You will probably fail more often than you succeed

The Great Guinea Pig Uprising – when guinea pigs attack.



The Great Guinea Pig Uprising – when guinea pigs attack.

August 29, 2007 from writing book #7 “Boston: Edward Hooper, Poet of the Ordinary – A stranger in a world he never made...” Kevin Dayhoff

So now that I have the title, I just need to develop a plot and characters.

I should probable consult and collaborate with the Scotts, they have that large farming operation just south of Westminster. Karen and Harold Scott, Lindsey and Shannon.

Maybe a subplot might be: Ephesians 6:10-18 The Whole Armor of God

10 Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord and in the power of His might. 11 Put on the whole armor of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. 12 For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age,[a] against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. 13 Therefore take up the whole armor of God that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

14 Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, 15 and having shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; 16 above all, taking the shield of faith with which you will be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked one. 17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; 18 praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints— Ephesians 6: 10-18

Oh, the image comes from an article in the www.dailymail.co.uk a number of years ago…. Chainmail guinea pig outfit set to sell for over $24,000 as . Trendsetter: An unexpected bidding war has erupted on eBay over this chainmail guinea pig outfit… The article is from June 20, 2013 and is, well, hysterical. Find it here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2345120/Chainmail-guinea-pig-outfit-set-sell-24-000-extreme-animal-lovers-spark-eBay-bidding-war.html

For whatever reason, recently several folks have asked where they may find my essays on Edward Hopper.  There are two.  One may be found in The Tentacle here: Edward Hopper: Poet of the ordinary

And another was posted here: Originally posted September 10, 2007

Kevin E. Dayhoff

Edward Hopper's "Nighthawks," 1942, oil on canvas, depicts a voyeuristic portrayal of ambiguous urban alienation and impersonalization as three customers and a soda jerk spend time together in the harsh glare of artificial light in the middle of the night.

The voyeuristic stark world of American Scene realist artist Edward Hopper was recently displayed at the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston.

August 15, 2007


20090706 sdosm 20070905 Edward Hopper

There is a certain unexplainable enigma that draws folks back again and again to ponder the mysteries of Edward Hopper's "American Scene" paintings.

Perhaps it is Hopper's peculiar way of depicting the stark existence of the human condition in such a simple "language" which begs for questions ... yet offers no answers.

American writer Elbert Green Hubbard died on the RMS Lusitania on May 7, 1915

American writer Elbert Green Hubbard died on the RMS Lusitania on May 7, 1915 - by Kevin E. Dayhoff http://kevindayhoffart.blogspot.com/2015/06/american-writer-elbert-green-hubbard.html


American writer Elbert Green Hubbard died on the RMS Lusitania on May 7, 1915 by Kevin E. Dayhoff 

Elbert Green Hubbard, June 19, 1856 - May 7, 1915

“God will not look you over for medals, degrees or diplomas but for scars.”
― Elbert Hubbard


"To avoid criticism, do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing." - Elbert Hubbard http://kevindayhoffart.blogspot.com/2015/06/american-writer-elbert-green-hubbard.html

1904 Photo of Mr. Hubbard courtesy of the Library of Congress: http://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/93508629/

May 7, 2015 Kevin E. Dayhoff - It was 100 years ago that our nation’s literary, cultural and artistic community mourned the death of Elbert Green Hubbard, June 19, 1856 - May 7, 1915, an American philosopher, artist, and writer.

He died on the RMS Lusitania on May 7, 1915, when the ship was sunk by the Germans off the coast of Ireland.

He is well-known for publishing two satirical and witty magazines, “The Philistine,” and “The Fra.”

In addition to remembering him for his quotes, I remember him best as the author of “A Message to Garcia.” One of my favorite quotes is by Mr. Hubbard: “God will not look you over for medals degrees or diplomas, but for scars.”

Not to be overlooked was the not too insignificant matter that he was federally prosecuted and subsequently convicted on January 11, 1913, for circulating "objectionable" matter in violation of the postal laws - - every writer’s nightmare who fears the consequences of writing material that government officials deem not in line with the official viewpoint of the government at the time. Fortunately he received a pardon by President Woodrow Wilson.

Mr. Hubbard is also known for his actions onboard the Lusitania on May 7, 1915, after the ship was struck by a torpedo.

According to a letter written to his son, Elbert Hubbard II dated March 12, 1916, by Ernest C. Cowper, a survivor of the sinking of the Lusitania, found in the papers of Mr. Hubbard collected by the "Elbert Hubbard Papers Manuscript Group #17" at the Indiana University of Pennsylvania; page 3 and 4:

“I cannot say specifically where your father and Mrs. Hubbard were when the torpedoes hit, but I can tell you just what happened after that. They emerged from their room, which was on the port side of the vessel, and came on to the boat-deck. Neither appeared perturbed in the least. Your father and Mrs. Hubbard linked arms—the fashion in which they always walked the deck—and stood apparently wondering what to do. I passed him with a baby which I was taking to a lifeboat when he said, 'Well, Jack, they have got us. They are a damn sight worse than I ever thought they were.'

“They did not move very far away from where they originally stood. As I moved to the other side of the ship, in preparation for a jump when the right moment came, I called to him, 'What are you going to do?' and he just shook his head, while Mrs. Hubbard smiled and said, 'There does not seem to be anything to do.'

“The expression seemed to produce action on the part of your father, for then he did one of the most dramatic things I ever saw done. He simply turned with Mrs. Hubbard and entered a room on the top deck, the door of which was open, and closed it behind him. It was apparent that his idea was that they should die together, and not risk being parted on going into the water.”

Success is the art of failing forward

Success is the art of failing forward

“Success is stumbling from failure to failure with no loss of enthusiasm,” Winston S. Churchill. Or perhaps a different perspective is offered by Thomas A. Edison, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.”

I have always thought that success is the art of failing forward. I am not sure if that is really original, but that is how I have always understood success since I was quite young and starting-out. I never let not know what I was doing to stop me and I kept failing forward… To this very day.

30 Powerful Quotes on Failure by Ekaterinea Walter, 12/30/2013 at Forbes - http://www.forbes.com/sites/ekaterinawalter/2013/12/30/30-powerful-quotes-on-failure/

It seems that failure tends to be more public than success. Or at least that’s what we perceive it to be. We fret it, we try to avoid it, and we question ourselves every time we have unconventional ideas. But the simple truth is – no great success was ever achieved without failure. It may be one epic failure. Or a series of failures – such as Edison’s 10,000 attempts to create a light bulb or Dyson’s 5,126 attempts to invent a bagless vacuum cleaner. But, whether we like it or not, failure is a necessary stepping stone to achieving our dreams.

Several months ago I gave a short, TED-style talk on the topic. And today I wanted to share this collection of 30 quotes that will hopefully inspire you to look at failure differently.

1. “Failure isn’t fatal, but failure to change might be” – John Wooden

2. “Everything you want is on the other side of fear.”  - Jack Canfield

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt. -- Abraham Lincoln. Also attr. Confucius, George Elliot, and Mark Twain 1835-1910. In the Bible, 'Proverbs' 17:28 also addresses the matter: Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.

Tom Robbins, Still Life With Woodpecker: It was autumn, the springtime of death.


“It was autumn, the springtime of death. Rain spattered the rotting leaves, and a wild wind wailed. Death was singing in the shower. Death was happy to be alive. The fetus bailed out without a parachute. It landed in the sideline Astroturf, so upsetting the cheerleaders that for the remained of the afternoon their rahs were more like squeaks.”

Thomas Eugene Robbins (born July 22, 1936 in Blowing Rock, North Carolina) is an American author. His novels are complex, often wild stories with strong social undercurrents, a satirical bent, and obscure details. His novel Even Cowgirls Get the Blues (1976) was made into a movie in 1993 directed by Gus Van Sant.
