Ta very much good sir. I shall look further into you new drawings this weekend. Loving the bike one a lot!

Walt? Walt??? Oh, sorry, I was looking for Walt.

Walt is about halfway done drawing his bleacher creatures, having just sat down with the page the other night. One more session will do, he thinks. He feels terrible about the delay, and he also worries that he won't get to writing as many xmas cards as he'd like to send this year.
My daughter turns 1 on Friday! And then we move into another house on the 12th! Walt hopes his drawing hand survives the labor of the latter task.

So anyway, Douglas Frobisher from Accounts was hiding under his table because his boss, HP Sauck was in a worse mood than ever on account that he had been possessed by a Goumarithian Agle Parasite. Not only does this alter your way of thinking it also gives you tentacles with poisonous barbed things.
Douglas had a plan. He also had a fan and that was part of the plan. A fan plan. Douglas pulled open his drawer and removed the ounce of plutonium he had which was left over from THE BEST CHRISTMAS PARTY, LIKE, EVER, and quickly ignited it with his accountancy breath. He flung it up at the fan just as it positioned itself in direct sight of Mr Sauck. Mr Sauck flung his twelve tentacles up in the air as the flaming plutonium hit him right in the three faces and vaporised him and the entire eastern seaboard in moments.
Douglas got some award or other at the White House later that year but he also got a pretty steep invoice from the contractors.

cheers - there was a longer reply, sent from my phone but it looks like it never reached you. It made reference to the drawing of shoppng trolleys and to grandfathers and wheelbarrows and stuff. Man, there was some great writing in that reply.

Was the reply saved in any sort of 'draft' form? Maybe it could still be sent.

I don't think they do when it comes to sending them via DA

Hello from Burnopfield.
Was going to email but there's been one thing after another. My hands have only just grown back anyway.
How's the young parents? Feeling a wee bit older yet? Man, that'll come, don't worry.
All are well in our hole in the ground. Coughs and colds finally drifting away ... for now.
Draw something soon, please. It's too quiet around here.

Hello to you from Royal Oak.
The young parents are well. I think. For living in the same house, it seems that we don't have a lot of time together. I suppose this is to be expected. Wednesday will be a good one--Sara's day off in the middle of the week. We'll recharge.
Claire sleeps all night for us. Trouble is, we zonk out minutes after she does. This does not make me feel old so much as it makes me notice that I haven't had many waking hours to be pensive.
I like being pensive.
These are not complaints. Only observations.
I'll tell you when I feel old: I feel it a little in my knees, now that I'm spending so much more time so much closer to the floor and the play areas strewn about it. Even a fit body feels that, I guess. But I feel older still when a ten or twelve year old calls me 'sir.'

Yeah the knees take some hammer. I Thought my knee's, and elbows, were pretty solid. Turns out I was wrong. When they move incorrectly on hard services, man that hurts.

oh heck - I think there's a sequel to Dogville and its called Manderlay. Man, that's made my day.

Let me know how I can get a copy of the Baseball doc. Watched Melancholia a couple of nights ago and man did that seem like twenty plus hours. I've now seen two Lars von Trier movies and I hope to never see another.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Haha. The baseball doc, simply called "Baseball," was done on PBS--this network does sell DVDs, but I imagine that they're region specific like any other DVD ...
I've seen one Lars von Trier movie: Dogville. My wife refused to watch it all the way through, and I, having watched all of it, promptly classified it as a movie that I didn't much like but one that was nevertheless interesting / important to have watched. Interesting premise but super depressing.
Even telling Sara that there was a fitting scene of revenge at the end didn't cheer her up.
So ... all the von Trier movies are like that?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Dogville we saw a few years back and it sounded good. I wasn't aware of Lars back then and saw that the cast was amazing. Man, we gave up on it before it was even halfway through. Awful, just awful.
Melancholia was a similar trap only this time it looked glorious and the subject matter very intriguing. This time we pushed ourselves to make it to the end. We wish we hadn't. Again, awful.
Have you read about his movie Anti-Christ? Oh dear. He gets such awesome actors involved too.
Right, Baseball. I will watch that next.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
So, since you tried Dogville, I'll spoil it: Nicole Kidman, betrayed by the one person in town she thought she could trust, fetches her mobster daddy, who arrives in a beautiful old car to burn the whole town down and kill everyone in it with a machine gun, while Nicole watches on. A small catharsis for the viewer, who watches her become a slave up to that point in the film.
I vaguely remember reading reviews about Anti-Christ. Don't know a thing about Melancholia offhand. I've got no opinions there.

You finish that baseball marathon yet? Did the movie The Bad News Bears get a mention? It was on tv yesterday afternoon. These new plush TV sets don't half bring out the cragginess of Walters face.

Oh no, COLUMBO!
Hope all are well in the Mazurek household. Have a great weekend. It's pitch black here at the moment but I can't wait to walk home to the family (Even though I walked into a tree branch last night after seeing a deer in the woods. My face was so cold I didn't even feel it).
Take care, man
Tone

Be careful of those deer. As a man once told me, "A deer can kick your butt faster than you can say 'Jake.'" (He was kind of a hick, but on the matter of deer versus unarmed man, I'll take his word on it.)
