and situations that provide carefree adventure and playful interactions. Even under the most serious of circumstances or daunting tasks, you and your YELLOW friends will seek an element of personal fulfillment and spontaneous enjoyment in the experience. Spontaneous play and genuine "in the moment" FUN are not merely important to you – they are as essential to your very being as eating.

As a YELLOW, you are inviting and embrace life as a party that you're hosting. You love playful interaction and can be extremely sociable. You are highly persuasive and seek instant gratification. YELLOWS need to be adored and praised, especially by their loved ones. While you are carefree, you are quite sensitive and highly alert to others' agendas to control you. You carry within yourself the gift of a good heart, and are happy to share it with your significant other.

As a YELLOW, you need to look good socially and friendships command a high priority in your life. You are happy, articulate, engaging of others and crave adventure. Easily distracted, you can never sit still for long. You embrace each day in the "present tense" and choose people to be around whom, like you, enjoy a curious nature.

Last spring, my sister and I were on the subway when we saw a very odd piece of footwear. It was a flip flop that had an entire boot attachment. Now, I thought this was quite peculiar, considering a boot is for colder temperatures and flip flops seem to be for the most hottest of temperatures, if not, just schlepping around. I guess the fashion of the piece is in the contrast (hot/cold?), but I was intrigued, naming this new contraption the blip blop, half boot, half flip flop, full nonsense.

Being so clever on coming up with the name, I searched the internet for the one i saw and i just couldn't find it...until now. This is so hot right now, The blip blop; street name, sandal. Wow, i didn't know a sandal went up your ankle. I guess if the toes fit, it's a sandal.

I went to go see Audion (AKA Matthew Dear) and Clark Warner at Le Poisson Rouge and it was an awesome live show with some great visual effects, leading to some fun photos. I l0ve when you can get special effects without the aid of Photoshop. The creativity is when you're actually shooting, which happens to be very difficult when you're dancing your ass off!

This is Clark Warner




It was super dark at the venue, but I got up close and personal with Audion (Matthew Dear)

The park always has new things for me to discover, even though I've been there a million times. This was no exception, this was my thanksgiving.













The FAA released the recording from the cockpit of the Northwest Airlines pilots who overshot the Minneapolis, Minnesota, airport last month. The pilots told air traffic control that they had dropped from radio contact because of "cockpit distraction."

WOW...insert appropriate or non appropriate joke here ____


Read the article HERE to see who the men are that are in charge of getting 144 people to their destination safely. So what can possibly distract these men so much that they flew over a 100 miles out of the way? I think if you're in charge of actual lives, you should be more on your game and not really getDistracted.

However, us passengers have to basically strip naked before security, take off our shoes and basically get treated like prisoners. I can't bring a frigging nail clipper or anything over 4 ounces onto the plane, but it's OK for the pilot to get distracted in the cockpit? I think I can do a lot less damage with a pair of little scissors and a bottle of water (unless of course I was MacGyver) than these poor excuses for pilots.
