Rick Springfield - Jessie's Girl

Who can forget this classic! I was so impressed with myself when I figured out how to play this song on the guitar way "back in the day".

"Why can't I find a woman, why can't I find a woman like that! And I've been lookin' in the mirror all the time. Wonderin' what she don't see in me. I've been funny. I've been cool with the lines... ain't that the way love is supposed to be (smashes mirror with guitar)."

Chipmunk Babies

Baby chipmunks are in my backyard. They're so cute. This summer there were three squirrel babies and two chipmunk babies (that I've seen).

There were also about fifty (yes, 50) birds within a 5 foot radius of me. It was like the movie The Birds. The older chipmunks were chasing them away but they'd come and go in the little group. It's so funny to see about 50 birds scatter into the bushes and then come back 30 seconds later.

Creep of the Week: Yaddle

Were you aware that there is a female from Yoda's species? This is super creepy and made me laugh for about 10 minutes straight.

This is a real picture of a "female" Yoda from the recent Star Wars movies. I guess she's on the Jedi Council (whatever that is). LOL. Creeepers.

Her name is Yaddle. I wonder if she lactates and if so if her milk is green. Yuckers! Can you imagine Yoda kissing this?

I bet Yoda was gay. All alone on Dagobah hiding away from the females like this.


Also, speaking of Yoda. This is really funny... and kinda cute.

Puppy Games 2008

The night of the Olympics Opening Ceremonies was one of the best nights in television. Not only were the Ceremonies mind blowing, Animal Planet now does a Puppy Games during the ceremony. So when the commercials are on or a boring country is on the Parade of Nations I was switching over to the Puppy Games 2008. It's all puppy's.

I couldn't find a YouTube video of the Puppy Games so I put up last year's Puppy Bowl. I watched this when Super Bowl commercials were on.

Puppies, puppies, puppies. There was the cutest little Boston Terrier on the Puppy Games 2008 this year.

Address Labels

Here's one (of two) of the address label sheets I made for you. Like I said, "They'll be a little different". Since I am an "art-teast", I am always exploring new ways to communicate my problems and view of the world visually to other less intelligent beings. It's amazing that my brain can even fit within my head as my brilliance is so prevalent.

Address labels are my canvas, ink-jet printers. expensive computer programs (and pictures found on the internet) and blue Kool-Aid is my paint.

I think they're pretty cool. "Just throwing that out there" and if you don't like them or appreciate my brilliance as an address label artist I'll have to find a different medium.

Wait till you see the second design? This is white and the other is black and trippy. A night and day theme, if you will.

I do color outside of the lines...

Olivia Newton-John - Physical (Solid Gold)1980

The lyrics are hilarious. I've never actually listened to them until now.

Panda Game

Check this out. I think this is a real game that's coming out soon. I think it's like Nintendogs but with Pandas. I don't know if I'll "actually" buy it, "if you will" but I sure want to see what it looks like when it comes to the U.S.

Look at that big furry cutie baby.

John Cafferty & The Beaver Brown Band - On the Dark Side

You've got to remember this one. I loved this song back in elementary school. Every time I hear it I've got to stop and listen. Love that sax solo.

Beauty of Graphic Novels

After being frustrated with a terrible time consuming book like "Twilight", I switched to reading a few comics or "graphic novels" as the comic cognoscenti call them.

Here are a few reasons why "graphic novels" are cool.
1) They're the perfect mix of book and movie
2) They only take a couple hours to read
3) They're nerdy and intelligent like books
4) They've got super cool art (in most cases)
5) They're entertaining and action oriented

The new Batman movie reminded me how much I love the Batman in comics. There are many thousands of GNs that are out there and most are available at the library for free! My brother got me two for my B-Day and I'm excited to read them. It's like a cool movie in a book that I can read anytime. 

Pay no attention to the stigma of comics because you're missing out on some really great stories and fantastic art.
