Norfolk zoo's 'free hour' tradition will soon end

I was sadly dismayed when my man and our kids went to the zoo a few Sundays back only to be told..."City Council has voted to stop the free hour at the Zoo."

Really, after 30 years?

I found this article...

I will be constructing a letter to city council. I just need to chew on it for awhile.

I love words

the List

from Stefan Sagmeister: Yes, design can make you happy

Great talk, and interesting list. I'm working on my own.

Complaining is silly. Either act or forget.
Thinking life will be better in the future is stupid. I have to live now.
Being not truthful works against me.
Helping other people helps me.
Organizing a charity group is surprisingly easy.
Everything I do always comes back to me.
Drugs feel great in the beginning and become a drag later on.
Over time I get used to everything and start taking it for granted.
Money does not make me happy.
Traveling alone is helpful for a new persepctive on life.
Assuming is stifling
Keeping a diary supports my personal development.
Trying to look good limits my life.
Worrying solves nothing.
Material luxuries are best enjoyed in small doses.
Having guts always works out for me.
