Little Lulu

Beautiful set on flickr. Awesome retro cartoons, classified according to the sounds they are making.
Lulu is my nickname thanks to the cartoon =P
~rant~
This made me remember that we had a pair of birds when I was little (maybe like 4 or 5 years old) and their names were Toby and Lulu. I also had a little turtle named Mafalda (my favorite comic strip from all time, from Argentina). Which made me think the last pet we had in Venezuela, Bonnie, which we wanted to name her that so eventually we'd get her a partner whose name would have been Clyde. The last two pets I had, was maybe two years ago, and they were two little turtles. They had many different names because I couldn't decide, but the only way I could tell them apart was the line they both had in their heads. One was a little bit longer than the other one, so one of the names I gave them were M Dash and N Dash.
We set Toby and Lulu free.
Mafalda fell down the apartment window 36 floors down (at least that's what they told me when little)
Bonnie passed away when we moved to the states.
Clyde never existed.
M Dash and N Dash passed away after a month of getting them.
yep. no more pets for me. many cool retro cartoons, though. =]

Post-it Art
found the photo at aiga.com and it gave a link to where it was being displayed at.

here's a couple of closer look at the post-its.

do a search of "post it art" in different search engines, flickr, etc. and you'll find a lot of great stuff.
it reminds me of one dream sequence Stephan had in "The Science of Sleep" where he was overwhelmed by the work and a wall in the office was covered with post-its. very cool. i want to make a post-it wall now! =P
