Plinth

A bronze statue that you either love or hate

There is a sculpture on the Main Street of my town that many little old ladies hate because he has a public dink. His nickname is Ugly Naked Man and I like the story behind the piece as WELL as the people who lovingly dress him up for holidays/sports.

So this is the valentine card I made for Ryan.

there was cream inside my Cube!! i enjoyed eating it all.

please RT if you've ever enjoyed an edible flavoured cube

A trio of Robert Tinney illustrated magazine covers: Floppy Disk, Software Piracy, Smalltalk Balloon

I wrote a tribute for BYTE Magazine's amazing cover artist, Robert Tinney, who died Feb 1st

Tinney painted 80 vivid and surreal covers illustrating various concepts in early personal computing from 1978-1990, usually airbrushed with gouache. May he RIP ❤️

Are there other cubes that had a Saturday morning cartoon?

I wish I had the talent to draw you styling him

Don't give anything an Emmy until it's as good as this.

I totally stand Craig.

Ok, managed to dig this up. The performance has issues but to be fair the group was pretty tired when we played it: www.plinth.org/starblazers....

My introduction was Gigantor

I did an arrangement of this for brass quintet lo many years ago.

Two pieces of different colored rip-stop nylon sewn together with a serged seam.

I sewed one seam today. It was roughly 3 meters long. #sewing #cosplay #crafting

Everybody knows that Pupper just won Downhill Gold

Two pieces of rip-stop nylon on an ironing board with a pair of scissors on top.

For #cosplay v.next, I cut two pieces of fabric. Mind you, it took several hours, 1/4 of which was spent rethreading my serger. The rest was making sure that the cut lines were bang on the money. #sewing #hobbies

A half of a raspberry pączki on a plate

There's a decent sized Polish population in my area so the local grocery store sells pączki right before lent. I'd never tried one before so I got a couple.
I can't tell what is supposed to distinguish it from a typical jelly donut. Was it a good pączki? I don't know.

A food court receipt with "order number: 007"

"Do you expect me to talk?"
"No, I expect you to dine!"

Oddly enough, one of my relatives gave me one of his limerick books as a 13th birthday gift. Even at that age, I thought they were creepy and just not entertaining.

In a scene from "The Trouble With Tribbles," a giant mount of Tribbles has just fallen from a hatch on station K-7. Nilz Baris and Spock look at each other as Sweetums (of the Muppets) pops out of the tribble pile holding a grey tribble in his left hand.

Generally, yes. One adage is that you blow through a trumpet but you blow into a cornet (and moreso a flugelhorn).

Seen at Costco. Disappointed that they didn't go with "eat our balls". #wtf #wtaf

There weren't a lot of hard requirements beyond "you must complete a major". I made a point of talking to people who were not in CS and asked what the best intro or 200 level class was in their majors and put them on my list of "if you have space". Totally worth it.
