why I love the internet.....

Some days I get online, read my favorite blogs and don't find anything inspiring. Today is NOT one of those days. Not only are there dozens of news stories challenging the ill-presented lies of the McCain/Palin (it pains me to even type her name) campaign, but my blog reading has also led me on a lovely trip 'round ye ole web filled with flights of fancy. Here's what I found......

Some (yes only some) of the e-politic lovelies:
McCain - John McCain continues his "obvious irritation with the media" campaign strategy.
Palin - it's a bit surprising that this actually made it into the arena of what is usually serious political information...but who can take the McCain campaign seriously at this point?
Palin - CNN shows just exactly what kind of foreign policy experience Gov. Palin has with Russia (you know, since she can't seem to clearly answer that question herself....)
Palin - refers to the general population as "Joe Six-Pack". Surely that phrase is going to help mend the reputation of the US in the eyes of the world.
VP debates - how both VP candidates are prepping for the debate tomorrow night (oh how I love when non-candidates debate on the news!)

My desk wants these:
Typing toy
This adorable ferris wheel will spin at the speed you type. Just think, if you and your cube-mate had one you could type-race! ha!




Pc-ez-bake want to make goodies for your office? Or maybe bribe your boss with sweets? now you can use company property to complete these tasks! On a serious note, I'm wondering how safety codes would allow any office to have an easy bake oven attached to a computer....it has to be a fire hazard.


I want these:
Lillyella I can't keep looking at Lillyella's etsy. I've already mentally bought half of the merchandise there....it's just so lovely and ridiculously affordable.







Cover If I didn't have two cats who alternately jumped on me once they heard my alarm go off I would totally get this tantrum throwing alarm clock. It starts by glowing 5 mins before your alarm is set to go off you then have one minute to hit snooze before it explodes into a full on, arm waving tantrum.





Ruffles ktjean makes some seriously gorgeous skirts. I'm kicking myself for throwing away my fabric scraps now!

Jenart: catering to bands

Nogoknow


After a lot of free design for friend's bands and making the posters for Paper Brain's shows I have decided to put my skills to the test and offer my design services to local bands! Check out my portfolio and friend me on myspace!

Moss Art

This is a clock made out of living moss! I want to try this so bad, but the recipe for making the "spray on" moss is supposedly difficult to master.

I Met the Walrus


I'm sure a lot of people have already seen this, but how amazing to be 14 and to get an interview with someone you idolize. The animation is also fantastic. I love the background.....it sounds so busy and chaotic.

I need these...

Paper Brain is in the studio. That equals hours of time spent in one room with very little to do....other than listen to stuff. Tonight I spent my hours surfing the web. In all my surfing I found a "real" bigfoot, lots of cute shoes and these lovely, wonderful, amazing tabletop items from Lama. If it was humanly possible I would have hearts in my eyes.

Will the real Iron Man please stand up?

_fanmande_armor_4_
It's really hard to believe but this Iron Man suit was made by a fan. Apparently crafted from fiberglass and said to be exactly like the suit in the movie. amazing. [via My Disguises]

The Die Line is a packaging design blog. Who can resist Japanese packaging?! Why don't people here make matches with panda faces on them?

Dollar Store Dreams

The latest craftster challenge is to create something exclusively from dollar store finds. You are not allowed to spend more than 10 dollars. I'm seriously amazed at what people have made...here are some of my favorites:
