Toy: Bernie

"Meet Bernadette, A.K.A Bernie. Bernie was made from a well-worn sock and is turning into a well-worn stuffed animal! Bernie loves to sit and eat goldfish crackers ALL day long. She can be shy at first but once she gets to know you she's quite the motormouth. I have to go, she wants me to throw the goldfish into her mouth so she can catch them!"
- Diane Koss





Show us your dirty wow wow

PS. Mine was the teddy bear Bam Bam. I still haven't had the heart to throw him away so he still lives in a box somewhere.

Toy: Dreamlines

Quoting the excellent Presurfer: "Dreamlines is a non-linear, interactive visual experience. The user enters one or more words that define the subject of a dream he would like to dream."



This is, by the way, where I'm going today. Any guesses?:)


Play around with it for a while and cool images, that would easily pass for art, will appear and evolve on your screen. Go ahead and dream.

Nazi Dolls

"a lot of people in the 'action figure community' are mean to me because some of my dolls are gay."
