A Few of my Favorite Things!


I still love old things like everyone else.  Some are things that I still think about, what cool and totally sick stuff I liked!  At least then it was kinda warped!

Oh, Man!  Those were some of the coolest toys!  I remember getting the Revell models and putting them together (and Not sniffing the glue) and painting them.  And then they sat, collecting dust until my mother threw them out after I moved out.....Remember Rat Fink? How about these guys?










Those were pretty great. Ed "Big Daddy" Roth, a builder of "Hot Rods" in the mid-50s started drawing 'weirdo shirts' for hot rod enthusiasts in SO Cal, and they became so popular that he became the Father of "Statement" Tee Shirts!  And now you know......his web site is http://www.ratfink.org/main.html


When I started to read at 3 years old, I read primarily two things:  MAD magazine and Doctor Suess books.   MAD has used the great Doctor Suess often in their parodies.  All I read, besides school reading, up until 7th grade, was MAD and Doctor Suess!  I Still subscribe to MAD as I think it is one of the best satire magazines around for adults. 
Happy Birthday, Dr. Suess!


Nice MAD parody!  Combines both! I like!





And now, for some fun: 




































































Since I have a Geography degree, (Magna Cum Laude) I figured I would show my favorite Globe of the World...........Have a Wonderful Day today!

Nice art work!

Peace!

Well now you're writing with some resonant topics! Clearly Amerkia would not be what it is today without the Daryl Starbucks, Big Daddy Roth's and Connie Calleta's. Remember the Hawaiian? He is still around racing cars!

Smock Smock!
