I’ve always been interested in the source of creativity and how it works.  “Sleeping” on a problem has frequently worked for me too.

Dancing Pigeons – Ritalin from Blink.

This song was inspired by a recent event on a Jet Blue airline where a male flight attendant got fed up with the actions of a passenger and cursed out the passenger over the intercom system and then activated the inflatable emergency slide and exited the plane.

According to the New York Times article:

Mr. Slater got on the plane’s public address system and cursed out the passenger. Then he activated the inflatable evacuation slide at service exit R1; launched himself off the plane, an Embraer 190; ran to the employee parking lot; and left the airport in a car he had parked there.

I’m not sure if this guy is a hero, a wacko or a criminal, but it sure makes for an interesting news article.

It takes balls to snap a photo like this one, don’t you think?

Hope you all have a good weekend.

Cameron: “The 1961 Ferrari 250GT California. Less than a hundred were made. My father spent three years restoring this car. It is his love, it is his passion.”

Ferris: “It is his fault he didn’t lock the garage.”

According to a recent Wall Street Journal blog post:

The number of Amish in North America has doubled since 1991 and their distinctive communities can now be found in Canada as well as 28 U.S. states, including unlikely ones like Texas and Maine.

The full article has an interesting chart with Amish population by state.
