What did that mime say?

Those of you out there who simply love mimes or are teaching your child sign language so that s/he can tell you when diaper needs a-changin' should check this out:




Then head over to Neatorama and check out the whole set. I particularly like the last one where the singer, Natalie Imbruglia, joins him in a duet. Quite nice. Clearly lip-synched but quite nice.

Choose your model carefully

In an effort to contribute to the iPhone iPhrenzy that is sweeping the world ... maybe just the U.S. ... definitely my house, I offer the following photo (dr&dr-ed from PhoneDaily.com):



If Apple had not chosen the hand model used in their ad with such attention to magnificent sensuality, I would not be packing my overnight bags for my camp out in front of the Apple Store on iPhone iEve. The knock-off's hand model looks like he's allergic to shellfish or something. What is wrong with your thumb, dude?

Public Service Announcement

There was a news story about the danger of WiFi routers being the next source of radiation that is going to kill us all. Wellington has posted his response. I'm surprised he doesn't mention bees, or the lack thereof. Here is only one panel from his graphic commentary:


What was really curious to me was what I found when I went searching for the news story to which Wellington reacted: the Radiation Protection News Room run by the EPA of the U.S. of A. The mere existence of such a site gives me pause. It's kind of like a myspace page for atoms. Hmmm... It does have a cool logo though.

Do I have to cite the source of the logo? Didn't my taxes pay for it and make me co-owner/co-copyright-holder? I'm sure I'll get an answer if the Snoops ever find my blog. Stay tuned.

What's under the foil, buddy?

The T really wants a cupcake (or donut or somesuch).

Well, I want my next vehicle to be dead dinosaur free.

Finally, we can agree on something......



If you're not so hot on that sweeeet vehicle, check out the equally driveable fuzzy pink slippers.

Answer to a question I didn't know I had

Now that I see the bones, I realize I have been a little curious. Is that a vestigal tail near the back? I see no digestive tract—where did all the fruit go?


Next thing you know, the corpse from a space invader will be found in the desert, the wreckage of a galaxian mothership will wash up on a beach, and the segments of a centipede larger than anything seen before (and in brighter colors) will be happened upon in the jungle.

The ad campaign worked

I know what my next car is going to be and I know why.
Well, I can add the ad campaign to the list of reasons why. Consider it the icing on the hood.





In case you can't read the text, they say:
Still looking for weapons of mass destruction. Not Smart.
Interns and cigars. Not Smart.
Pissing off junior and senior Bush. Not Smart.
