redo

so i've redone the lost photos.

timo.

smithy and timo.
i'm still deciding on an eye color for timo. but he's the exact shape i was aiming for. i had no pattern so i was just sculpting him more or less so there was a lot of pulling out of stitches and redoing. i'm quite pleased with myself i must say.

friends from the future

smith and jones. friends.

word of the day

SLANGUAGE
totally makes sense but it strikes me as redundant. like the infamous bushism "misunderestimate."

in the news

when i wake pretty early in the morning i watch bbc world news america. i find i learn all sorts of things that i feel i should know about but don't.
apparently the OECD (organization for economic co-operation and development) forum 2008 begins today. ok. whatever. but as it turns out, combating climate change in the face of worldwide economic slowdown is a major theme of the Forum. better still, Secretary-General Angel Gurría seems to be a man with a clue:
"We don't have to choose between saving the planet and not saving the planet; that's not a choice...The cost of doing the right things, of taking action, is a fraction of the cost of inaction."
wow. it's almost like we're not going to hell in a handbasket.
