  • Dog Art Today’s New Photo Album: Enter Your Dog + Win a Mug!

    Photo_album copy

    In September 2008, I ran a contest
    asking readers to finish this sentence: "My dog is chicken soup for the
    soul because…" The winner was Linda Belthius whose response included,
    "Because I have been blessed beyond my understanding with having
    [Winnie] to help me through a loss of my dear sister-in-law….She is
    an angel with fur!"

    This made me think of all the Angels with Fur who inspire my
    readers, and how I'd like to meet them.  So, I set up this photo album.  If you
    would like to be included, email me
    a photo of your pet (72 dpi) and a few sentences describing him or her.
    Also let me know if you would like me to link to your website.

    I will have a random drawing of all the dogs and the winner will recieve a large mug from my CafePress store.  Contest ends next Tuesdeay, November 18th at noon.  Good luck!

  • David Byrne’s Bike Racks

    When the NY Department of Transportation asked David Byrne to help judge a competition for new bike racks, he thought up some ideas himself and submitted them.  I'm not sure if that was the end of the competition, but nine David Byrne designed bike racks debuted throughout the city last week.  They will be in place for 364 days.

    Here's a look at all of them:

    Also, debuting last week was David Byrne's new album with Brian Eno, Everything That Happens Will Happen Today, available for download here.
