what? its not so crazy...i mean who the heck would have imagined that that we could fly in the first place? Or that we could actually go to space? or invent a computer that was a phone too? I mean really...who the heck thought of this stuff? So we have proof that anything is possible these days...an African American President, bikes with 21 speeds not just 10, cars that run on electricity...whoa...electricity? think about that one...someone thought up and figured out how to harness electricity...how many light bulbs have you screwed in during your life and never thought about that one? I know I don't think about it. Or matches? or Bounce dryer sheets...(love it), or shovels...Leaf blowers...loud, yes, but a heck of alot faster than a rake..I think today I will try and notice all the things that without, our lives would be vastly different..not worse, or better or easier or harder, just different...
I am sure for every one thing invented there are 1000 items that didn't quite make the grade..like my flying tractor here..one, the propeller is a bit small and two, well, it could use some wings..but they were thinking outside of the box at least...why we would use a flying tractor i haven't quite figured out yet.
My point this morning is that as an artist, we may be inventing 1000 pieces of work before one of them gets noticed, or bought, or put in a show, or even appreciated...Van Gogh sold one painting 7 years into his 10 year painting career...one...and he is Van Gogh...
so i say, keep trying to get tractors to fly..because strange things happen, and when someone says, "yeah, when monkeys fly out of my butt", stand back and have some bananas ready, because they just might be in for a surprise....Now when pigs start flying, we may want to be a bit more careful.
Love and Understanding.
Originally this was about my Escape...but these days, this is about the way of the world..the things that cross my mind, and maybe yours..the creative battles and truimphs and losses...it is about love and understanding of ourselves first and others second...it is about doing what we love and being afraid to try...and then trying...I am blessed with the readers on this blog and my family and loves and my friends....thank you..

We have flying tractors, they're called crop dusters!
I saw an article the other day about these low-yield nuclear reactors that power up to 20,000 homes for 50 years. They're really similar to the reactors that power submarines. And because they're permanently sealed, so you can't goof 'em up and they never need maintenance. Imagine putting those where we have gas stations. It would remove the biggest barrier to the inconvenience of electric cars.
