ASK ME ANYTHING.

Stephen Colbert interviews Maurice Sendak [part one] [part two]

God, I’m still laughing at this.

Sendak: “Fuck them, I hate those e-books. They cannot be the future. They may well be, I will be dead, I won‘t give a shit.”

Colbert: “Boys wear pants.” Sendak: “Not when they’re dreaming!”

Colbert: “Will you teach me to draw?” Maurice Sendak: “No!”

I haven’t seen something this delightful in quite some time. Just absolutely amazing.

the MARTINI SHAKER IS DEAD. LONG LIVE the ROCKS GLASS.

the ROCKS GLASS is one of those fancy-schmancy Tumblr sites that happens to be curated by Kansas City-based creative generalist Jeremy Fuksa.

“Creative generalist” sounds like an aggrandized term. It is. But, it rolls off the tongue much easier than Designer, Developer, Writer, Broadcaster, Filmmaker, Speaker, Musician, Photographer and Attention Whore. Plus, it looks way cooler on a business card.

The author wishes to acknowledge that there are bare wires laying about. Please take care not to trip on them.
