You can't kill Michael Malloy

I’ve heard of Michael Malloy for the first time in a song by Primus . It’s an instrumental only 25 seconds long off their first album, Frizzle Fry . Some time passed until my best man got interested in the meaning behind the strange title – You can’t kill Michael Malloy . We came across a very interesting story that indeed happened in New York during the Great Depression in the US in the 1930s. The story centered on an Irish immigrant, an ex-fire fighter who at the time was a homeless alcoholic and a regular in a speakeasy.

Septembra 2016 sam se prihvatio učešća u akciji 30/30 koju je inicirao Youth Art Collective, Monterey CA. Umetnički centar namenjen edukaciji mladih koji uspešno vode Meg Biddle i Marcia Perry. Sam naziv akcije kaže 30 crteža za 30 dana (za svaki dana po jedan). Ovde su neke od njih a odlika im je prvenstveno brza izrada. Ovakve akcije su odlične za radnu naviku /naročito za lenjivca kao što sam ja :)
