What she said...

Don't know where it came from originally, but I love it. Makes me think of a few Civil War banners that were going around a while back.

New advertising stuff.

So I'm trying to get more people to show up to my shop, and I'm trying Project Wonderful, but I'm also thinking I'll provide some buttons, for if you want to get in on the action, and put a button on your site to help me out.


Once I get my brain in gear, I'll find the code to give you the whole shebang as an embeddable object, but till then, here are the buttons I've made so far.

In case you think McCain is a good idea...

Think again. I personally don't want this particular 72 year old man with his finger on the button. I'm not saying 72 is too old to make a contribution to society. I just don't know that for this septuagenarian that contribution should be the highest seat in the land. I'm sure there ARE people over 70 who would be capable of doing it well. I'm just not sure McCain is one of them.

Bulls.

The bulls were doing great the whole game, and then they tanked in the last 2 minutes of play. Here's a pic of me and the lovely one around third period when they were still winning, and she was on her way to a free big mac...which I think the Bulls still owe her.

Redcap Oranda - Koi (foamboard and acrylic)

Just posted this for sale on ChilledMonkeyBrains. It's for all those of you who needed a foamboard fish painting to put on your wall next to your fishtank, so that people passing by know what's in there. (you know you can't see anything for all the algae that's accumulated over the years. Get a pleco, for God's sake! That's what they're for!)

Dear God. This made me spit up laughing.

My girlfriend sent me the one with the guy in bed and his cat wakes him up, but I hadn't seen this one. The moment where the door is opened and the cat just sits there is priceless. Made me spit my drink. Almost nose-explosion.

Obama's Not Gonna Be Boxed In, You Hill-ites.

A great PSA for drivers to watch.

It'll make you think about keeping an eye out for scooters and bikes.

Watch the whole thing.

Almost Baby-ocalypse

Here's one that's almost done. Just needs a caption. I've got a few brewing, but nothing that's solidly smacking me in the face with how well it fits.

The Revolution Will Not Be Televised...It'll Be Blogged?

Warren Ellis has posted this on his blog, which is rather eye-catching.

A well thought out and provocative look at the 1962 work of sociologist James Davies, who laid out seven preconditions for violent revolution. The author stresses the point that all of these preconditions have now been met to one degree or another in the current U.S.

The seven conditions are:
1. Soaring then crashing standards of living
2. Rising class war/disillusionment
3. A generation of abandoned intellectuals (hey that’s you guys)
4. Incompetent government
5. Failure of leadership
6. Fiscal Irresponsibility
7. Inept and inconsistent use of force

Um. Yup. I've seen people signing up for their rocks and riot gear of late. I tend to hope that my meditation and bringing of the funny will cosmically help to temper things a bit and make it a revolution with a plan for what comes next, but we'll have to wait and see.
