Well stuff my toes with corn cobs! Due to my caucasian lack of rhythm, I left an item off of last post's Inspiration-Down!. Of course I only remembered it whilst away on one of my moonlighting missions of gluing all of Castro's spoons together while still in the silverware drawer in a conspiratorial effort to drive him insane (and so far, point Osgood) and there being not an ounce of internet in all of Cuba, I had to abort this mission mid-glue and catch the quickest raft back to the states so that I didn't leave anything unfinished. Well, except for that latest Castro mission. Frig! Curse you Joseph Heller! Curse you for inventing the Catch-22! Anyhow, the missing item is as follows:

This week's episode of Lost! I know, I know--this must seem wig after months and months of me saying this show can suck my butt tentacles, but this episode was actually really good! Of course, it didn't hurt that it was about Sayid who's the only worthwhile character the show has besides Hurley, but it was a rare occurrence that the flashbacks were just as interesting as the island. I also lend my McSonogram-brand of approval to the ending--Sayid's arc was subtle but still popped home with resonance, plus, it gave us some interesting happenings (i.e. the clock reaching zero) which were ambiguous enuf for us to get curious, but weren't mind-fuggity enuf to dangle a colossal carrot in front of us then repocket sed carrot, give us the finger, and leave us dangling for two weeks like they usually do. So J.J., keep the rest of the season going like this, and I might actually enjoy your show again. And if you wanna make me especially happy? Gradually kill off everyone but Sayid and Hurley.

And today's images are various cafe sketches I did at Santa Barbara a month ago but put into color. Sure, they'd look ginchier if I took the time to clean them up (or knew anything about color) but since time hasn't been my friend lately, take it up with him.

My hotplate is fine.

i thought this episode was perfectly fine, i'll gladly except a Sayid episode, though i would've enjoyed it more if they told us something about him that we didn't already know. seems like all they're doing this season is trying to set up everybody as some badass. which is sorta boring. the only person on that island that's at all flawed anymore is Charlie but he's such a whiny bitch now I hate him.
as for the drawings, stupendous. and i don't have any problem with the colors, they seem pretty true to life and there's nothing wrong with that. Though I gotta say, there must be alotta white people in Santa barbara, looks like a real Browe town.

I like the colors, they're cool and they're sexy, just like Barry White's square on Hollywood Squares.
