It’s not porn if you can buy it at a craft show.
Thought I’d just make your Monday a little less dreary with a few links from around the world…
Knitted Breasts – Breasts just like Grandma used to sew. My favorite quote in this BBC news item is from a lactation consultant (look it up) who states quite plainly, “You can buy model breasts, but they cost around £35 each, which is quite prohibitive, as we need about 50.” My high school years would have been much less formidable if I’d known I could buy a breast model instead of spending all my energy chasing down the real thing.
Steampunk Star Wars Drawings – Eric Poulton is a professional video game artist who draws and blogs on the side. He’s started drawing some of the Star Wars characters in a steampunk fashion and they’re quite entertaining. He only has a few so far, but a lot of people are hoping he keeps going until George Lucas shows up at his door and slices out his kneecaps with a lightsaber.
GeekLikeMe.net – More geek links on a regular basis than most people can read at one time. How he finds time for it is beyond me, but there’s always some good stuff there.
ModeratelyAnnoyed.com – I don’t like to mention politics in this blog because, let’s face it, who’s going to have a political discussion with a guy who puts up links to things like Knitted Breasts. But I ran across a new blog that’s simply pointing out a lot of the things that drive us all nuts in politicals and the world in general. ModeratelyAnnoyed.com doesn’t really take a side as much as it seems to voice the opinions of most average moderate Americans. It’s got a refreshingly professional look and style to it, too. Very much unlike this blog.
