My face is BURN
I don’t know who drew this, or where it came from, but it is obviously a drawing of a very unhappy man who’s face is on FIRE. Maybe not even a man, but they definitely have flames all over their face which I can only imagine under normal circumstances would be very UNCOMFORTABLE. It may even explain the person’s dour disposition.
Their right eye seems sorrowful, while their left eye seems disapproving, and their mouth just says “I do not enjoy existence.”
If I were to meet this person in real life I might suggest they find themselves either a cup of water or maybe a bag of flour. I heard somewhere that if you are in a kitchen and you have a grease fire, you should throw flour on it to put it out. Maybe this person’s face is really greasy, I don’t know.
And then again, there is almost something about their face that says, “I am so miserable, even if I DIDN’T have burning fire all over my face I would STILL be unhappy.” In which case I could only shake my head in pity for their tortured soul.
Maybe if they had some hair it would make them feel better.

Cat Foot
I made a cat box out of scrap cardboard and threw a towel in it so my cat can lay down in it.
I keep the box close to my table so that way, when I’m reading, or drawing, or eating food, I can stick my foot in the box and stroke my cat’s belly with my toes. She loves it and it helps her sleep, otherwise she would meow a lot.
It feels all warm and fuzzy, kind of like dipping my toes into a warm bathtub, except it’s just one foot and the water is made of fur.

Chinese Secret Society VS The Illuminati
We here at Space 1026 are just as concerned as the rest of you as to the state of the globe and the truth behind our government’s actions. Who’s really in charge here? What are their real motives??
Well we learned recently that there is hope, an ancient Chinese secret society has come forth and vowed to assassinate top Illuminati figures if they continue to develope race targeted biological weapons!
“They approached me and asked if they could help after I made a speech in Tokyo describing the Bush regimes’ use of race-specific biological weapons.”
“The Illuminati have been warned that the Chinese secret society will not tolerate any more murders. It has also extended its protection to truth seekers in the West.”

I thought we warned you about this
Okay Mr Shawn K Ornhauser, I thought we already warned you about inapporpriate celebrity portraits. Obviously you thought it was a joke and now you are mocking us!
We here at 1026 are serious business, we do not have frivolous minutes or even dozens of minutes with which to piddle away our lives on square-jawed celebrities. We would much rather spend our time adjusting the temperature on the thermostat or making a bag of microwaved popcorn, if we had a microwave. Or maybe possibly going out and buying a microwave.
Please, do not clutter our pristine walls with this inappropriate use of art! We run a clean ship here. You could at least do a drawing of Cindy Lauper.

Staring Therapy Redux
So Staring Therapy was a blast! There were yard sales, there was therapy to stare at, wild performances and 72 versions of Hot Butter’s instrumental song ‘Popcorn’!
Although I don’t have any other pictures to share with you at the moment, here is a picture of Bill McRight taken recently playing dress-up with the leftovers.
For me the highlight of Friday night were the 72 versions of Hot Butter’s ‘Popcorn’. in honor of it I compiled a 6 step list of emotional stages that one goes through when exposed to what must have easily been over three continuous hours of one song.
6 stages of ‘Popcorn’
STAGE 1: At first the song strikes you as a catchy tune and you enjoy it’s upbeat melody.
STAGE 2: Wow! The techno version is awesome!
STAGE 3: Okay, the ballad version of this song is kind of nice, but the repetitiveness is starting to make me aware of my own mortality.
STAGE 4: You begin to realize that the tune is so popular that it has inspired a mind-numbing number of musicians to cover this song in every genre conceivable.
STAGE 5: OH DEAR LORD WHEN WILL IT END??
STAGE 6: Acceptance, once the the panic has subsided and your primal instinct to try and peal off your own skin has gone, you resign to the fact that you have no control over the situation and your ego melts away to reveal a true zen-like state of mind.
If you have a chance this next month, stop by the space to view this fun installation, and although you will not be subjected to the giant pantheon of Hot Butter covers, there is plenty of stuff to look at and buy for a $1.
Big Thanks to our Northern neighbors!

I tried to draw something really awesome today, but this was all I could come up with.
If anyone wants to watch a Herzog flick today stop by the space. Oh, and Pattern Pizza Party is tonight! Sometime around 8-ish so they say.

Unihorny
Here’s another custom 1026 desktop for you voyeuristic computer users. The bear getting the sunshine treatment is by resident artist Bill McRight keep a lookout for his new skateboard graphics (insert pun) soon. And that’s pretty much all I have to say about that.

Wood Will Burn
So Roman’s barbeque was a blast, there was lots of drinking, running around, and bomb-sized bonfires.
You can see some pics here:

Favorite parts of the evening included running around the woods in the dark and trying to catch frogs by the pond.
Thanks Roman for an awesome time!

Inappropriate time spent on celebrity portrait
This picture has been floating around for a little while and it’s been decided that whoever drew it spent way too much time on it. After careful deliberation it was decided that the appropriate amount of time to spend on a drawing of Ted Danson is approximately 10 minutes.
In order to prevent future transgressions the following list has been compiled:
Cindy Lauper – 14 min*
Tony Danza – 8 min*
Lori Anderson – 5 min*
Kurt Cameron – 11 min*
Joey Lawrence – 6 min*
Will Buzzell – 4 min*
*in approximate correlation to career length
