Ah! Classing up the joint with some classic Golden Age Illustration artwork, complete with name and date!
Coles Phillips was one of my favorites when I was in college. I'd like to believe I've been rubbing off on you, but I don't think I've shared any of her work with you before.
When you talk like that I know you should be blogging more. I would love that I inspired you to do a post about art from the time period of Phillips. You know a lot of cool things.
I'm working on some more blogging right now with my latest "League" post about "Firsts". I'm currently editing my anecdotes on "First Job" and "First Love". Both are kind of long and involved.
I used to do a series of image posts that you likely inspired. I'm thinking of starting that up again soon.
I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.
I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.
I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.
And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.
So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.
Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.
This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.

I thought I owned it to the artists to do these single posts of some of my favorite pieces...like my Klimpt ect.

Batty but stylish!
