Theodore Will See You in the Drawing Room

I haven't done any drawings for a while but got inspired by the "bears in ill-fitting hats group" on flickr.com.

The Now Sound

Normally I really don't post links to other sites, but this was pretty interesting and I wanted to remember it for myself. Do you know that sound of the 60's that was everywhere except in popular music? That was apparently called the "Now" sound. This is a link to some of it from an interesting site that does a weekly post of music they find on old 45's.

This is reason for the internet. No one would have ever heard of this music if those who control copyrights had total control. Don't believe me? Try to find this music on CD.

Overheard in NY

I had my own decent Overheard in NY moment in the subway today.

late 20's girl: So New York is an island?
late 20's guy : Yeah.
late 20's girl: So it has like a water thing around it?

On the Air

I am on the air! OK, so I'm not starting a podcast, I just finished making the light. I had the "on air" plastic shell for a long time and I finally got around to wiring it up and putting a back on it. Maybe I'll put it over the bathroom and start saying "I'm going to broadcast the news" every time I go to the toilet.

Crap 24/7

Just got this job listing e-mailled to me.... At least they are honest that the shit on this job happens 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Fascinating Fact

The word for "trip to the moon" in German is Mondfahrt, which sounds alot like "mind fart".

Pictures From the Archive

Just found this picture of me when I was about 6 years old. You never know what photos of you are floating around the internet. This is a summer camp up in Bear Mountain State Park. Not a camper there, I was just visiting for the day. I really can't tell you what we were doing but this is the dining room, so we're probably there for the free eats.
