    seriously... i'm starting to have dreams of being eaten alive by chris brogan. or perhaps just chewed on. it's a bit scary. :)
    also, olives are gross. especially green ones. what the heck is a pimento anyway?
    hey, guess who's coming to nyc? it will completely brokify me, but i think it will be fun and totally worth it.
    see you next friday!

    As I mentioned in some of my emails to you, I have been doing almost all of my creative stuff collaboratively for several years. I am 100% in support of this approach. Everything from making music to decorating my house for Halloween goes better with other people.

    In defense of going solo, however, I have found that my recent change in musical circumstance has led to a newfound love for going it alone. I'm setting up a studio and writing stuff I didn't know I had in me. It's been great. There's a lot to be said for running the whole show yourself.

    Which is not to say that whatever I produce couldn't then be turned over to outside parties with inspiring results.

    speed matters
    when ideas start going
    they explode
    brains bouncing really fast is cool

    if you wait a day to join in
    or even an hour these days
    pffftt
    it's past

    it illiminates the
    "gosh i'd do it, but i have to really think about it first."
    "Man i'm kinda busy but let me write that down."
    with fun creative bouncing
    it's like a wave at the game
    get up on the crest
    otherwise
    when you get up later
    well
    you'll be a dork with his arms in the air.

    creative bouncing
    get your pogo

    That just made me miss writing groups.

    The most fun I ever have is when I am creating something with other people. One person alone can create great things, of course. But two or more heads together make magic.
