And who is this?

And here's another of my favorite 23s.
I didn't realize that he had the number 23 until one of my youngest readers mentioned it after he saw my picture of the Wizard.
Galaxy, Wizards.
Seems quite cosmic!

Who's this?



Here's one of my favorite 23s.
Searched & found this on Flickr. Had to create a new account, jump back & forth to Yahoo, Blogger & Flickr & back again.
It took a lot of patience and energy.
Whew.

Thing 2

I sort of lost track of what I was doing with 23 Things, so this and the previous post took me about 2 hours, but over several days, to put into the blog you are reading. Plus I took about 30 more minutes to create Ms. Kathie, who is obviously a figment of my imagination. Why don't they have more zaftig body types? On the other hand, she seems to be much nicer than the scary Ms. Dewey, played by Janina Gavankar whom I watched in somewhat amused and horrified fascination.

Thing 1

Lifelong learning & the art of learning what you like
(ce que vous aimez/circus amaze)

ce que j'aime (these things are in my toolbox):
stories
games & puzzles
cool stuff

ce que je n'aime pas:
deadlines (except that they are so useful for getting things done)
long explanations (foot-tapping; beginning to daydream...)
clunky language (badly written technical manuals, for instance)
