Orange Crate Art at fifteen

Orange Crate Art turns fifteen today. It’s applying for a learner’s permit tomorrow. Wish us luck.

Writing every day, or nearly every day, is a great pleasure to me, whatever the fortunes of “the blogosphere,” whatever the number of hits per post. For me, keeping a blog is a way of fostering a habit of attention, which means fostering a habit of learning, permit or no permit.

Thank you for reading.

  8. Thanks, Sean and Stefan.

    Loiterers are welcome here, as areo flâneurs.

    About college: my scheme to pass as one of Felicity Huffman’s lesser-known children has hit a snag.

  10. Happy Birthday, Orange Crate Art!

    I googled Famous 2004 Births:
    OCA is the same age as the girl who plays Eleven on "Stranger Things."

    P.S. Your bloggery inspires me to keep blogging too, so thanks for that, as well as all the good reading.

  11. Thanks, Toronto. Thanks, Fresca.

    I just looked at one of those lists, and I’m not surprised that Millie Bobby Brown is the only name I recognize. By the way, I think Hopper is alive. :)

  15. Thanks, Mike. Thanks, Chris. And thanks, Stephen.

    So Fresca, you, too, think Hopper is alive? I can’t imagine they’d pass up the chance to have Eleven “see” him in Russia and somehow get him out.

  16. I think Hopper is "dead" like Spock in "Wrath of Khan" and Han Solo in "Return of the Jedi".
    That is, not dead.
