All I wanted today was a pudding pop. When I don't feel well this always made me feel better as a kid. Who carries them?!? I can't find them anywhere! If you haven't had one, they are the best! OJ & a movie had to do. Really, not at all close. Feeling better though!

Queen of Talk, Oprah Winfrey, has her last show in 4 days, ending on May 25th, 2011. I can't remember a time when she hasn't been on TV. She has inspired many. So, with an homage and fairwell, I've decided to list a few of my favorite things!
Thanks Oprah!
Mountain Valley Spring Water (the Best!- ask past Presidents!)
Palm Trees
Cashews
Roller Coasters (everywhere)
The Fjord Chair by Patricia Urquiola
My Dog, Rex Maddox, Toy Fox Terrier
White Water Rafting
Chinese Take Out
the Passion flower
"Garden of Earthly Delights" (c. 1480-1505) by Hieronymus Bosch
(Original @ the Prado in Madrid, Spain)
The Harpsichord (can't play- love the sound)
Minimalism in various forms of art and design, where the work is stripped down to its most fundamental features.

My brother told me that the USA goes into default on it's loans today. But Congress considers raising the debt limit so we can barrow more.
Otherwise, as an overcast Monday casts shadows on my Spring spirits, I look forward to summer at a lake cabin on the Fourth of July! It has me

I strongly recommend 3 important movies to watch in order to better understand our world today which has been shaped in the last decade 2001-20011. These 3 movies, which outline stages of the decade in said order, combined will help anyone better understand American culture and it's domineering presence of its political powers.
Not to be confused with conspiracy theories nor lack of patriotism on my part. These movies are presented primarily by documenting information which seems most confidently, based on fact. I am much more educated knowing the information presented in these 3 movies and prepared to take on the future.
They are (best watched in order of appearance);
1. 911 In Plane Site
2. Fair Game
3. Inside Job
3 significant points from 'Inside Job':
1. Alan Greenspan
2. Deregulation
3. Collateralized Debt Obligations (CDO's)

For the past few weekends I've attended some fun events in the LA area relating to furniture and design. None of which I have attended before.
Starting with the Los Angeles Antiques Show 2011.
I found a great many pieces with a wide range from ancient chinese to cartier and other fantastic finds from around the world.

Second, was the Los Angeles Modernism Show 2011.
Here, there was a good assortment of mid-century modern pieces from the likes of Paul McCobb and Eames (of course).

Finally, the Rose Bowl Flea Market, the most relaxed environment to shop!

Anywhere from junk to treasure hunt finds and everything in between. This is what I scored for less than full asking price! A Bronze sculpture/trophy and silver bowl;
