OH WOW. OH WOW. OH WOW.
I read the Mona Simpson’s Eulogy for Steve Jobs on the NYT this morning. Once in a while there is a truly moving piece. This was one of them. Read it at www.NYT.com
Fashion is what seems beautiful now but looks ugly later; art can be ugly at first but it becomes beautiful later.

This is a little excerpt from 10 things by Milton Glaser. The 10 Things are worth reading. Yes, the post is worth reading. Click the link below the rabbit story. And post a comment. Let me know what you think.
A butcher was opening his market one morning and as he did a rabbit popped his head through the door. The butcher was surprised when the rabbit inquired ‘Got any cabbage?’ The butcher said ‘This is a meat market – we sell meat, not vegetables.’ The rabbit hopped off. The next day the butcher is opening the shop and sure enough the rabbit pops his head round and says ‘You got any cabbage?’ The butcher now irritated says ‘Listen you little rodent I told you yesterday we sell meat, we do not sell vegetables and the next time you come here I am going to grab you by the throat and nail those floppy ears to the floor.’ The rabbit disappeared hastily and nothing happened for a week. Then one morning the rabbit popped his head around the corner and said ‘Got any nails?’ The butcher said ‘No.’ The rabbit said ‘Ok. Got any cabbage?’
