What’s your favorite color?

by JD on December 14, 2010

The other day my 4-year-old asked me what my favorite color was. I honestly haven’t spent a whole lot of time thinking of such things since I was, oh, 8 years old, so I just spat out: “Green” for no particular reason.

Kinda like steelhead green, daddy?

Yea, just like that. And…come to think of it…just like the green of a redwood canopy and the green of a steelhead’s back and the green of the moss on the rocks. Turns out, I guess my favorite color is green. Here’s what I mean…

Yea, I like green…of course I also like CHROME!!

green has always been my favorite collar, but sometimes somethings are better off being pink than green. :)

Your writing is good. You are one of the guys that gets it, and can put it on paper. I enjoy your website.

Cheers

That did it. I have now moved into an obsession that will last several months…and then it will go away as quickly and mysteriously as it set in!
