tahinietzsche

friedrich nietzsche made from tahini.

seriously, tahini is beyond good (and evil) when it's added to garbanzo beans to make hummus.

oreorson welles

orson welles made from the inside of four oreoes.

sadly, i can never make it through "citizen kane" without falling asleep. i do, however, enjoy rosebud frozen peas.

rachel shaddow

a shadow of rachel maddow.

here's the set up for achieving a maddow shaddow.



i have such a girl crush on rachel maddow and her new show on msmbc! seriously, it's all that i tell leff about when i im him at work. it's all "omg! guess what rachel just said! oh! she just did the eyebrow thing again!"

ceasar chavez

césar chávez made from ceasar salad dressing.

this one works a little bit better if you mispronounce césar chávez's first name. which, if you had to hear a passage about mr. chávez read out loud to you while you were proctoring an oral reading test as i often did, could conceivably occur several times on a daily basis. (sigh...i'm *so* glad that i don't have that job any more.)

this should not be viewed as an attempt to diminish césar chávez's major contribution to both civil rights and organized labor. i wish there were more people like him!

they call me MISTER bibbs!

sidney poitier as virgil tibbs on a dental bib.

a video in case you've never seen "in the heat of the night".

anne and naancy wilson

anne and nancy wilson of heart on naan.

i love these local ladies and have since i was tiny (and not a local of seattle). i swear that it takes me years to get this song (as well as this one) out of my head. aaaaand now it looks like they'll be in my grey matter until at least 2012.

toothpatsy and edina, stephen (ba)king powder and frank black food dye

it's monday, my cold's almost gone and it's time for three new fugitives!

first, it's a toothpatsy and edina.



(patsy and edina from "ab fab" made from toothpaste.)

i still love "ab fab". in fact, i've found that it's gotten funnier over time.

next, it's stephen (ba)king powder.



(stephen king made from baking powder.)

i haven't read any of stephen king's books in a while. (although i used to devour them religiously in high school.) but after seeing "firestarter" again the other day, i think i might pick up one of his older books (like, carrie or cujo) for a quick read.

lastly, it's frank black food dye.



(frank black made from black food dye.)

i saw the pixies play in, oh, 1992 (?) at the alumni gym in knoxville, tn. although that carbon dates me, i don't care. it's still one of the best shows that i've ever seen.
