Yup. I just got back in from Carrot's morning walk and my ears are stinging with the cold.

Once upon a time, someone posted some pictures from an artist who was painting robots into "classic" artwork they had gotten at thrift stores. I've searched with both the cellar search tool and site-specific google, but I can't find it. Anyone know where it is?

nice find, bruce.
Clod-thinking of investing in art? I'm just wondering why you'd think of that. I hate dystopian landscapes. You like?

No no, I just discovered that an old friend of mine does the exact same thing, and I was thinking it might have been his paintings that I remembered being posted here so long ago. I had been thinking it was an IoTD, but it was probably the link that Bruce posted, in the "cool links" thread or something. My friend's paintings are not full of destructive laser-eyes like the ones in the link, they're mostly like a giant robot sitting under a tree contemplating a flower, that sort of thing.

Robot contemplating a flower is better...but I'm still pretty anti-robot.

Tampa on boil water warning because a squirrel chewed through a powerline at the water treatment plant. I have to keep reminding myself not to drink tap water.

The Bobblehead Strikes Again.
Maybe it's the crappy hair cut. There is just something so 'off' about him. Like those monkeys who play the Olsen girls: little tiny bodies and big giant floppy heads. I'll be here all week. Try the caviar in your Oscar Gift Bags. |

Here's one for the ladies.
How many here have been stuck at home for one reason or another (mine is because Eva is crook) and found they're out of tampons, so have gone through every handbag, drawer, travel bag and even the car console, in order to build up a stash to last for a day or two? Is it just me, or are we all idiots?

Nope.
Implant, baby, that's the way to go. But I do get your pain. Have been the same way with migraine meds. Literally crawling round the house in pain and hurt, barely able to see, pawing in potential hidey-holes and finally accepting I am simply going to die. Or going away without coldsore cream - feeling that tingle and knowing I have no other option but to let it bloom like the cankerous flower it is.

Yeah, I'd like to raise my fist in solidarity, but I haven't had a period in almost 4 years now. I've dug around the house like that for Q-tips though. Can't deal with the inside of my ears being wet.
