Dylan Sisson
Dylan Sisson resides in Seattle, where he draws and paints wall-eyed curiosities with big teeth. I fell in love with one of his images and reached out to see if he had plans to make it available as a poster.
He was kind enough to add the image and I purchased immediately. Don’t know if it’s still available but I like having it on my wall.

Least Wanted
I’m becoming a big fan of flicker, the online photo site. Check out Least Wanted for some fascinating mug shots, including the one above. “Involved in a cutting scrape with Wm. Merrie – allegedly fighting over women.” Caution: There are more than 400 of these and it’s hard to do just one. I vow to upload all of my photos if it takes the rest of my days.

Niketown sneakers
I love the idea of designing (okay, picking the colors for) my own sneakers. Niketown makes it very easy. If I guessed right on the size I’ll be stylin’. If I guessed wrong, I have a pair of hundred dollar chew toys.

Winter is not over
Winter is not over in Wisconsin. Photo above taken by Bob Hague while riding his snow-tire equipped bike Saturday morning. We suspect he stopped to take this shot but he wasn’t clear on that point.
Cartoons on the back of business cards
Hugh Macleod “draws cartoons on the back of business cards” and writes about about advertising and marketing. The cartoon above spoke to me until I broke it down:
A 28-year-old wasn’t born when 3 Days of the Condor was released; I’d eventually comment on her stupidity; I could not “do the time”; and I’d never give up my Casio. But the naked part sounded okay.
Jefferson City Art in the Park
Jefferson City had a little “Art in the Park” thing today. I thought it much better than these things usually turn out. I especially liked the Statue of Liberty piece and the giant eggs.
