Letterman is funny.

Joke from the other night's show:

"Fidel Castro is stepping down, and announced he will be succeeded by his idiot son Fidel W. Castro."

Err ... this is supposed to be Kara Thrace ...

Not EVEN close, I know, but I like the colors anyway - they sort of match this blog's colors. I have this box of pastels and a 99¢ sketchpad left over from an exercise (but that's another story).

Christmas Eve, I came across the supplies which were resting under a stack of books and mags I plan to sell some time. I noticed them when I added this month's Wired to the stack, so thought I'd see what would come of playing around with these materials in the Silent Night, I made drew sketch from a small Katee Sackhoff-as-Starbuck publicity shot alongside a minor rant by a Wired staffer that BSG will not be back until April. Happy Holidays anyway, skiffy lovers!

Design changes

Sadly, all the available fonts look crappy on Windows boxes. My advice: get a Mac, or run Ubuntu.

But then again the same site's "which college should I go to" and "which TV show should I watch" quizzes netted me the answers, "Texas Christian University," and "CSI:NY" respectively. So I think I will stick with Obama for now, thank you very much for playing indeed!

Better than average editing

Youtube has no shortage of old movie clips mashed with Queen's "We Will Rock You", but this one really works, the ape make-up makes it easy to match up the lyrics. I especially like the single shot of Dr. Zaius -- a grumpy old orangutan perturbed by all the rockin'.

And this ...

Seal generator, again. Has added stuff since I played around with it last.

Latest "Heroes" review

My review of Heroes episode 19, ".07%" is now up on TVSquad.

New "Heroes" post up

Of episode 13 "The Fix" at TvS. Takei!

Here's a snip, a mini-editorial on how I feel about George Takei being cast in the show:

Some viewers aren't looking to give Takei much of a chance, based on web chatter I've seen. I like Takei. He barely makes an appearance tonight, but the single shot of his stony visage as he stares down Hiro in fatherly disappointment is enough to make me willingly decide to forget Sulu for the purposes of enjoying Heroes. Takei is having a resurgence right now, and that is only part of a long and distinguished career. Meet him halfway. If the audience gives him the chance they would give any other well-known face in a new role I expect they will see he can do the character and the show justice.
