sling backs? sounds dirtay what r they? :D

mine would be my glasses. I'm practically blind without them

a Rolex GMT-Master II wristwatch I've had since 1988.

myself

powerbook
khs

my 'quitting smoking take practice' pen

a stuffed dog named 'tinker' that i've have since i was 4

my student loans -- they show that i have indeed been doing something fairly productive these past few years

memories of europe, boys, and stalking bands

brown666 is officially my new favorite archinect name

brown666, how modest of you!

acess, hon, I hope you're joking but just in case you're not they're shoes dear, shoes!

a british airways barf bag autographed by michael jordan ... i got back in 1985 ... when he had hair!!!!!

british airways sucks, the food is horrible and the pilots are usually drunk! but I guess it worked for you!

That's a tough one...

Either my PowerBook...
=or=
My growing collection of moleskine journals...

bein modest is great but if your powerbook is more worth than yourself, i think you're in a bad shape!

Definately my tennis equipment. Everything finely tuned to match my style of play.
Wonder if they remembered to send me my wildcard to Wimbledon this year. They always seem to forget...

Brain-Eyes-Hands, want to keep these in good working order.
But I guess your question refers to more material objects...

My beautifull old single track bicycle...gets me around cheaply
My digital camera...to capture things around me
My fountain pen... sketching as therapy

an antique navigator parallel bar from the mid 19th century, made of ebony. Granted the way I treat it you'd never know its most cherished at times.

a set of old drafting tools from my father. they are made out of silver (99%) and ivory. I'm not an ivory-lover; it's just passed down stuff, you know.

i have so much stuff that i cart around with me when i move, never thinking i can get rid of any of it > and i can't think of any one or two things that stand out! i'd probably have to default to my library: about 45 boxes full and growing all the time.

ward
me, 3 books, cloths, cook pans, computer.
many things of me make slave. you boxes leave at corner, walk, like feel feather.

no way. i'm not the travelin'-light type. more of a nester.

My over 1,000 copy plus poster collection.

Whatever sketchbook is in my hand at the time. My left hand always holds my palmpilot case with all of my ID, credit/debit cards, business cards, etc, and that sits on top of my sketchbook. The second I lose my balance or trip, my thumb pushes off the palmpilot case and grasps the sketchbook, rain or shine. Palm pilot is beat up but the case just can't resist the sidewalk.

passport - and associated benefits

i've never owned a pair of "slingbacks" so i guess the item i cherish the most is the only bike i've ever owned; a pink schwinn that i got for my 11th birthday.

i would be pretty useless with my expensive eyeglasses as well.

motorola razr... and it was free!

PIANO!!!!

My family's health and companionship, first.

Material posessions? Art.

Richard DeVore, gift from the artist for our wedding (similar image):



My Ben Woodward (this very one):



That's the two extreme ends of my art collection. Although I cherish every piece, the Devore is the first one I'd run to save in a fire.

Education, memories/experiences, and my laptop.

3ifs:
is the razr really great? i've been thinking about getting one!

stephanie, are you serious? well maybe we should get you a pair!

my powerbook
my 200 or so dvd collection
my 20 or so el croquis
and just a bunch of books
oh and all my golden acryclic paint and associated drawings/paintings

paris,
are they good for bike riding?

well hon, considering you've never owned a pair (which I still don't believe by the way) I'd give it a little while before riding bikes in them, but they sure are sexy!

i have said for years that if there was a fire, i would grab three things (my scenario allows for TIME to grab these things!)...

my cat

my pearls (they were a special gift from parents)

and an old 3x5 lined pink notecard with my grandmother's signature cookie recipe written in her handwriting...completely irreplaceable!

i have two. rolex oyster perpetual that was my dad's his high school graduation present . 150 yr old navajo blanket my great grandfather brought back from arizona.

Eame's lounge chair/ottoman, saarinen dining table w/tulip chairs, 2 Wassily chairs, oldie's but goodie's.

hek ya!

Powerbook...Patagonia bike courier bag....New Kona King Kikapua. They all kind of go together, I just wish I had time to organize my life that way.

my laptop?

and i have set #483 of 500 of the original "oblique strategies" cards by brian eno and peter schmidt.

Lightspeed Arenberg, Sidi's, Santa Cruz Superlight, metabolism

i do have a sweet pair of slingbacks, but i'll got to go with my jewelry boxes and my kitties and my temperpedic mattress

TOP 3: In this order

-my cat, zephyr

-my black eames DSX chair. Stolen from the art dept. durning my years as an undergrad. It began a fascination with design that ultimately led me to architecture.

-my crate of CLASSIC CHICAGO HOUSE tunes from the 80s! So awesome.

My Tag Kirium Chronograph
My Bertolucci Uomo

(thanks eBay)

My '91 300ZX TT
My Santa Cruz Blur, although it doesn't see enough use

My workstations and new 24" LCD - without them, none of the other stuff would exist

My Martin Guitar...although it has a FUCKING crack in it now!

my books, paintings, drawings, brushes, and a piece of land I own somewhere near some beach, and oh my painting pants!

george nelson thinedge rosewood bedroom set, gibson es175, someone boosted my schwinn speedster....

stephanie, best phone EVAR. its fits so nicely in my pants... pocket that is.

Where can I get a free razr?

I cherish every bottle of wine I have...until they are drank. Then I cherish the drunkeness - until the next morning.
