ah this sucks man, but ultimately it's what outdoor sports are about: you versus the elements. Sometimes that means sitting on flat waves waiting for surf or waiting proper snow. It's all a part of proving

Beautiful piece, but I love this Picasso line on 'finishing': "To finish a work? To finish a picture? What nonsense! To finish it means to be through with it, to kill it, to rid it of its soul, to

I'm a European who follows American sports and I think it's very US-centric to say modern sport is geared towards big stars. Around the rest of the world football, ruby and just about everything else is

Upvoted, but as someone who has worked as a writer in various senses for the best part of a decade I can tell you number three is laughably untrue. Really, who do you think makes a good income from writing?

Nice post, I've upped :) It's fascinating the idea of what to do with North Korea if the leadership can be overthrown/forced to step down etc. The South Korean government has an entire ministry dedicated

I'm really growing to appreciate traditional Japanese art but I would like to know much more about it! Who created it? When? What does it mean to you? I've upvoted and followed, love to know more about

I love the Vonnegut! I just rereading Breakfast of Champions which ends with his self portrait but your drawing's probably better haha

I love this! The using the books slightly reminds me of Jasper Johns use of newspapers. Have upped, resteemed and followed! Inspiring work.

I need to get around to him for sure. I love trying to pair my reading with the country I'm in.

Thanks for reading, but I think my iPhone pics have a lot left to be desired!

Love this novel! Especially the giant talking cat.

An amazing art work. Is Raphael the guy on the vary far right looking out directly at the viewer?

Not too bad a movie, my favourite thing about it is David Cross (Tobias in Arrested Development) plays Ginsberg's father in it having previously played Ginsberg himself in I'm Not There (an amazing movie
