Kicking it Up a Notch
Aug. 5th, 2010 10:29 amUnlike costumes, I don’t feel I need to hide what I am doing before a big reveal at DragonCon. So I am going to take progress pictures as I go along and post them here.
First Photo

(It is a picture of three “eggs” wrapped in paper tape with what looks like veins all over them)
There will probably be another tomorrow and so on. It keeps me honest about what I got done in a day. If I skip a day it will probably be due to real life things that I need to do that day.
I know that the ruling yesterday is a baby step in a much larger legal picture but I think that the judge thought this one very carefully through and the ruling is very detailed. What is not known is whether this changes anything or is it still in limbo until the next ruling. I am figuring it is going all the way to the Supreme Court.
That being said, I am happy that the judge ruled the way he did. My first response was to e-mail my friend Brad who’s wedding I had gone to before Prop 8 killed the hopes of a lot of people. For a while there was some question if he and his husband were going to be able to stay married which would have been a crime in itself. They had been together for 21 years before they were allowed to get married. I was very happy for them when I was there to witness their wedding and I still am.
OK Work of Art producers, what are the judges smoking? Or how much did Miles pay them or how did he pay them? Yes, I know a lot of it how the show is edited but I have known in my time a number of artists cut of the same cloth and I want to strangle him just about a much if not more than I wanted to strangle them. I find his art boring and pretentious. And his acting skills suck too. He is a performance artist who has over played his hand. However I have the sad feeling that he is going to win it all over Abdi and Peregrine. Of those two, I would have to give the slight margin to Abdi. That last piece was brilliant in use of materials and the art itself.
Anyone besides me still watching Project Runway?
I am grateful that Caroline has slayed her first Dragon on Dragons Lair all on her own.
