There’s a lot of stuff I share on the Internet every day. Here’s a round up of the things I most enjoyed last week by category.
Inspiration
- Recalling Maya Angelou’s love of cooking. “What I do recall is the preparation. Her cooking was a virtuoso presentation that was part monologue, part dance routine, totally engaging and absolutely fascinating. There was a snippet of a song from a musical comedy at one point, a twist and a boogie at another and a flourish or two as a spice was added. It was a whole new form of dinner theater: a bravura performance calculated to astonish and delight. I was captivated, and from then on remained in her thrall.” Is there anything this person could not do? The ultimate inspiration.
- Why you should travel. Thirty two reasons you should travel. There are a 100 more but this is an excellent start.
- Biz Stone favorited two of my tweets. It all happened while I slept and when I awoke, I squealed. I love the Internets.
Nifty
- Students hire mariachi band to follow principal around all day for senior prank. It’s as epic as it sounds.
- 18 Fake Twitter accounts proving phony is funny. “A spot-on parody of superstar Tom Hanks, featuring the image of Jim Carrey and the grammatical abilities of a three-year-old. ‘hmm fealings are free so why not have the best ones u can? have a grate day im tom hank ~ @TomHankThatsMe‘”
- Coolest stay-at-home dad ever. He’s not the coolest ever, but these photos are precious. I still think the coolest ever is Looky Daddy.
Music
- Gabriel Knight Hancock. I feel a little terrible I haven’t shared him yet. Gabriel opened for an artist in Sheri’s Living Room several months ago and I can’t get his voice out of my head. This is his most recent album and you’ll be impressed with not only his sound, but his skill. A songwriter to watch, for sure.
- I Will Do the Breathing by Matt the Electrician.
