Senses working overtime #119

1 Just do it



Great piece from the gifted Thomas Oppong about action! Do it! Make the great leap forward. Okay, you could start by just reading about it I guess. Here it is. Read it! Now! What are you waiting for?

2 Celebrating Len



Best thing I read this week - an obit for Len Herzstein. A Giants 'balldude', a regular joe, who lived well and has died age 93. 

3 Lame Donald duck



Excellent piece about Donald Trump's  lame duckhood.

4 Greatest albums by women



Excellent run down of some outstanding music. How many do you own/have listened to?

Senses working overtime #46

1 San Francisco

Like a lot of people I lost my heart to San Francisco. My eldest daughter is one lucky bunny - she gets to live and work there. 

These photographs reek of love!

2 Best film Oscar for 2017 goes to...
Great article about film and NEXT YEAR'S Academy Awards

3 Don't worry, be happy
TED talks - everybody loves them. I'm working my way through these ten so that I can feel better.

4 Scott Kelly



His photographs from the space station are gobsmackingly amazing.

5 Zootropia
This one from Disney should be as cool as um as er Magnificent Mr Fox (took a while but I knew it was in there somewhere). Here's the promo.

Overtime
I'm loving this interactive graph about when people marry in the US. Fascinating to compare education and ethnic groups.

I'm a fan of George Clooney. Here's a cool puff piece on him from the Guardian.
