St. Patty's Day 2010 -

Carl was standing on the western shore of the Arkansas river on the south side of Tulsa, OK. The smell of the mud was as pulchritudinous as Wombat Divine. To the south-east, across the river, he could see CityPlex Towers. Oral Robert's University had some of the most amazing Futuristic architecture in the country. Tulsa itself had one of the largest concentrations of Art Deco architecture in the country. It was a beautiful spring day. Ducks were swimming in the eddies.
Carl pulled out a notebook and a pencil and began to make a list.

1. Write a concise book on the legal history of obscenity.
2. Produce a series of ceramic vessels - glaze being photographic transfer - depictions of porno film reels.
3. Annapurna.
4. Get at least one piece of work into the Delta Exhibit.
5. Win Best of Show in the Delta Exhibit. (not necessarily the same piece as in #4.)
6. Learn how to play skat and win at least $100 in a single hand.
7. Finish at least one script and film it, including one scene of each: euchre, chess, backgammon, pool, tribbing.
8. Paint at least one proper watercolor of the Mississippi, the Arkansas, a rice field, a cotton field, and a hot bitch's portrait.
9. Win the lottery.

Carl leaned back against the rocks and looked out over the water. He let his eyes glaze over as he felt the sun on his fur. He was in an excellently positive mood. The gulls above squacked as they flew upstream to the waste-water treatment facility.
Viva Marmota Monax.
