The title of this hand-drawn open edition card is “Above the Christmas Tree”. Initially this card was intended to represent the view of a Christmas tree from above. The center point is a treetopper star and the circle forms are the tree. My four-year old daughter simply said it was a star. Now there’s some …
I love talking super hero movies. A friend was recently gushing over The Dark Knight and the discussion spilled over into other super hero movies. Here’s my two comments: post oneI had problems with The Dark Knight. Don’t get me wrong, it was a very good movie, but I felt they were trying excessively hard …

Can you believe it’s been over 2 1/2 years since the last Faceoff Friday match? Today Faceoff Friday makes its triumphant return with the battle between two giant architects. Who would win?

Architect, Marcio Kogan, sure has a lot of faith in those columns in his/her/their design for House 6. I want to see Transformers 4 film at this house.

Some items at dollar stores are great bargains as mentioned in my two previous posts for fake Optimus Prime toys, and foam brushes. And then there are items that don’t save you any more money and you just end up with a crappier product. Such is the case with painters masking tape. Home Depot sells …
A few years ago I was able to score this fake Optimus Prime toy at the Dollar Tree. It was made in China and goes by the “brand” name Transformatrix. Where else can you get an Optimus Prime toy, fake or real, for only a buck? Only at Dollar Tree. More photos of this toy …

My first reaction was that he looked just like a Decepticon from Transformers. It turns out that the Moloch Horridus is one …
Last night I had a dream that I was an Autobot. I was with Optimus Prime when he was negotiating with Megatron via satellite feed about freeing some astronauts that the Decepticons held captive on the Earth’s moon. Of course we began to learn this was going to be a giant ambush and Prime and …
