"The rabbit is bleeding because a car hit it."

I love the idea of Visual Languages for communication,
but this isn't exactly "See Spot run!"

My beef? I don't know where to start reading these pictograms and am frequently wrong when I try it "Blind" ... not knowing the sentence beforehand. I feel that if there is a Subject, it should be the large, central head, with events, feelings and actions surrounding it.

Very cool.

Beautiful.

Made from a ball of mud. No kidding. Instructions are included on the site.

Mossy Dorodango - "What happens when you leave your mud ball in a plastic bag outside for about a month."

BTW - Dorodango is a polished mud ball. Look it up. I made my first two today at the beach. Both ended up breaking, but the second one had a pretty well-defined shell.

It will be interesting to see how pundits spin this. 911 was horrifying. Watching the Bush administration then selfishly use the attacks as an excuse to further their own self-interests was even more horrifying. Detention without cause is a hallmark of totalitarianism, and only one of many abuses of this era.

I'd love to have my kids meet any president in person. Kids benefit any time they see "important" people in the flesh.
