Holy Buttons & Beans!

Something so so official came in the mail the other day (one of those days that mail comes) . . . and I am so giddy about it that I figured I would let (let) you know . . .

And the officiality is that my little website is all kinds of copyrighted – uhm – written – ahhhh – yeah – there is a copyright . . . so now I can finally go and get one of those awesome “©” tattoos that I have always dreamed of (but not really).

I looked and looked on the U.S. Copyright website for any mention of my copyright . . . but there was nothing to be found. Oh well – at least I have a nice piece of paper to look at.

My iPhone (call) Review.

I have been sitting on this for a couple of days now – trying to really make sure to get to how I actually feel about this whole thing – and make sure that I don’t foist a knee jerk reaction – upon you guys – who certainly don’t deserve anything less . . . and have now decided that it is the time to drop my hat into the iPhone (call) review pool.

And – for the record – this will be my last post (barring something truly significant – that is) about the iPhone . . . you got a cartoon – and a review – and that is plenty.

A couple of days ago – I was like a little bear cub . . . with no water or food to keep me going . . . I was lost in a forest (world) where people (that I knew) had iPhones – but (through the fault of tough tough activation) who weren’t calling me back. And then my phone rang.

Right off the bat – I have to say that the way that the iPhone made my phone ring was slightly different (I would even hazard to say slightly more angelic) than my phone has ever rung. But that could never prepare me for what would happen when I answered the call.

I don’t want to point to crazily significant things in the history of the world . . . but when I said “Hello” to the number that I didn’t recognize (because the person had to get a new number – because (potentially) AT&T is as (potentially) evil as the iPhone is (so so) good) even my voice sounded better – more confident – less warbling (than normal). It had to be like when lightning struck a tree – and man “discovered” fire (for the record – I’m not really sure if that is how it happened or not) – or like the time in history – where people learned that “killer” whales could be trained to do wonderful – and splashy tricks . . . it was just that great.

When the voice replied – it was my pal Clunky (he is totally a robot) – I could totally tell that the proximity sensor knew that it was close to his face – so that the screen was off – and the accelerometers were ready for him to be done with the call – so that they could do their “flipping the screen” job. Basically – it was a minute and a half call where people were high-fiving me, stuffing dollars down my shirt pocket and a chef appeared out of nowhere to give me a slice of my favorite egg custard from S&S Cafeteria . . . the phone call was that good.
So – I’m not sure what is going on with all of the iPhone haters out there – who are still lost in the forest – with nary a berry to eat . . . but – perhaps – if they just took the time to receive a call from one of these miraculously magical devices . . . then the(ir) world would be a better place.

Roll away little bear cubs . . . roll away. There is lightning in the skies – tonight . . .

Straight to the news . . .

Here is CCATV’s (Coffee Can Alley TV’s) big expose on the new hot product from around the land . . . however – it is a smidge of a bit light for an expose – so perhaps – we should call it more of “some of that hard hitting reporting like only a cat and a heart guy can bring you!”

Hope it helps – the world – kind – of . . .

A Logo – watch out – a logo!

Here is a logo that I made for an (E)Xtreme Fighting League – thing . . . it is unlike anything else that I have ever done . . .

Oh – and it is hard to screenprint too – found that out a bit late . . .

mmmmmm – fighting!

Update #28

Today – I went to a Doctor.

Having insurance is nifty – because – evidently – you can go to a Doctor – and isn’t (too) expensive. My only problem would be the amount of papers that have to be filled out – I not too good at filling out papers – unless with jokey answers – for instance – today there was a slot that asked if I had any ongoing illnesses . . . and I wrote “I’m not sure – but would always tired be considered an ongoing illness?!”

Yeah – I know – hilarious.

Anyway – the real fun happened when (and should have mentioned that I was at a dermatologist) I was told that I am full of atypical moles – which isn’t a problem – I guess . . . wait – wait – the real fun was where the Doctor asked if anything was bothering me. I have this mole on the back of my head – right on the hairline that gets attacked every time I get a haircut – and so I asked about that one. He was like “Well it seems okay – but if it bothers you . . . then maybe we’ll take it off . . .” and then he trailed off. Normally that is where I say thanks and exit the room. Today – I said “Yeah – let’s get rid of it.”

What happened next was a shot of novicane (a slight stick and then a little burn) – then a scissor sound (bear in mind that everything was happening behind me – and I couldn’t see anything) – and then finally (what amounted to) a soldering gun on my neck.

The whole event (the trip to the Doctor’s office) lasted about 20 (twenty) minutes – and now I get to go back in a few weeks – after they look at what they cut off. I feel a bit off balance – as the right side of my head is missing something.

Hmmmmm . . . I wonder what they will cut off next time?! Maybe my (left) pinkie – it has really been getting out of sorts lately.
