No “2,000 words or less” so far this month; I just haven’t felt like saying much. Blah. This is awesome; it’s an extended version of Jason Segel’s “Dracula’s Lament” song from “Forgetting Sarah Marshall,” a movie combining the awesomeness of vampire musicals with the hotness of Mila Kunis. It’s really one of the great movies [...]
Lego Gaga #1, originally uploaded by AndyBartlett. I completed my first Lego Gaga drawing. Fun. It’s an OK debut; I’m not super-happy with it. The eyes are a mess and the solid black outfit didnt’ turn out as well as I hoped. But, I think it’s a pretty solid effort for my first time out. [...]

So, I’ve often wondered if there was a way for me to keep the same sort of RSS feed list on my laptop that I have on my work iMac without phsycially subscribing to all the feeds in both places. I don’t have a huge list of subscriptions – 65 or so is all – [...]
