I've placed The Sneeze on my regular roation of sites I visit. Yesterday, while killing the last precious minutes of the workday, I read through The Birth of A Robot Painting.
The conclusions I've come to are this:
1. Robots rule. I should continue with my zenbot series.
2. Eric Joyner is a pretty damn cool artist. I should check out more of his stuff and maybe order a print.
3. The low-fat French Vanilla latte from QuikTrip is crap. It's like drinking half & half with 3 tons of sugar in it, and an eyedropper's worth of coffee.
That third one is just a bonus for all of you. I've made the mistake of buying it so you don't have to.

The Sneeze
While I realize that this isn't art and/or craft of my own, I think that the ability to ingest things that you really don't want to is an artform all itself. So while stumbling, I came across The Sneeze which features a hilarious section called "Steve, Don't eat it!"

This year, I decided to make my own christmas cards.I must give credit where credit is due, that the majority of these creatures on here are from an awesomely cool website. This site features the artwork of the very talented Andrew Bell. I suggest you visit it often.
A few of these already have interior sayings, like the "Happy Holidays" one says, "...and all that crap." on the inside.
But if you have any suggestions on what to put inside, please let me know!
Details on the portabar!
As you can see, the bar matches the coffee
table exactly. The two suitcases must have been from the exact same line. Lucky us!
top left: Closed view of the bar.
top right: open view of the bar, fully stocked!
bottom left: another view of the stocked bar. I found plastic flasks at a liquor store to stock the essentials, as well as a plastic shaker. The cutting board, jiggers, and bottle openers (not pictured) are from the dollar spot at Target. (God bless Target!!)
bottom right: Close up view of the side "shoe" pockets being used to hold highball glasses. This secures the glasses in place and allows me to use them for storage of other items for the bar, such as stir sticks and bottle openers.

Details on the coffee table construction
Top left: additional view of the coffeetable.Top right: view of coffee table open. You can see the piece of plywood that is used as a means to hide what is being stored. This plywood can also be placed on top of the table to protect the suitcase.
Bottom left: Interior of suitcase. An I-bar was constructed using 1x2s and liquid nails on the bottom of the suitcase to reinforce it. The holes for the legs were drilled through the wood and the bottom of the case.
Bottom right: Close up view of the additional blocks used to take up the rest of the space on the bolt (on the interior)This was the easiest way to keep the legs the proper hjeight, as well as prevent us from killing ourselves on 4 inches of bolt (band name!) sticking up in the case.
