Google Maps is not always right

Maybe I'll begin calling it Goofle Maps, the typo I just made. Today I found for the second time on my way back east that Google has some Wal-Marts located incorrectly on their map. This time they missed by 10 miles, placing Wal-Mart's Terre Haute store about 5 miles north of I-70 rather than 5 miles south of I-70 which I think is correct. But I don't know for sure - I gave up the search and settled in at the local Cracker Barrel for the night.

Something Useful Can Be Artful

A life, I believe - lived well and openly - with a certain sort of careful attention to form and function - creates art - or, at the very least, inspires it. I believe that art is contained in the ordinary events, that the small things we see and hear and learn everyday provide opportunities to explore parts of ourselves or our society in a way that can actually produce art. Whether it is a story you leave behind or one you take with you, I believe that any given situation is rich with opportunities to participate in the creation of something useful that can also be artful.
