That was one of my favorites in the L9th.
I like the Viking ship thing out of driftwood on St. Claude too.
There's a beautiful garden in Lakeview that's part of Aorta (not P1) that is totally worth seeing. It's appointment only now, but worth the bother. At least I thought so.
And the blinky star things in the old school on St. Claude are cool too. I say don't bother with the stuff at NOCCA, it was not particularly interesting.

Can you tell I've been to too many of these things already?

Hey, missed ya lady. I'll take any pointers I can get; my free time is pretty limited these days. Never taking six in a semester again. Evah!

How you been holding up at the end here?

Well I haven't been to the CAC yet but I hear they've got cool ones there. I'm planning on finding the time at some point.

Eh, there are pros and cons to only being on line. I'm avoiding writing my term paper with impressive vigor.
I really need to knock that off though.
Next semester I'll end up back on stinkin' campus. Can't take science or art classes on line apparently. Cocksuckers.

Yeah the labs would be tough to pull off at home, for a grade anyway. The art thing doesn't make too much sense when there are sites like fotki where you could display your work to your profs though.

My handy map says there are lots of sites up and down and around Julia St., so that was going to be one of my next jaunts. Wanna celebrate and go post exams?

I am way overdue to get out for some art exhibits. The picture is awesome.
