It's a Tommy Gun!

Just downloaded my photos from my phone onto the PC - and have to share my first attempt at the creation of a balloon animal:

Balloon Giraffe
I shall call him Necky

While I was browsing my phone photos I also found these:

Banana Phone
I walked onto the train - and it looked to me like this guy was talking into his banana-phone (his actual mobile was in his other hand)

Dead Carebear
This is what it looks like when a small Care Bear is doused with metho, lit and kicked around a backyard for a while

Comments:
a banana mobile would be sweet.

also, what'd that care bear ever do to you?

 

I'm reporting you to the Royal Society for the Protection of Cruelty to Care Bare's!

Also, with all this posting you have been doing of late you should re-name your blog: The Sporadically Updated Blog might be more appropriate.

 

NatMac - this might have to do: Link

And as for the Care Bear sympathetic sentiment - that bear got what was coming to it. Noone, not even Popples should be able to rip on Rainbow Brite and remain unpunished.

 

Oh - and yeah, sporadic is probably a more accurate description.

I'm sure it will revert to "Rarely" in no time.

 

hey man

sorry - no 'contact me' part to your blog so i will ask you here. can u pls send me your and, if you have it, aarons email address.

ta

 

Replied to your "contact me" area.

 

You need a guestbook!!

Thought you would like this: www.jottings.com/100-oldest-dot-com-domains.htm

ps - can't you comment in HTML on this?

 

Yeah - a guestbook is a good idea. I thought this Blogger site would only be around until I got around to coding my own blog software - but it's joined the long list of projects. As for commenting in HTML - I thought you could. I know it doesn't let you do a img tag - but an anchor tag should work.

And yeah - those old dot com domains are fun to browse through. I actually subscribed to Jotting's blog when I first read it - though that was the most interesting entry they have had since then.

If only I had have registered http://www.ibm.com/ when I was 5 years old!

 

yes - if only. I wonder if the actual companies, or cyber squatters registered those domains. Obviously they are owned by the respective companies now - but i wonder if they had to by them from an individual or an entity. I guess back then the new was all BBS type stuff and domains weren't widely used?? In 1985 the only web I was aware of was owned by an arachnic going by the name of Charolotte.

As for tags - i think you can do it here, I'm just not HTML compliant enuf to do it yet.

 

Yeah - you'd have to think it was the actual companies. Back then - there was no such thing as cybersquatters - the web just wasn't known well enough.

I'd also assume that registering a domain name would be extremely expensive, considering there were a select few people that actually used the web.

Did a quick google - but can't find anything on the history of cybersquatting.
