Needle Sized Art (and more)

…I started writing this last night but my server conked out on me before I finished. Thank God for autosave…

I received a link to this video and I just wanted to post it right away.

 

Needle Sized Art
Very incredible story! Not only is this mans art cool but he got a ton of cash for it!

 

Isn’t he amazing? I know there is an artist in the Philippines who makes miniature paintings on rice grains. They would work well together, wouldn’t they? 🙂

American Chopper is on TV tonight, it’s a rerun of their Lance Armstrong special. I’ve seen that episode several times and yet I watched it again from start to finish. I heard somewhere that Lance is going out of retirement to ride for the Tour of France again, is that true? When will that be?

Anyway, since I’m not a 100% back yet, I’ll be calling an early night tonight. Alfred, because he was out drinking from 10AM to 6PM, is already sleeping. I think he did go to bed right away because he knew I was really upset that he was out that long. I mean, I can understand going out for drinks with friends, and that it was someone’s birthday, but eight hours? It’s just ridiculous.

Before I turn in though, let me just show you previews of wonderful kits I’ve downloaded today from the Project Sunshine Galleries of the Sunshine Studios. You have to register though before you can even see the previews and the links to the downloads. Register at the Forum first, and then head on to the Gallery and look for Project Sunshine. 

Aren’t they lovely? Go go go check them out!

Now I’ve got a question –  what exactly are Fig trees? I’ve heard of figs and even ran a search on them but I just can’t imagine what figs really are. You know, how they taste like and all. Are they eaten as is? Are they made into jam or maramalade? Do fig newtons actually come from figs? 

Sorry for this question that seemed to have cropped up from nowhere. I was just channel surfing and I caught fig trees being mentioned in one of the shows. Hehe. 🙂

Anyhoo… I saw Drew Barrymore in Never Been Kissed just now. What a cute movie! Proms aren’t as big here in the Philippines as it is in the US but I sure would love to get a second chance at my own prom. Haha!
