The Gossip
The Project I am going to make a book. I will publish it. Name to be determined. The Project is to archive the people who captured the visual essence of life.
What you will send me: A black and white self portrait & the photograph that captures your style (make sure they both are your favorite because remember it's going to be published) And the most important piece I wil need is this answered: What are the 10 things you hope to attain in your lifetime. (Each one should be one line) This is a question that most of us don't think of. Most of us get caught up in the doldrums of daily life and forget to seek out the larger picture. At some point we have to see the end of the road and recognize what we ultimately want attain in this life. I then hope you will start to cross things off your list!
Send me these things: your first and last name, state you live in, your URL and company name.
Maybe there will be one book maybe 100 and you never know who else will be behind this. Important note- This is your list of what YOU would like to attain.
kailee@bludomain.com
Wow !!!! Hundreds of people sent me their images and lists. This is

Kailee's Gossip
. You may remember wearing jellies when you were little, the shoes that made your feet incredibly sweaty. Some of you may have made those 99 cents horrible looking shoes look like a million bucks! Well guess what is back this season?
I say "Please say n
o!"
If you say "yes" then check out www.stuartweitzman.com and www.zappos.com and www.onyourfeet.com and www.marcjacobs.com
. I have been searching for a swim suit that would flaunt my curves ( ha ha) and not reveal too much. Truth is I have very small curves. This summer bold prints, retro styles and bold colors are the rage. I personally love this yellow polka dot bikini. Need a suit? www.instyleswimwear.com
. what I need.... a man with confidence. He must be an outdoorsy type and rugged. I also like a man that sports a stylish casual look. A man who lives in tees.
Check out www.modernamusement.com
. love Grail, Affliction, Salvage, Ed Hardy, Obey, Black Hearts Brigade, and Libertalia
. I heart architect, Ramon Esteve’s, minimalist and comprehensive collection of outdoor furniture. Simplistic and modern. Lots of goodies at www.retromodern.com
. what a great invention! Invented by a man who absoutely hated picking up his dogs poop. Visit www.solutions.com to see how Sha-poopie works. Hiliarious.
. Check out this site www.scrapblog.com
. cameras are the perfect gift for high school and college graduates. the new Casio Exilim EX-Z1200 packs 12 megapixels. No price announced yet but stay tuned. The Casio will deliver high performance and high resolution. www.casio.com
Whoa...DJ's Ten Life Achievements make me feel like less of a person. Like I kick puppies or something ;)

Wooo Hooo! My crazy orage door made it!
But.... who's going to notice with that smokin' bum at the top and Dalai Lama of photographers giving his list. Not even bright orange can take attention away from those two things. ; )
