Yeah, I have seen that one before. A lot of it is the different color of the letters, but the shadow makes it easy to fool the eyes. Our brains are very good at pattern matching, we analyze something based on what we have observed in the past. The brain thinks it has found a pattern, and makes up the rest I guess. Get crackin speck, lot more to go.
chiefwagonburner when I was little my goal in life was to know everything and to read every book that had ever been written. Ah, well.
Miss Speck and the Giant Librarians  I just had to varify that this was true using the Gimp (basically Photoshop). My roommate sent it to me with no explanation. The brain is a wonderful organ, but I don't like it sugar coating things for me and I don't like it tricking itself! As I posted, I executed this search and found this Awwa, no better, no badder, no badgers! I can watch that for hours. Seriously. Ah, the hypnotic power of nonsense. There's sound.
jimmy No Better No Badder Awwa \A/ (PS: What to say, whenever)
Aw This is a great read. As I was telling Jimmy, if I ever had fat stacks of cash, this would be an amazing project. The potential is quite unbelievable.
chiefwagonburner I was driving through Silverlake when I heard. He lived in Silverlake. He was basically my neighbor and his songs are so much about Los Angeles. Well, they're a lot about his addictions, too, but if you get beyond that there is a lot of alienation embedded in the songs. I understand this, particularly in relation to this very city. I've never cried about the death of a celebrity before, at least not that I can recall. I've felt moments of respect and missings for celebrities when they're announced as gone, but this was different for me. I almost turned around and went back home for the day. I guess part of the reason it was so intense was that KCRW was playing sets of his songs and announcing his death every 10 minutes or so. I never saw him play live and I only have one of his CDs. I was surprised at myself for feeling it so dynamically and barely being able to see the road because of all of the tears coming out. I don't know what it's like to be as trapped by drugs and alcohol as he was, but I still recognized a lot about my self and my life in his work. Please let him be in a place of painlessness now.
Anna Thats too bad. More info here.
chiefwagonburner Elliot Smith is dead.
jimmy Thanks peoples. You might need special training for moon toilets, Jeffron. Found this interesting page of art from Japan (seems to be mostly Tokyo). Some of my favorite pieces of this are paintings on street people's cardboard homes.
chiefwagonburner Blessed be the Mother and Child! May that ever be so! Blessings to you Coop, and little Charlotte! Procreation is among the best creations that can be created! I'm not so versed in that aspect of creation, to speak anymore at all, ever (unless by some strange stroke of luck, I become a father, and then even then, I will still be totally in the dark)! Good fortune to you and the burgeoning Charlotte! Two broken big toes, one or more gone to the doctors, and they all said the same, "walk it off." Basically, the wisdom of our times is that the bones are too small to articulate them in such a way that thety'd heal any better in splints or casts. Please, please, please, consult your local HMO or other health plan designated physician! They might actually make you wear one of those GREAT open toed, velcro, sandals! I had one for awhile when I had gout, it was great! Only problem was finding a mate! I'd wear them for life, if I could get away with it! Heh, Heh! Sorry for the pain! Toe pain is almost as bad as Tooth pain! Now that's some outstanding pain! Tell me about it after they're pulling the last of your adult teeth! Well paradontal disease is another story. But I always drank the same florinated water of everyone else! Heh Heh! Brush at least once a day, and maybe you'll avoid my plight, maybe! Now that we're beyond toe/tooth pain... what can I say? We had a GREAT wake for my passed friend this weekend! Friends long lost, came out of the woodwork! People that I'd not seen for years were there! And some folks I just met! It was a nice gathering of 20 or more folks, gathered in his name. A nice send-off! Some of us went on to an outdoor bar, and had another few pitchers o beer. While there, we drew a few "Exquisit Corpses" had a Bride to be approach us to sign an inflated penis (4 foot or so long), fellows displayed their own and their daughter's mermaid drawings, other zanyness! And then the moveable feast moved to my watering hole, "Main Street Beer Company." There we had a few more beers. Then we finally settled at a friend's home. There were only 5 or so of us left. We musta toasted the son of a gun into the next millennia! Listened to all of that progressive music, sang those songs, joked about all of those things, we/he may have cared about. I tip my hat to the passing of Bob the Bruce. Yep, his name is another story. Peace All! Awwa \A/
Aw 14 pounds. Those wacky brits.
chiefwagonburner Yeah, The Man In Black. Let me be the first to congratulate the People's Republic of China. I hope they set up a hotel on the moon, one that needs experienced toilet cleaners. I'd work for free. Nothing like 44 days in a box without food to make you appreciate the little things. (How much does a 'stone', weigh, anyhow?)
jeffron x way more baby pics now available - thank you all for your nice messages. miss mini cooper is preventing me from reaching shift key but we do what we can. hehe. chief, there may not be much they can do for your toe - ouch. a horse stepped on my foot when i was 11 and i didn't realize i had broken anything until it healed and the toe would no longer bend. i can make a nice 'sign of the horns' with my foot however. charlotte has inherited my feet or at least the shapes of her toenails. i hope she got her father's arches so nobody will ever tell her she can't be a ballerina...... but i digress, having extremely 1 track mind. go marlins.
coop They cant really do anything for cracked toes, right? I mean other than splint/tape them. My neighborhood has a lot of 2 things, great old houses and old broken sidewalks. Looking at house + jutting sidewalk + flip-flops = cracked big toe (I think). I don't need to bother seeing a doc, right? I'll just walk around like a gimp for a couple days.
chiefwagonburner An interesting photo journal of Afganistan.
