100 Thing Challenge
100 Thing Challenge Question: So you have taken the 100 Thing Challenge or some form of it or been inspired by it. Now what are you motivated to do?
100 Thing Challenge It just occurred to me. We say that the U.S. is a knowledge-based economy. Then how come over 70% of it is made up of consumerism?
100 Thing Challenge Ok. Got a starter guitar for my oldest. And my youngest got a starter darbuka drum. If all goes well, I'm buying a bus next year that we'll paint bright colors and tour the country in :-)
100 Thing Challenge This looks great! Please consider participating.

100 Thing Challenge So my oldest daughter wants to start playing the guitar. (Middle daughter plays the piano.) We went to guitar center and now I have MAJOR instrument envy. Crap, I knew I shouldn't have sold my guitar. Oh, and some of those drums were so cool. Feeling weak...

Diana Johnson Ladouceur If the challenge is to prove that money can't buy happiness? As a country, this might say it all. I took this at the Nashville Tea Party this past summer. It's safe to say there were NOT a lot of people there who were thrilled about the spending our country is doing....
Anna Thompson challengestuffphoto09 -- A serene figure amid a sea of oddities. If she were the patron saint of lost gimcracks or mismatched earrings, she would be truly in her element.
100 Thing Challenge This isn't for the photo contest, but I thought I'd share it anyway. There was a solar-powered concert at PLNU recently and I grabbed a few shots, including this one.
100 Thing Challenge This is hard to fathom. Incredibly sad. Not just because albatrosses are cool birds, but because there must just be a sick amount of trash the Pacific.

These photographs of albatross chicks were made just a few weeks ago on Midway Atoll, a tiny stretch of sand and coral near the middle of the North Pacific. The nesting babies are fed bellies-full ...

When they saw my camera, a group of Malawian kids started doing flips off the fishing boats sitting on the lakeshore. If you were to use the word "game" with these kids, you wouldn't need to distinguish between board games, video games, card games, or computer games. The only games they know involve simple creative energy, and they're obviously very good at it.

Children in a small village in Malawi laugh and joke with each other. The boys in the back are making a big show of eating nsima, or cornmeal porridge, the staple food they eat every day. Their obvious glee in spite of their material lack emphasizes how little we truly need.

In Malawi (where I live), I'm always overwhelmed that some of the happiest people are the ones who have virtually nothing. This boy has two toys: one is a piece of wire and one is a bottle cap. If he owns shoes, he only wears them to go to school or church. Yet the smile on his face says it all.
