I have lots and lots of images stored to someday share on this blog. But when I go in without a plan and tell myself "post anything, it doesn't matter!", that's when I don't know what to pick and end up taking way too long to select something... So here's what I eventually selected... Enjoy!

The Rabbi's Cat

The Rabbi's Cat
Originally uploaded by ktshanahan

More movie catch-up: The Rabbi's Cat is an interesting film that plays around with ideas of identity, religion and humanity. It's about a rabbi in 1920's Algeria and his cat, who learns to talk when he eats a parrot. It's episodic, but fun. And the rabbi's daughter is one of the sexiest cartoon characters to come along in a while...

National Postcard Week: Los Angeles

Sat, 11 May 2013 17:22:55 GMT

Beth and I just returned from a four-day trip to the LA area (mostly Disneyland). and here are some postcards we got!

Sabertoothed cat (not tiger) skeleton, from the Page Museum at the La Brea Tar Pits.

“We were then shown a very an extraordinarily curious horn which had grown on the back of a woman's head. It was exactly like a horn, except that it was thinner and browner in colour. It is somewhat of a curiosity and it appears that men-folk bear their horns in front and such women theirs behind. It was noted on a label that it originated from a Mary Davis of Saughall in Cheshire an aet. 71 an. Dn. 1688. No doubt it will have been mentioned in the Transactiones Angl., or in the Hist. nat. of Cheshire. The horn was blackish is colour, not very thick or hard, but well proportioned.” The Museum of Jurassic Technology

There is a lot of glitter on this card which does not show up on the scan.

National Postcard Week: Wyoming Maps

Thu, 09 May 2013 06:02:27 GMT

Here's three more Wyoming map postcards (for the previous three, click here)

What is the hunter by LaBarge aiming at? The Worland cow?

It's kinda weird not having the interstate highways...

Wyoming is already shaped like a postcard, so why not take the map all the way to the edges?

National Postcard Week: Frozen Dead Guy Days 2013

Wed, 08 May 2013 06:02:52 GMT

Here's more instant postcards from Frozen Dead Guy Days (see here and here for earlier years). These aren't quite so instant; they are from Friday night's festivities, and I bought them Sunday morning. There weren't any postcards from Saturday because all of Saturday's events had been canceled because of snow...

National Postcard Week: Random

Sun, 05 May 2013 23:46:52 GMT

It is National Postcard Week again, May 5-11 this year. And unlike last year, I plan on doing a postcard post every day this week!

Today's postcards have no theme; they are just three interesting postcards from my collection...

Bought this at Nan Desu Kan 2009, from one of the artists in Artist Alley. There's no signature, but I believe it was Tex Smith. I think this is a great idea for a convention souvenir, and wish it would be done more often...

This promotes a web comic that I know nothing about. I just like the art...

This is a poster for Silas Green from New Orleans, a traveling tent show that roamed the south for over fifty years! It must have been good...
