Fantasy Art Strikes Again

Yikes!

Arrr, Me Half-Hearties!

Pirates! Kinda.

The best part of the movie was where I fell asleep.

Hello Stranger!

Not much happening at the moment, Internets. Here's some old junk to keep you distracted.

Cranky ladies!

Wednesday Is Random Photo Day

I gots your Nexus right here, Picard.



Exercise or escape attempt?



Attempting to outrun the alien hordes on bicycles was folly at best.

Fantasy Art = Street Cred

Good with kids, rubbish at hide and seek.

The entry level model was not equipped with seatbelts.
