teasing and whimsy
Scorpio Horoscope for week of August 4, 2005
John Madden was a successful pro football coach who understood the value of taking things both seriously and not very seriously at all. He was a hard-working master of strategy and motivation who drilled his team relentlessly so they'd develop the discipline necessary to excel. But he also understood how critical it was to inject playfulness into the mix, even during high-pressure moments. There was one stretch in the 1970s when he prepared his players for each game with a fierce pep talk, but then refused to let them leave the locker room until running back Mark van Eeghen could summon a belch. I recommend this dual approach to you, Scorpio. As you wade in to your upcoming dates with destiny, draw liberally on the leavening power of teasing and whimsy. ROB BREZNY
RANDOM FACT ABOUT ME: i do not own a cell phone. i do not even know how to use a cell phone. i rarely call people who own cell phones, but rather leave them messages on their land lines. this fact about me drives many people crazy.

It sounds as though you are being unusually cruel in this age of mass communication - good for you. I hate that people expect you to answer your cell phone every time it rings as though the very presence of it determines your availability.
I’m currently plodding through the mundane job of production work involved with my latest project and the phone won’t stop ringing with last minute requests, arghh. I don’t want sex pity I want production pity.
Are you currently working? Are you interested in any design work? Are these inappropriate questions for this forum? Are there too many Ares?

i just finished a big contract, and am taking a tiny hiatus from larger projects. just did a few ads this morning though. what i REALLY need to do is work on branding myself. i need a new web page, and i think i am going to pay someone else to do it. any ideas on that one?
as for future work, i am moving cities, and will very much be looking for new contracts in the fairly near future. hard to be terribly specific in this forum...

interesting. i thought you might be someone that i knew, who lives in vancouver. i have a little tracker on here, and, creepily enough, i can tell what cities people in general are coming from, but not in a way that attaches a specific name to a specific person. vancouver comes up often, but never victoria.
well, on the design front, do you have a web page i might have a look at? not in a judgemental way, of course.
