Accidental Quiet

Easier to see how dependent you are on head shakes and hand gestures when your microphone is broken.



And that would have been an awesome video.  It was about one of the latest strangers to sign up for The Carrot Project.  When I emailed him to ask who he was and how he found us, he replied totally enthusiastically and told me he'd introduce to a friend of his, a man he thinks will soon become an excellent "Dutch Ambassador for The Carrot Project!"

A Single Carrot, Freshly Observed

I've let the blogging slide a bit over the past few days. 

I've been coughing.  I've been in New York.  I've been happily slammed by the flood of relatives rushing in for winter vacation.  I've been inarticulately raving in my head about profit as an illusion.  I've been asked where I'd fit into a world in which all businesses already operate sustainably.  I've been listening to Cake.

And I've been keeping up an email correspondence that just revealed this link.

If you didn't catch it the first time, click again; watch closely; and read quickly.

No Big Shots In Reality Y'all

The Carrot Project has me too excited to sleep much at night, and I'm starting to feel that ominous scratchy in the back of my throat, so I decided I needed a nap.

As I was settling into the couch, I remembered a Facebook status message from a couple of weeks ago:

Martha Blake is taking a loud music nap.

I took those at boarding school all the time. In CT's reclining dentist chair.

Bob Dylan Desire.
Beck Odelay.
The Temptations.
Let It Be.
Rusted Root.
Phish Billy Breathes.
Tupac.

Damn. Those were some great naps.

But I decided for low volume today, and, in honor of Martha, I fell asleep to Langhorne Slim.

Then I dreamt like crazy, stirred after every little episode, told myself to remember, forgot everything, and woke up 30 minutes later to Lauryn Hill philosophy.
