I'm an artist, educator, militant anti-theist , and I write. I gamble on just about anything. And I like beer...but I love my wife. This blog contains observations from a funny old man who gets pissed off every once in a while.

Ememen is an artist in Lyon, France who repairs damaged sidewalks with beautiful mosaic tiles.

I once created a huge mosaic of people laying on the beach and the towels all had a different pattern like that.

Note: I would love to show you a picture of that mosaic but back then I only took slides. I have thousands and thousands of slides and very few photographs. One day I want to get a converter but that will have to wait.
