Cantina Band Time

Some days the office is just a little geekier than others. Today is one of those days. I'm about 20 minutes in… to this 10 hour marathon!

Sci-Fi and Superheroes of the 70's

Okay, I am officially loving on artist Dusty Abell at deviantART. My entire childhood is in this picture. I'm actually getting a bit misty eyed seeing some old friends in here that I haven't thought about in years! There is also a 6957×2646 size image at the link below.

Artist Quote (from the link below):
I hope I included a favorite of yours along with all the rest of the coolest bunch of characters to hit a television screen in an age, enjoy my friends!

Star Trek Awesome Sauce!

Wow. Artist Dusty Abell at deviantART deserves MAJOR props for this Star Trek image! Visit his link for a 6000×9119 downloadable version, plus a link to a key for everything in the poster. Once again, simply, Wow.

Quote from the Artist (from the link below):
I've included at least one, sometimes more, character, entity, starship or structure from every episode of the original series, 80 in all including the pilot, in this piece. I hope Trek fans enjoy this as much as I did making it, I'm pretty proud of it.

Dave Palmer Star Wars Art

Thanks to +Gary Sone for posting the pic of Boba on the scooter earlier this week. I found out it was created by artist Dave Palmer (special thanks to Google image search). I found a few other Star Wars images on his site I also thought were pretty cute. If you like them, make sure and go show him some love! 😉

Frozen Burrito Caravan

Box truck broken. One pallet needed from off-site to fulfill order. Logical thing is take +Keith Cramer and +Scott Cramer vehicles to large cold storage facility and load them Apollo capsule tight with cases of frozen burritos and mini tacos. Ah, the aroma of damp cardboard and thawing Mexican food.

This was actually after we used the forklift to pull the box truck forward from it's parking space so we could try to jump-start it's dead battery. One of the warehouse guys left the jumper cables attached when we tried to stretch them to the car, though, and pulling the truck forward, it caught under the tire and we ripped off the negative gator clip. Oops. Reminder to self, buy new cables for Maria in the packing room. Clamped on the bare wires and proceeded to try the jump-start but it would barely turn over and we were running out of time before offsite facility was closing for the day. Plan B. Gypsy caravan. 😉

Now back to laptop Windows 7 rebuild. And G+. Of course.

Crochet AT-AT

From Soggy-Wolfie on deviantART comes the more cuddly side of the Empire! 😉 Hey, +Mellie B, are you up to the challenge?

From the link below:
An 8 Inch tall crocheted AT-AT ^_^
Inspired by the video AT-AT day afternoon by Patrick Boivin and James Hance's drawings of Star Wars in Winnie the Pooh style ^_^
This one took me 3 days to complete. He's stuffed with scrap fabric and has bags of lentils in his feet, and he likes cuddles….^_^

Go Maggie! Rawr!

Fall's BIGGEST rating! I meant to post this earlier in the week after watching The Walking Dead premiere. Loved it! And this picture of Maggie is fierce. Better watch out Glenn! 😉

From the link below:
The third season premiere of a basic cable zombie drama just delivered a bigger rating in the adult demo than any entertainment series this fall — including all broadcast shows.

And AMC accomplished this rating with an extra disadvantage — not having one of its major distributors, Dish Network, on board due to its carriage contract dispute (imagine how many more viewers the episode might have had with Dish). And of course that’s aside from AMC’s other major disadvantage of being a cable network that’s only in a fraction of U.S. households compared to the Big Four broadcasters.

Firefrog!

The Avengers in the style of Winnie the Pooh that I posted (http://goo.gl/ufJzY) prompted me to go check out what James Hance has been up to. He has some wonderful art mashing up Star Wars and Winnie the Pooh that you should check out. While on his site, I found this Firefly / Muppets mash-up! Love it!

Cat's Eyes

Less an optical illusion and more cool typography. Either way, I like it.

Thanks to +I'm an "Engineer" for the post.

Disney Princesses as Doctor Who

Another wonderful mash-up from artist Amy Mebberson. I've been on a Doctor Who roll lately. I'll exhaust my open tabs soon and be on another kick, I'm sure. 😉

Firefly Big Bang Theory Mash-Up

Artist Megan Levens created this awesome mash-up. It would be a… very different Firefly crew if you went by personalities to the characters she matched up. I'd love to see a "dream sequence" dedication to Firefly on Big Bang Theory. 😉
