Transportation
I will do this man’s TPS reports for nothing. Honestly. Tim Lawrence of Cinema Vehicle Services.
BMW’s plug-in sports car is due in 2013. I wouldn’t even consider an electric sports car. Unless of course they bring this one out with the highly hallucinogenic camo paint scheme intact.
T‑Shirt of the week. Do good and look cool. Support the Bultaco effort in Dakar. Okay — it’s one crazy Spaniard — all the more reason you should give a little. A bit on the crazy Spaniard.
Totally sweet little Gilera. The whole story of Morton’s Gilera TS — start to finish with 100s of pictures and commentary in at least 3 languages.
Art, Images, and Design
I am charmed and little saddened by this sideways creature and the dandelion puffs.
Squirrels kinda freak me out. They twitch too much and are always scolding. But I’m glad I got to see all of these because I was reminded of a couple of my favorite illustrators.
A wry detail or two makes these cartoons perfect. Daan Botlek.
Animation
Old school cartoons still have a magic that the newest all digital stuff can’t touch. For example this great telling of the Shooting of Dan McGrew. Most of the story is told by the backgrounds. Enjoy the 6 minutes of high culture and then crawl around the other links to soak up more of Walt Peregoy’s work.
keep calm and carry on (it’s just a little snow)
