This is what’s called thinking outside the box. I know of someone who has started a store (brick and Mortar) by selling store returns from Wal-mart, K-mart, and Target. Some of the items are damaged but can be repaired. He buys items by the pallet from these stores and resells them. No body else is doing this in this area and he makes a good living doing this.

[...] Mark Twain, Ernest Hemingway, Stephen King and Aristotle received the attention they rightly deserve, and Plato and Prince did OK as well. Owen Wilson received a luke-warm reception, and Cameron Diaz got what she had coming. [...]

Oh and Tipper is an uptight prude. 2 Live Crew was much worse than Darling Nikki – and Nickelodeon compared to the faux-porn pop/hop that passes for art today.

If I ever have a strip club, Darling Nikki will be a staple. The way that song starts is so funky-hot-horny. My other favorite Prince bass line has to be Gett Off. And that reminds me of something James used to say…

Get outta my head!

Prince has always been on my list of ‘creative heroes’ because he is always in the studio producing. Bad songs, good songs, great songs… he is always experimenting and always producing. And I love his singular vision for the same reason I love Hitchcock, Reznor, etc.

[...] I have everything the way I want, except I will be making the header fade move over to the right enough to cover the third column. I will be brainstorming some ideas to make my blog fresh.

I’ve said this before, but I love your combining the arts with principles of blogging. Thanks!

About something new—that’s so true. We stumbled upon a new way to drive traffic to blogs (we created a central hub to entertainingly list contests hosted by bloggers) and it’s simply exploding.

In just four weeks we’ve been interviewed twice, once for a book, once for a website, was contacted by NBC Universal, approved by blogads, have people linking to our site every day plus lots of excitement from the blogging community.

Yea for new!
