Calgary Art Show

An ambitious and aspiring attempt at arranging artists altogether (who knew I could alliterate? My high school english teacher would be so proud). It takes place this Sunday all under one roof (the future Meals on Wheels home) and is totally accessible since it's free to the public.



For more info, check out their website: www.oneoneoneone.ca

PS. Happy new year and all the best in 2009 to all my friends and family.

Lego Still Playing Well After 50 Years

When I was a kid, my uncle used to give me a Lego Space set for X-mas every year. The toy, which means "Play Well" in Danish, now celebrates 50 years of sparking kids' creativity all over the world.


Then when they licensed Star Wars, I jumped back in as an adult and pretty much got every single set that was related to the original trilogy, except for a few of the big (expensive) ones. The fact that my gf didn't leave me when she saw them all is probably a good sign... Lego has been so much part of our pop culture that even Google commemorated the occasion last week:


PS. Happy Chinese New Year!
