And this is true, by the way. I only heard from one person all day who didn't like the fair and she was a colorectal surgeon at a local hospital. That's not to say that others didn't enjoy themselves. She was just the only one that I actually spoke with who admitted as much to me... Which, by the way, I thought was cool. I like knowing that not everyone likes what we think is interesting.

And, as long as we're talking about the Shadow, I should mention here that, according to my friend Molly, who spent 12 hours taking erotic photos of people's feet for her own pleasure, she never said, "Feet are interesting, I love mine," as was reported in the "Ann Arbor News." Everything else in the article, however, was true. There were monsters and giant, pooping cats.

What is wrong with you people?

Hi Mark! I've been reading your blog for about a month and a half now since moving to downtown Ypsi and I finally got to attend the Shadow Art Fair... you guys did a great job and I loved that I could walk to the Corner Brewery and get my indie craft fix, especially since the Detroit Urban Craft Fair is only happening once this year. I briefly stopped at your booth and talked to you about the Drew Barrymore poster.

It was inspiring to see all the creative stuff people come up with and I left saying to my boyfriend, "I wish I could be that creative and make cool things!"

I'm looking forward to the next Shadow Art Fair!

I've worked with women in the industry that have asses like that.

I mean distended, not furry.

I'd like to add that I though the fair was great also. There was so much more than I had expected. I was on my way to see batman, but I thought I'd stop in for a look. I ended up staying the rest of the night.
The art was all fantastic, and the beer was good too. I might have to spend more time at the corner brewery.

Also Mark, it was good to meet you. I did send my resume to Amy at Spark, and she got back to with some helpful advice.
I spent some time thinking of a business to start with the spark resources, and I decided ypsilanti should have a furniture/houseware company. Kinda like IKEA, but American. With indy crafters doing design. The motor wheel plant might be a good place for it.

I'd read that people lived inside of animals, but I didn't think that it was true.
