   Yeah , it was Joe, but everyone came early. So I moved it up again. Think it’s too early now?

   Yeah, I was afraid of that. I hope we see some new faces tonight. Jeremy wasn’t sure he could get the plug-in running this week — because of the server move and his traveling, but we WILL have it for sure next week.

   JUST DON”T LET THINGS GO TOO FAR BACK STAGE HERE.

   Another great topic is one thousand paintings : http://www.onethousandpaintings.com/home/

   I can’t believe how they’re starting to see like crazy! They were on Seth Godin’s blog and then Brian Clark’s. I am so tempted to buy a number - it’s just weird!

   Hi Ann,
   I saw that on Brian’s blog too.
   Think we should buy one? They don’t look very pretty. I con’t imagine they’ll go up in value.

   Looks like the comment mic is going to open up early again.

   I just bought 150 - to remind me that if I ever work for a company again it can’t be any bigger than 150 people. When 151 gets hired - I’m outta there!

    OK, I don’t get the 1000 paintings and I actually do think that modern art has redeeming value.

    What did I do this weekend; I wrote about NASCAR god Richard Petty’s comments that women can’t be real racers. For my pains I was called an “idiot” by one guy.

    I like sportswriting!!

    If you wanna mix it up in the topic, here’s the link (I’ve had a Jack & Coke so don’t make me do HTML:)

    Sheila - interesting string - sounds like some people in that audience are overcompensating (I won’t say for what in order to keep Liz’s blog G rated!)

    The thing I get about the 1,000 paintings deal is that it’s sheer BRILLIANCE. But alas, I will not buy one.

    Hi Sheila.

    We are always in a hurry. Keep calm, relax and take it easy. Just get your very personal minute. A Swiss artist is selling each minute cut by hand. There are 1440 different minutes a day. A perfect piece of art.
    I just bought 21:15 All I can say is, have a look for it, you will like it.

    Hi Stroich,
    Welcome.
    What an interesting place you chose to put this. . . . I actually have mixed feelings about this sort of thing.
