Today Bebe walked in the door and her conversation seemed to be all bomb related.  Please don’t be concerned, the present she just left me is not truly an incendiary.  It is popsicles.

With all the news about airport security she wasn’t too fazed when there was a delay on the MBTA.  She didn’t hear any announcements but noticed a strong police presence, with dogs to boot.  She and the commuters next to her assumed it was a threat of some kind but could not find a hint of it on the local news or on the news websites.

My curiosity peaked and I turned to Twitter.  Voila!

Another day, another way to find your local news.  Or to prove that you’re not just making up a story for why you’re late!

Finally, my Humanoid has uploaded some beautiful pieces of artwork. As in me, of course.

Many months ago, HT got her timing right (this is very rare) and started following Chris Eliopoulos (Cartoonist i.e. Misery Loves Sherman) on Twitter in time to get a drawing done.  Since she was able to get anything drawn, naturally she chose me.

“Not that I had a choice, I really wanted to ask if he could draw a reflexology treatment.”

Boring and stop squinting.

“I can’t help it, it’s from all the ocular eye shots I’ve been taking lately. Anyone have any eye shots they’d like to share so my poor beady eyes can take a break?”

What happened to your last victim? I mean volunteer?

“They went blind.”

Ouch, I hope you have liability insurance. Back to my beautiful pictures, here is a sample of some from very gifted artists.

 anonymous (until we find out what he wants to be known as.  eL drawings today the Louvre tomorrow)

“I especially like these…
It captures one of my favorite fantasies.”

EVIL!! Now I’m going to tell you the Primeval spoiler…

“More eL pictures coming as we type. Have you seen her about? Let us know or drop your clean link in the comments below.”

How come you always get to say the legal mumbo jumbo?

“Now who’s sulking?”

Friday Follow for the last week in May!!

That doesn’t mean anything special though, sorry.
Here’s a list of one new, but many tried & true Twits who she enjoys reading about.
Eliza isn’t nit picky but here are a few reasons why she will follow you.
You’re funny (whether you’re trying or not, doesn’t take much to make HT giggle)
You’re useful(you know something that eL doesn’t)

“Ouch!! But it’s true Eliza! I thought you couldn’t bite.”

Back to the List
You’re helpful (i.e. linkage!!)

“I love that word, makes me think of Pauly Shore… okaay, I’m focused.”

You’re chatty
She has a MUCH longer list but lets highlight a few great Twitters you should check out.

Just a quick FYI on Cameron Laird, photographer out in Townsville, Australia. He’s running a contest right now which I found through @Problogger on Twitter.

Yes, I’m posting this to tell you that he is a commercial and editorial photographer so hopefully I’ll win the camera he’s offering but also because his pictures are juicy, mouth watering and fulfilling. Sorry I got distracted by the Watermark Restaurant Album.

Here’s his blogger site and click on his name above or in the Link list to check out some of his work.

Off to go eat steak and eggs, sans the steak.
