Pixar's UP

Seems to me, that the new film is a reworked version of Cervantes', Don Quixote - not that, that's a bad thing... 

Synopsis: Carl Fredricksen spent his entire life dreaming of exploring the globe and experiencing life to its fullest. But at age 78, life seems to have passed him by, until a twist of fate (and a persistent 8-year-old Wilderness Explorer named Russell) gives him a new lease on life. UP takes us on a thrilling journey where the unlikely pair encounter wild terrain, unexpected villains and jungle creatures. Pixar’s Up is in theaters, May 29th 2009 - I'm looking forward to this one!

I really like giraffes, but this takes the biscuit...

So, Ms Colleen got a tattoo of a giraffe; but not just any tattoo; a 'dot to dot' tattoo - very cool. Full story and more photos after the jump - Link

Happy Turkey-Day America...

Autumn in all it's splendor

The colors of fall, seen through the lens of my camera - enjoy...

Tip Toland - Melt, the figure in clay

Amazing Work by Pacific Northwest sculptor Tip Toland. The artist's powerful life size figures, show a frozen moment in time; capturing the beauty and vulnerability of ordinary folk - I am in complete awe! One of my favourite pieces is Dive, pictured here. At the Bellevue Arts Museum, until February 8th, 2009.

History has been made

'Yes we can' - Today a dream has been realised; faith has been restored. Write it down - Where were you, when history was being made?

We just live here...

...and they said I couldn't vote: the 2008 Presidential Election site for US Aliens - interestingly, 94% of United Kingdom 'aliens' voted for Obama - sensible people! 

Have a good election day, and make the right choice for                                                                America and the World.
