sir paul is complete, sans some minor finishing touch-ups. he's just one example of interest in my recent obsession with british pop culture.
and,
to all going to the achak deng tour, i'm beyond excited.

this is a great listen, especially if you know a second language and/or have funny translation stores about being overseas. its an npr segment about poor english translations of advertisements in china.
this is the part where i start to wonder what the heck i'm doing...

these are some google images i found to help inspire my next project. i'm not sure exactly how i'm going to incorporate elements from these photos, but i enjoy each one individually. i need some encouragement to get started. i find myself uninterested in painting lately, which saddens me seeing as how it is typically what i love to spend my time doing. i have a blank canvas sitting on my easel, but that hasn't done its usual trick of motivating me to paint it. ergo, i leave it now to the images below to conjure up my desire to paint.

greetings from sunny
california.
i'm currently in the bay area visiting some family. its been a whirl-wind trip, complete with every travel disaster possible, including lost luggage i still haven't received. oh well.
in other news,
i'm coming home today, hopefully to a warmer
NWA. i heard the weekend weather was brutal, especially to our
vegetation.
if
jesus can raise from the dead, he can bring our plants back to life.

this is great:
"Jesus, the pork chop multiplier" -kent hodskins*
this is also great:
the last half of my shower was spent taking terrible pictures and dancing around in a green bath robe.
*this was in reference to Jesus multiplying the fish and loaves, noting that the Lord at one point had multiplied a pork chop dinner at a missions bible base in mexico that one of kent's old professors had witnessed. but it sounds so funny, like a nickname for Jesus, like Jesus "the pork chop multiplier" Christ. it should go on compston's link list.
