Coffee with Alana Taylor

I can’t begin to explain how...

This is my last demented post from the lovely people at Instructables.com, if anyone is interested in a Bratz Cutting Board this is for you.
For all those into mouse taxidermy and the codependent saps that want to take that operation to a new and exciting level (eek!), Instructables’s Mouse Mouse project is for you. Basically it combines nature (taking a sweet innocent mouse) with technology (taking a computer mouse) and joining them together as in a mouse inside a mouse, just in case you were looking for some extra office...

I do not have a fucking Twitter!!”) Well, I have a “fucking Twitter” now. And guess what? I was wrong. Which just goes...
Here is my favorite interview with ‘Manties’ and the man who sports them. James Jacobs the author of True Confessions of a Fanboy illustrates his life as a die hard Fanboy. Take a look at the video and website for more information on this somewhat odd and endearing way of existence.

Just in case you missed last weekend’s Comic Con in NYC, I bring it to you (in an untimely massively late fashion). My editing leaves me feeling more than annoyed, so I am posting this in hopes you chalk it up to yet another crazy video made by MA.
