Day two is a Sunday this year.
I can remember as a kid using the distress call : MAYDAY, MAYDAY, MAYDAY to get help when our strategy games may have gone wrong.
Understanding MAYDAY
Read MoreMayday is an emergency code word used internationally as a distress signal in voice procedure radio communications. It derives from the French venez m’aider, meaning “come (and) help me”. It is used to signal a life-threatening emergency by many groups, such as police forces, pilots, firefighters, and transportation organizations. The call is always given three times in a row (“mayday-mayday-mayday”) to prevent mistaking it for some similar-sounding phrase under noisy conditions and to distinguish an actual mayday call from a message about a mayday call.

The first day of my birthday month began slowly. A bit creaky, waking from a late night to meet a deadline. A quiet beginning.
May day many meanings…
May Day occurs on May 1st and refers to several public holidays. In many countries, May Day is synonymous with International Workers’ Day, or Labour Day, a day of political demonstrations and celebrations organised by unions and other groups. May Day is also a traditional holiday in many cultures.

I’ve always enjoyed the fact that the first day of my month celebrated labor. BTW, the earliest May Day celebrations appeared in pre-Christian times, with the festival of Flora, the Roman Goddess of flowers.

What kind of drawing and painting tools are available for artists in a digital space? I don’t know. Because sometimes I actually am under a rock. Why didn’t I know about this cool app so I could vote for it in the Webby’s? Sometimes you just miss cool stuff until most people think it’s old and tired. Well, It’s new to me. Here is a cool app where you can get your inner Pollock out.
I spent hours playing with this software toy. You probably will too.

Came downtown today to catch up on some work. I fell behind in April because of the flu. We romped into town for breakfast. A awesome day the studio! Broke through several thorny design and development issues. Before we knew it it almost midnight. Time for a second breakfast. Baked eggs for the first breakfast, blueberry pancakes for the second.
