This world is filled with one thing after another.\u00a0 The good, the bad, and yes, even the butt-ugly.\u00a0 And I notice, dag nab it.<\/p>\n

Here are some things I have reckoned upon.<\/p>\n

The Good.\u00a0 The Beautiful.\u00a0 As you very well know\u2026.there are some crazy-good-talented people out there.\u00a0 Some of them are so incredibly creative, it just astounds me.\u00a0 Yesterday, I was watching Sunday Morning on CBS.\u00a0\u00a0 One of the stories was about an artist named Johannes Stoetter.\u00a0 He sounds like he might be from Germany, with the peanut-butter-thick accent.<\/p>\n

At any rate, he is about as creative as they get.\u00a0 He creates this camouflage-people art. For instance, he makes people disappear in his photos, with bananas, or feathers.\u00a0 There are photos of frogs, and lizards, and birds, and on\u2026 but it is really a person or people.\u00a0 It was amazing.<\/p>\n

But here is the deal.\u00a0 The reporter asked him, what the heck he could possibly do next?\u00a0 And he deftly responded\u2026 \u201cI want to create hotdogs which\u2026.\u201d<\/p>\n

WHAT?\u00a0 HOTDOGS?\u00a0 What is this guy talking about?\u00a0 Like what in the world could he possibly do with hot dogs?\u00a0 I didn\u2019t hear one more word of that interview.\u00a0 I just kept thinking\u2026.. Hot Dogs????\u00a0 That is a step in the wrong direction Johannes.\u00a0 I can see that from sitting here.<\/p>\n

The rest of the day it bugged me. Off and on.\u00a0 Hot Dogs?\u00a0 I am always trying to figure out what make those creative-types tick.\u00a0\u00a0 Was he related to Oscar Meyer?\u00a0 Or was he starting from scratch\u2026 and switching careers to be a Pig Farmer?<\/p>\n

Last night\u2026 I still thought\u2026 Hot Dogs?
\nMaybe he is going to open an Alaskan Husky Breeding Farm at the Equator\u2026 and create Hot Dogs.\u00a0 Or\u2026 did he land a job as a Food Vendor at Fenway Park?\u00a0 So today, I had to ferret out the video online.\u00a0 I listed to it again and again.\u00a0 Finally, I figured out he wasn\u2019t saying \u201chotdogs\u201d at all.\u00a0 He said \u201cartworks\u201d in his very dense accent.<\/p>\n

And there you have it\u2026 Ye\u2019 Of Little Hearing.\u00a0 HE said ARTWORKS.\u00a0 So\u2026 \u2026. busy brain of mind\u2026. never mind about the hotdogs.<\/p>\n

Sometimes\u2026 I just have to shake my head at myself.\u00a0 At any rate\u2026.<\/p>\n

Guess what we are having for dinner tonight.<\/p>\n

I am pretty sure she said Hat Bogs.\u00a0 Or maybe it was Cat Clogs on Buns with mustard and latched up.\u00a0 Or something\u2026.<\/p>\n

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.\u00a0 —\u00a0 <\/span>Scott Adams<\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
