I AM A SHINING BEAM OF PURE LIGHT AND YOU CANNOT STOP ME
Here, YOU Can Have This Song Stuck In Your Head, Too!
Gimme That Old Time Music
I don’t want to give anyone whiplash, but since the last volume of the Green Monkey Music Project, The Unheard Monkey, focused on music that was released 2005 and later, I thought it would be interesting to make Volume 19 of GMMP focus on older music.
Much older music. I would like to only use recordings that are pre-1950. If you have a newer recording of an old song that you would like to include, we can always negotiate, I suppose.
There will be a total of seven participants (six open slots), each of which can select up to six songs.
Sign up for the mix by leaving a comment.
UPDATE:
Participants:
Some Guy
Bubs
SamuraiFrog
Chef Cthulhu
Domboy
Splotchy
Splotchy’s Dad
If Domboy wants to join in, he is certainly welcome (he had expressed interest in an earlier post of mine).
Yes, my dad is joining in on this mix. He is an avid collector of jazz 78’s, and he has agreed to contribute some magical selections this time around.
Another Dormant Splotchy Project Awakens
Lulu sent me some ripping good pics of negative space signage that she took in Bangkok, so I have *got* to post them on The Signage Of Negative Space.
I have been noticing negative space signage in the siesta I have taken from my sister blog (no posts since September of last year!), but just haven’t been documenting them.
I realize that I might have some pictures others have submitted, and will try and publish these soon as well. Hope no one took offense at my little signage vacation.
I Still Want To Do A Comix Week
I was going to do a comics week on my blog last year, where for a week the posts would all be drawn instead of typed, but ran out of time, etc.
I still really want to do this. I have been sitting on a wonderful strip by SamuraiFrog for a long time that I really want to publish.
Anyways, I might again bug the people that said they’d be interested in doing a piece way back when. If anyone new is interested, leave a comment here.
I think it might be better for me not to announce the dates for Comics Week, and instead cobble together enough pieces for publishing. That might take the pressure off anyone who might be interested, but who might not have the luxury of time to complete a comic before some arbitrary date.

Movie Quote Quiz For A Doodle!
Hi,
Here’s a movie quote quiz. The person who gets the most answers right first gets to suggest a doodle idea that I will doodle.
No Googling the answers, please.
01. “Three of a kind, let’s do this!”
02. “Nothing. No matches on prints, DNA, dental. Clothing is custom, no labels. Nothing in his pockets but knives and lint.”
03. “If we don’t deal with this now, soon little, uh, Gambol here won’t be able to get a nickel for his grandma.”
04. “Don’t talk like one of them. You’re not! Even if you’d like to be. To them, you’re just a freak, like me!”
05. “Do I really look like a guy with a plan? You know what I am? I’m a dog chasing cars. I wouldn’t know what to do with one if I caught it.”
06. “You squeezed them, you hammered them to the point of desperation. And in their desperation they turned to a man they didn’t fully understand.”
07. “Because some men aren’t looking for anything logical, like money. They can’t be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.”
08. “Well, you look nervous. Is it the scars? You want to know how I got ’em?”
09. “It’s all there, black and white, clear as crystal! You stole fizzy lifting drinks. You bumped into the ceiling which now has to be washed and sterilized, so you get *NOTHING*! You lose! Good day sir!”
10. “I’m a twenty-year man. I can tell the difference between punks who need a little lesson in manners, and the freaks like you who just enjoy it.”
UPDATE:
Since this was a stinky quiz, anyone who commented can request a doodle.
For Kimizzy: “Ok the doodle I want is one of a sea turtle! I effing love them.”
For Beckeye: “Willy Wonka kicking the Dark Knight in the ass.”
Yes, I Am Still Working On My Movie
I’m being all slow and stuff about it, but I still am working on my movie, Streaking For The Shy.
I did some foley work at my friend Lance’s house — mostly footsteps, rustling clothes, etc.
We are planning on doing car sound effects next weekend.
I’m trying to get my crap together and finish this movie, already.
