I was amazed to discover they're from a song on "Stand Up", an album I must have once known by heart.<br /><br />Which only goes to make the same point, I suppose. Forty years is a very long time...<br /><br />MikeMike C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11279776665185060446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6096844366367766843.post-24938166080650954502013-02-20T21:26:06.386+00:002013-02-20T21:26:06.386+00:00"Could be soon we'll cease to sound,

We made them in woodwork, and it sat in pride of place in their living room for 40 years, despite its hideousness.<br /><br />MikeMike C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11279776665185060446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6096844366367766843.post-65992866008525070672013-02-20T20:00:02.136+00:002013-02-20T20:00:02.136+00:00Zouk, eeyorn,

(as the other Mr. D said, "it ain't dark yet, but it's gettin' there").<br /><br />MikeMike C.https://www.blogger.com/profile/11279776665185060446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6096844366367766843.post-77906912184014043242013-02-20T18:41:29.751+00:002013-02-20T18:41:29.751+00:00While clearing out my father's house in Decemb...While clearing out my father's house in December, I came across a mosaic-tiled table lamp along with a wooden football rattle tucked away at the back of the garage. They were the sole attempts of mine in the field of the manual arts. Both got consigned to the dump.<br /><br />I don't recall you being into Death Metal imagery, or engraving, for that matter - when were these done?<br /><br />The challenges thrown up by the body in advancing years are worrying, aren't they? I'm currently doing a very creditable Aqualung impression.<br /><br />eeyornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15933757489269873196noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6096844366367766843.post-65621547083702765682013-02-20T14:55:21.071+00:002013-02-20T14:55:21.071+00:00"all done with bones and tendons"
Also,..."all done with bones and tendons"<br /><br />Also, did you know the 2nd and 3rd fingers share a muscle, so can't be moved completely independently?<br /><br />That TotenTänzer is definitely going to have trouble with his/her spine later in death, don't you think?<br /><br />Thanks for showing us some of your old prints. Any chance of seeing some old cartoons sometime?Zouk Delorshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07983226210415857258noreply@blogger.com
