Office Corner

Somebody's Place

It's not so much the corner office I want. It's the one corner of an office where people collaborate. I want a place at the table, or on the sofa, in the space where creativity explodes.

Ideas dart out from the creative huddle like cartoon arrows. Most are waved away, dismissed as done befores, not quite its, or cool but impossible due to laws of physics and such.

Then somehow, someone hits upon The Idea. It might rise vaguely over the group in the first half hour of discussion. It might come after months of emails, research, and sketches. One of the group members might dream it. But there it is. Now the work begins. Sometimes we'll lead The Idea, and sometimes we'll follow it, to a destination we can only imagine at this point.

Thanksgiving, 2012

"Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all others." --Cicero 

Yes.  

Happy Thanksgiving

Autumn Beauty, 2012

Fall Leaves: The Inside Story

OK, night is taking over. We're dialing down the photosynthesis. Chlorophyll, that means you fade into the sunset, buddy. Take a break. Go be your green self in Palm Springs.

Of course, carotenoids, with chlorophyll fading out, you'll be center stage. Get ready for it. We want stunning yellows and golds and you're the only ones for this job. Shine like the summer sun!

Anthocyanins, get in there with your reds and purples. Should be a good year for you, with those extra sunny days. That sugar stuck in the leaves is all yours.

That's it for now. We'll tell you when to drop. Thanks.
