    Those damn bookcases couldn't hold up a fly speck if they had to, could they!

    I hate you Wal-mart, and your crap furniture. I'm going to IKEA.

    Outnerded, yes. You've outclassed me though.

    My place lacks Sakai sketches.
    true. I kill you on the scotch and the original art :p

    Do you have more scotch or just better scotch?

    I didn't think I was killed there!

    I finally have some pics of my Nerd Home. So far the nerdishness is confined to the basement area.

    Click the links and enjoy!

    My Toy Shelf. This is just a small sample. I need more shelving!

    Battle Damage He Man!

    A Cylon!

    Monkeys!

    I made the Flash / GL / Jessie Quick figures. The little boat guy is another toy I made.

    Titanic Bot!

    Tiny Teddy, my brother made the crutch. This sits by my fireplace.

    Top of the Computer.

    MY Bar

    Another angle of my bar

    Kiss Myself!

    My Little Liquor stash

    My Comics

    2 JH Williams Prints I bought in SDCC in 1999.

    Dr Danimal is my favorite piece. My friend and old roommate Chris made it for me.

    My Cats, upstairs in the window.

    The bar is mine to decorate. I want so much to re-do it so I can display more comics and toys and liquor than I do now.

    I want to put shelving along the back for glasses and booze. The fridge we bought for back there is so worth it.

    Nice idea. I'd do that if I had the space.

    Remember to put mirrors behind the glassware.

    You know Edna was surprisingly easy to get. Now the Talking Boo doll was a hunt for a while.

    I am most proud of the Hank Scorpio and Stephen hawking Simpsons figures and of course the toys that I kit bashed / Made.

    BTW, the Flash and Green lantern are both made from 12" toy biz Johnny Storm figures. Jesse is made from a 12" toy biz Rogue figure.

    Yeah? Mirrors.. Noted. I really want to tear down the whole bar and start over. The shelving on the inside of the bar side is just unpainted plywood.

    If you do, build it strong enough to withstand a nuclear attack.

    Oh, and build in some secret compartments.

    If I had my druthers I would make the front of the bar with lighted curio spaces for me to display some of my other toys and memorabeilia.

    I have to finish the curio upstairs first. Need to get some custom cut glas shelved.

    I've been emailing back and forth with Guy Davis and he has agreed to trade glass art for original comic art! I'm getting these two pages from the BPRD arc that just wrapped up.



    Recent Nature Sightings:
    Sept 24: Two Orcas close to shore.
    Nov 14: Trumpeter Swans, Bald Eagles catching salmon (and a duck!), Harbour Seals, Steller Sea Lions, Kingfisher.
