The Stowaway
Some people say when you die you walk toward a light. Not me. The day I died I rode toward the light at the end of the tunnel aboard a steam-powered locomotive. I didn't know where I was going or how I'd gotten there, but I knew I was dead… Click here to read the full story…

The Hole

When the United States Navy found the crushed remains of a deep-sea vessel west of the southern tip of South America in 1997, the first thought was Russian aggression. It would be nearly fifty years however before they knew the truth, that the destroyed submarine had in fact come from the future and that the crew…  Click here to read the full story…

Reminder: DOG / FINLAND due tomorrow, 2pm

Well folks, it’s almost that time… the time where we share this week’s art work submissions for the crazy words that last week’s winner made up, or randomly chose, or asked two completely unrelated questions to two completely unrelated people and submitted both one word answers to the blog.  However you slice it, this week is almost over.  So now’s a great time to come up with a concept or two for this week’s tremendously satisfying random words: DOG / FINLAND.  So click that mouse, or draw that drawing, or sculpt that sculpture… what ever it is you like to do, just do it!  We’ll see you back here tomorrow around 2pm-ish, sound good?  Ok, bye bye now…

And this weeks winner is…

With a dog walloping 56.3% of the vote this week, give it up for Andrew Johanson!  Andrew, you must come up with 2 random words that will be due this Friday by 2pm.  Incidentally that is also when your submissions for DOG / FINLAND are due.  So start thinkin like a finish puppy… we look forward to seeing everyone’s submissions this Friday.

Hello strangers. Jackalope / Lantern due Friday.

Just thought we would remind you about the art challuunge.  We’re still here, we just took an extra week for Jackalope / Lantern because we got pretty lazy last week.  So what do you think?  Have you put any thought into a submission?  You know, we wouldn’t even get upset if your submission had nothing to do with the words, but I bet that you would feel much better about it if you let some creative juices flow.  See you tomorrow around 2-ish?  Sounds good to us.

Jackalope / Lantern extension

You’re getting an extra week for Jackalope / Lantern, folks.  Why?  Well because sometimes we get lazy.  We’d call it a snow day but all the snow melted off by noon… so that doesn’t really fly.

See you next week!

It’s midweek, any ideas for Jackalope/Lantern?

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, it’s midweek already?  It seemed like just the day before yesterday it was the beginning to this wonderful 1st week of spring… oh, you say it was, do you?  Well, in that case, have you started to think about any ideas for this week’s words: Jackalope / Lantern?  Maybe this week will be the week that we have someone submit a photo submission?  Maybe this week will be the week that we have a quick dry cement sculptor join the pack?  Or maybe, just maybe we will have some one that has never even thought about doing a weekly art challuunge snog back a few Yoo-Hoo®s, get a wild hair up their what-say-you and decide to throw down their best interpretation of this week’s “challuunging” art challuunge words.  You never know… crazier things have happened in this topsey-turvey world we live in.  So get on out there and do what you do… and hopefully that includes squeezing in a submission for the art challuunge from time to time.

Brain / Craft results are in…

 

With 50% of the vote, congratulations: Danny Devine! 

You have until this Friday to submit two random words.

Don’t forget this week’s words, due this Friday:

Jackalope / Lantern
