I recently started reading a book by Jiddu Krishnamurti, entitled Freedom From The Known.
It’s a really good book that talks in depth about freeing yourself from pre-conditioning/programming that parents and society provides.
I’d recommend it to anyone looking for freedom from negative/useless conditioning.
It gave me inspiration to create the piece below, it will have it’s own unique meaning to each person who views it.

A lot of you have been stumbling onto my page by looking for the age old question:
“Who came first, the Travelocity Gnome, or the Gnome in the movie Amalie?”

Look no further as I have the answer!

The movie Amelie was released in 2001, while the Travelocity Where’s my gnome? commercials started in 2004.
The Travelocity gnome was inspired by a really cool prank.

Also…
As a child I remember watching The World of David The Gnome on Nickelodeon, which was actually a Spanish cartoon brought to the U.S. in 1987, the foul year of my birth.

My first post here should start off with a BaNG! Right?(in a matter of speaking) and in keeping with the times, I thought it would be appropriate to begin with a topic that is likely on everyone’s mind…The Economy…

Here is my solution to this limpy problem:

Batteries Required!

Batteries Required!

Now…how much for that Senate seat?
