Prince


SUPERBOWL Rehersal07 - Prince

I love most forms of music, and yes, I admit it: I love Prince. This press conference from a couple of years back proves he's still a powerful force in the universe. I've never seen anything like it. He even funks up the NFL network, no less!!

Bumble Bee




Here are two oil paintings of bumble bees I recently completed. They're each four feet by three feet, which makes the tiny little critters very impressive in all of their enlarged glory. It's the same little fellow in each. He still lives in Montreal, where I found him, but I'm sure he's forgotten me. Fickle little creatures, bumble bees.

Watchmen


After watching the new movie Watchmen today, this little bit of hilarity is a perfect counterpoint. The actual movie was great. I love the graphic novel, and the filmmakers did a great job translating it into a compelling flick. I've read and heard several bad reviews, but those critics can bite me. It was an amazing translation of the original story, and the visuals were mind blowing. All of the characters and plot lines were handled with just the right touch. Plus, I loved to see Kelly from The Bad News Bears acting again, as an adult. Of course, he was great in Breaking Away, but his role in Watchmen was just incredible: a Bad News Bear Gone Bad. Really bad. Bad but good. Really good.
