Rubik, Robert Evans ,and Patton Oswalt



One of the best comedy album's I've gotten in a while is Patton Oswalt's Feelin Kinda Patton. I had tickets to see him and David Cross ( also super awesome!) perform here in Athens at the world famous 40 Watt club a few years ago.

Well, through some mishaps I didn't get to go. I was a little mad, but...Okay, it turns out that the album Feelin' Kinda Patton was the ACTUAL RECORDING of the SHOW I MISSED!!The point is that there's a great bit about Robert Evans involving a Rubik's cube. I've had one since they hit the market, but I now can't look at one without thinking about that bit. I owe some thanks to Patton Oswalt.

Incidently, this was a color mixing feast!!"

I'm a Pepper


I have several things to say about this one. First, if you actually drank Dr. Pepper a 10:00, 2:00, and 4:00 you might not have any teeth or high level of kidney function after a while. Secondly, I have a relative ( who shall remain nameless) who actually had a brief "situation" with David Naughton ( the "I'm a Pepper" guy). I think she thought that he was going to take her away with him to Pepperland ( "we're in love and NO ONE will stop us!!").

Yeah, that never happened. I wonder what I'm going to call the second one of this series? Hmmm...

Incidently, there is no reserve on this one.

Some large stuff



Here are two paintings I did for Gallery Piquel in PA. These are on canvas ( the boards get to be REALLY heavy when you get over 30") and are 36" x 36" each. You can contact Gallery Piquel for purchase info on these. Here's the title info on them respectively:

-Redneck Slinky, 2007

36" x 36", oil on canvas

-Pep-O-mint, 2007

36" x 36", oil on canvas


I'm finishing up some more paintings for ebay this weekend of some of my antique silver and glass collection. My favorite venue for antiques is now gone in Atlanta so it looks like I'll have to find a new one ( there's an indoor one once a month but its not the same...). Pin It Now!
