Same method, different result
The why and wherefore is completely mysterious to me. I just throw some lines and start emphasizing the ones that look like something.
I was just doodling
And this was the result.
If anyone has an idea what is going on in this image, I would love to hear it.

Macaroni Grill Crayons
I was surprised to see that they are real Crayola crayons. (Forest Green, Blue and Brick Red according to my 64-count box,)
Harry Potter is in the air
Someone named happyhufflepuff commented on this blog and I thought maybe I found one of Harry's toys at Value Village:
But then remembered that he graduated from Hogwart's before Bionicle came out and yes I know it's not real because he wasn't allowed toys. Or live in Seattle. But!
If Harry Potter was going to have a muggly TCG, I think he would prefer one featuring amnesiac robot monsters on a tropical isle over D&D seeing as one is fantasy and the other one is Fantasy otherwise it would be something of a workman's holiday sort of diversion, wouldn't it?
MUGGLE TWO: Every freaking time. What are the odds?

INT. BASEMENT Teenagers sit around a card table crowded with books, paper, pencils and Mountain Dew.
MUGGLE TEEN ONE: I've just rolled up a Chaotic good paladin. What are you, Harry?
HARRY POTTER: I'm a powerful wizard with a hidden origin.
MUGGLE TWO: Use the dice, dipwad.
DUNGEON MASTER: Role-play, Harry. Remember what we talked about about how imagination can seem real?
HARRY POTTER: (to dice) Rollio!
MUGGLE TWO: What's that work out as?
DUNGEON MASTER: (checking rule book): Huh. "Wizard. Unknown alignment. Level 12."MUGGLE TWO: Every freaking time. What are the odds?

Salad spinner is clearly awesome ...
... but using one to prep homemade hashbrowns is the best thing ever. Unless it's said in German via Google translate:
Hausgemachte Rösti mit einer Salatschleuder gemacht sind die besten.

4-D Chess?
Referring to newspapers floating the idea of paid internet versions:
As if traditional chess isn't hard enough, let alone 3-D chess. (Mr. Spock notwithstanding.) The problem of dying print news is only as complex as 4-D chess in the sense that it is impossible to visualize. If you are a newspaperman.
To the rest of us, the problem seems more along the lines of attacking Moscow in winter. Sure you can do it, but you will lose everything that matters in the process.
"This is like a four-dimensional chess game. It's really complex," said former newspaper editor Alan Mutter, who is now an industry consultant when he isn't writing "Reflections of a Newsosaur," a free blog.

Major Matt Mason Major Motion Picture Maybe
from the Wiki article about the astronaut doll:

As of March, 2009, there are reports that Tom Hanks is planning to portray Matt Mason in a feature film, possibly as both a human and a toy version, the latter presumably a CGI animation.Ohpleaseohpleaseohpleaseohplease

Cleopatra
Extravaganza overwhelms thin scenario, but it doesn't really matter because the point of this movie is to wrap Claudette Colbert in a thousand yards of silk. At this, it is perfect. Title card is an extended wardrobe malfunction that probably created the Hays Office single handedly. Busby Berkley spectacles are interesting but a trifle silly. War montage is adorably hopeless. Claudette's eyes are bigger than anyone's except a Power Puff Girl.
