I on Books (ep. 6)

Marisa Demarco [ Tue Mar 24 2009 11:54 AM ]

You can’t judge a book by its dumb pun title. Erin likes a book described as “aching with desire,” Iona Moon by Melanie Rae Thon.

Star: Erin O’Namoon

Guest stars: Kitty mug, cloying yeti

And if you missed the others:

Ep. 5: Real Sofistikashun by Tony Hoagland

Ep. 4: Lost in the City by Edward P. Jones

Ep. 3: The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson

Ep. 2: Caramelo by Sandra Cisneros

Ep. 1: The Other Boleyn Girl by Philippa Gregory

Is that [ Tue Mar 24 2009 12:42 PM ]

the Bigfoot statue currently available in the SkyMall catalog? I was recently on a plane and in the mood for some shopping when I came across what I'm certain is the same piece of artwork. [link]

That is a real sasquatch [ Tue Mar 24 2009 12:56 PM ]

the reader is just very, very brave.
I saw the same SkyMall yeti and had to sedate myself with four buck screwdrivers to tamper the excitement.

$4 screwdrivers - all drinks for me on my last flight were $5 or $6.

excellent use of forced perspective [ Tue Mar 24 2009 2:09 PM ]

That is a real sasquatch
the reader is just very, very brave.
I like how you put it in the background to make it appear small and unthreatening, instead of the towering monster whose nearby presence would reduce most people to paralysis or a gibbering cower. This is a nice thing to do for some of the more sensitive viewers.
The fake chair back behind you (seemingly seamless from the left to the right side of the frame) as well as the foot looking like it's front of your elbow, really adds to the illusion that it's right next to you. This must be digital trickery, but it's so artfully done that you'd never guess it's not real.
A special effects extravaganza!
