guacamole. it's not as easy as it looks. have you seen this ad? the one for the new carl's junior guacamole bacon six dollar burger? a guy gets an avocado out of the refrigerator and attempts to make guacamole (you knew guacamole came from avocadoes right? right?) by putting the avocado in a blender. the avocado bounces uncut in the cylinder and the tag line comes up. "guacamole. it's not as easy as it looks." hilarious man. hilarious.



so i'm trying to write an article for tien and victor's web thing. my article is supposed to be about babbs. about his work, about him, about something. but the problem is i'm having a terrible time getting started. i want to do something good. i want to do something that reveals a part of him, that reflects his work. and i want it to be good. oh wait, i said that already. but anyway, i've decided that attempting to write something about someone you know is extremely hard. because you already know them, those initial impression feelings are gone, they've been replaced by memories and opinions. it would be so much easier to just interview some random person. because then everything you feel in that encounter can be noted and written about.



but in the case of trying to write about a good friend of yours, it's difficult. i don't want to have an interview with him that's just straight forward and relatively boring. or maybe it should be that way, so that i can't mess up. but i would like to engage the reader as well as highlight some aspect of the artist. so basically i'm blogging instead of brainstorming. that's been proven to solve many a problem. blogging. it's as easy as it looks.
