Randomly found this drawing online a while back and was able to track down the source – a blog entry that includes second grade art and the wisdom of Roger Ebert, do enjoy.


I was researching vintage children’s clothes on ebay, when I came across this haunting mannequin wearing a fab fur headband. The seller is one “elliemay61″, and she’s got some great vintage finds along with the creepiest and coolest mannequin around.




A whole bunch of costume creations culled from google images. Some are not pretty after the jump.

I lost this ebay item years and years ago but have kept the photo hidden on my desktop all this time.

One of the best photos I’ve ever found online.
Again, I don’t have any pictures of myself with anyone of note. HOWEVER, I found this picture on a blog somewhere and I think it’s AWESOME. The look on the kid’s face is priceless. I wish there was a picture of me like this, pining for an angry movie star with a lame tattoo.


Fabio and I met, rather romantically, at Media Play, under the soft glare of florescent lights, surrounded by a surging crowd of women waiting to get their Pirate, Viking, and Rogue novels sign. The man is a saint by the way, and while sipping from what looks like both a red and white glass of wine, stayed for hours until every last fan had the chance to meet him.
Want to fall further in love with the man that was once hit in the face with a bird AND hosted the unfairly forgotten gem, Mr. Romance? Please listen to his expert advice on love here (scroll to the bottom of the page) from the PHENOMINAL album Fabio After Dark.



I happened upon these amazing photographs on Flickr. They we taken by a school teacher who is (unnecessarily) modest about her talents as a photographer. There are over three hundred images in the captivating series, so take some time to sit down and enjoy. I’ve posted a few favorites here and many after the jump.
CORRECTION. I received more accurate information on these shots from a commenter:
“A man by the name of George Plemper who once lived and teached in Thamesmead took these photos. He returned to the area last year and exhibited his photos during Local and Community History Month on behalf of Trust Thamesmead.”
Thanks!

My surname is very common in the South and I love to google it to see what my possible relatives are up to. This awesome lady is one I’d like to count as an honorary relative. Wanda is a “Houston Talk Show Personality/Local and National”.
