[12:31] Jason: that'll blow people's minds
[12:32] Jason: wait. that's basically a glove
[12:32] Jenni: no no
[12:32] Jenni: well i mean you could go the hamburger helper way
[12:32] Jason: i'm listening
[12:32] Jenni: or you could do a puppet that looks like i giant hand balled into a fist with a face drawn on it
[12:32] Jenni: that's metameta
[12:33] Jason: or a jeff dunham puppet
[12:33] Jenni: it would have to have a mustache
[12:33] Jason: that controls other puppets
[12:33] Jenni: that's deep but can you throw your voice in that many directions


As Jason likes to say, "Get 'er Dunham. That's a freebie."

Up, Up and Away Art Show

Halloween is coming up, but before your senses get overloaded with sweet candy and naughty outfits for every random vocation under the sun, take in some culture by visiting Monkeyhouse Toys in Los Angeles. This Saturday from 5pm - 9pm is the opening reception for Monkeyhouse's group art show, "Up, Up and Away," which, believe it or not, has nothing to do with the Balloon Boy. Instead, it's a superhero-themed show, and here's a preview of my painting of The Thing:

"Clobberin' Time"

R.I.P. Captain Lou Albano

You know who's a dick? OK, fine, John Gosselin, yes. But you know who else? The year 2009 is a dick. This year has killed more than its fair share of celebrities, and 2009 has just taken its toll on another star.


R.I.P. Captain Lou Albano
Wrestling Superstar, Music Video Dad, Captain, Rubber Band Enthusiast, Super Mario
July 29, 1933 - October 14, 2009

(This Mario is a Mighty Mugg I customized for Jenni's birthday.)

This morning, Captain Lou Albano died at age 76. Some of you may know him from the "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" music video, where he played Cyndi Lauper's dad who asks her what she's gonna do with her life. Others may know him as a celeb from the World Wrestling Federation. Or maybe you know him as a dude who rubber-bands his beard and dresses like every day is Aloha Friday. If you're Hands in the Air, then you have fond memories of Captain Lou portraying Mario on The Super Mario Bros. Super Show.
