Really?

excel-art-tatsuo-horiuchi-3-painting

Tatsuo Horiuchi, a 73-year-old Japanese man, created this art.
I said: “Nice.”
Then I checked out some of his other creations.
Then I said: “Very Nice.”
Then I learned how he did it.
Then I said: “Really?”
Then I went back and looked more closely.
Then I scratched my head and said: “Amazing.”

  8. An MBA-school classmate (also a mechanical engineer) once told me, “Len, with Excel, $100 in cash, and a roll of duct tape, you can solve 99% of the problems the world throws at you.” I think this supports his theory, though I am not sure that’s what Mr. Horiuchi had in mind, however.
