We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
You must really love your job if you go to work when you rule the world.
Rock on, my friend. Rock on and rule the world!
THis is the greatest thing I have ever seen! That is going to be my person list by which to live by!
If the face drawn above number five refers to "Biggie", I'd call Biggie a misnomer.
this is the best list ever. rocking should be on everyones to-do list.
I think the face is in #4 instead, it's a sad face because taking out the trash is clearly something people who rule the world simply don't do.
I agree with Ruth, I think #4 goes with taking out the trash. Rockers who rule the world NEVER take out their own trash. I love that it was found in a "very professional workplace". It would suck to rule the world and still need to have a second job.
this is perfect. Love this list. And, how many of us plan to rule the world, and we stick to those slacker jobs until the opportunity presents itself.
Rex... break a leg.
If his rubbish was eco-friendly then it might not be such a chore. I for one enjoy a trip to the compost pile.
I WROTE A SIMILAR LIST TO THIS WHEN I WAS AN ASPIRING ROCK GOD
The author of this list is a member of the creative class, hiding out in a "very professional" slacker job, stealing copies for show flyers, writing and booking shows for her band when she oughta be entering data or doing some other work.
"Rock" is shorthand for "practice with the band" and "rule the world" is short hand for "write a new draft of your manifesto". She doesn't mind going to work because that's where she gets her free internet access. She does hate taking out the trash because it's symbolic of her connection with consumer capitalism. She wishes she could get access to the roof of her apartment building so she could put in a garden up there and she wouldn't need to buy things and throw out the packaging those things come in.
Biggie is a guy in a band she played with last weekend. He seemed cool, but she's about to find out he's just a hipster and he paid $80 for his jeans.
When will she find the genuine article? Someone who understands the revolution, who puts creation and sustainability at the top of his list of priorities, someone who's draft manifesto fills the gaps in hers?
Thanks Mona.
If any of you live within 100 miles of Milwaukee Wisconsin you owe it to yourself to see Made in the Mouth. it will be life-altering. insurgenttheatre.org
I love this list... I want to know who Biggie is!
...and we see how you turned out SALT.
*Note to self: amend my list to rival SALTs.
good find :)
YEAH, IT'S DIFFICULT TO HIDE MY AURA OF AWESOMENESS
Those sound like some pretty awesome ambitions. Sums up all my personal goals.
I love this find. It could be my very favorite. Good looking out!
Biggie Smalls!
6) leave this somewhere on the floor so that somebody can find it and post it on FOUND
*accomplished*
I thought of Biggie Smalls, too, RC. But, sadly, I think that line is no longer in service.
I think the sad face goes with the garbage task, too. I can't imagine Jon Bon Jovi taking out his own trash.
If you become a rock god, and then you rule the world...maybe, just maybe you will be able to buy the reaper-phone and call Biggie Smalls. BUT! Will you still be able to afford the long distance charges?
Give it up to your boy Biggie Smalls! May he rest in peace!
To Rock, is always at the top of my list.
1. Rock
2. Rule the World
3. Fuck Work
4. Get Drunk
5. Call Booty
I needed to revise it to fit my schedule.
It starts out so grandiose! Then realism sets in. Kind of like most of our lives.
this is perfect; i've made it my desk top. it helps to have your goals right in front of you.
It's one of those lists where you put things on it that you *know* you can cross off, thereby making yourself feel more accomplished. Biggie comes after work, which leads me to believe Biggie is his dealer. Which explains the exclamation point, too! Every rock star needs a good hook-up.
How we all should live
I think this covers just about all the bases...I like how it's all very straight-forward - non- emotional UNTIL...."take out the DAMN trash"
This find rocks.
I like turbo's list better.
I like how it says, "Go to work," as though he/she might forget to go if it's not on the list! : )
Rex, I checked out the Insurgent Theatre sight. sounds really cool. I'll try to check it out.
This to do list is the most amazing!
I'm always creating lists, but at the end of every one I always write: "Lastly, stop making lists!"
*sigh* somehow I still find myself scrawling to-dos in numerical order...
1. Roll
2. drool the word
3. I'm a dork
4. Damn the trash :)
5. small Biggie
Rock on , everyone ! Check out The Dexter Romweber Duo , and Dexter and the New Romans .Dex is a true rockstar .
hey that looks like my to-do lists except for the work part. who needs a job? not me.
6. Check Found for list. :)
Awesome list. "Biggie" sounds like his drug hook-up. Can't be awesome without a stash refill, I guess.
Imagine being able to 1. rock and 2. rule the world - all before 3. going to work! I don't think I'm ambitious enough in the morning.
I always wanted to rule the world, but if it involves taking out the trash I'll pass. That's probably why more people don't aspire to rule the world
Rex Winsome, you're awesome.
We need more Real people down here where I live. Hipsters and wanna-bes seem to cover my city like roaches.
Here's to you, your work, and the Revolution.
At least someone has their priorities straight.
I too adore Rex Winsome and his visions...
This is getting enlarged, printed, and put up on the wall of our dorm room. Because really, this gets it right.
Lu: LOL. i agree.
Found in DC? Certainly this belongs to Cheney?
i wish i could call up biggie smalls right now.
well sometimes i have to write myself list to remind me ruling the world is only my second priority
My friend told me this made a list in a magazine... This was in fact hanging on the wall of my office (at one point) as I wrote it one day bored in my office. Because I love all the great replies I will not explain any of them except 2. The face is for #4 and Biggie is not a drug dealer LOL it is the nickname of my best friend... and he wrote that in there when he was covering for me when I was out of the office. Originally there was no #5. Hope this helps everyone ;-) Thanks for all the great comments. And yes I am a musician as well. Go figure huh?
Cheers!
Leave it up to one of my peeps to create such a list...that's great Dale...you need to call me motherfucker
THIS IS SO COOL! I HAVE KNOW "DALE" (ROB) THE WRITER OF THIS LIST" FOR OVER 9 YEARS AND THIS IS REALLY NEAT THAT THIS WAS POSTED. THIS IS REALLY COOL AND BY THE WAY HE MAY WRITE ON THAT LIST HOW MUCH HE HATES TAKING OUT THE TRASH BUT EVEN IF HE VISITS ME HE WILL TAKE OUT MY TRASH IF IT'S NEEDS TO GO OUT. HE'S A GREAT GUY!!
Rock and Rule the World...Kids are so optimistic these days.
I just saw that the author of the list wrote back!!
Keep rockin', Rob!
1. I have a friend that is like this
2. Has a very professional work environment in DC
3. We have a mopey friend nicknamed Biggie
interesting...
