I saw this meme about going to Tim Horton’s in a Canadian snowstorm, that is the part above the black bar, during the snowstorm brewing outside. I immediately thought of a pun reply that i put in the black bar to make a new version. Enjoy! 🙂

K8 (Kate), is a dog robot that is the first member of AIRO (my Artificial Intelligence Robots Order). It was named K8 because it is a K-9 robot. Get it? 🙂

K8’s number in AIRO is 8, not surprisingly.

The Slightly SCANDALOUS Dress

November 11, 2013November 20, 2016Digital Citizen Leave a comment

This past spring, the Atlantic Sewing Guild to which I belong had what was called a Knits Challenge. The idea was to sew something out of knits, preferably one of two McCall’s patterns, McCall’s 5890 or McCall’s 6247, but not necessarily so. The patterns were chosen for the general simplicity to encourage many to try, but also for their versatility as each had a wide variety of pieces. I had sewn with knits before, like with this customized dress from two patterns, so I went with trying a pattern not meant for knits as my challenge. In the spirit of sewing with knits, I would be expanding my range to be able to sew more things with knits should I succeed, meaning I would be sewing with knits more often in the long run as was the goal for everyone to get some more experience sewing with knits.

Hot Business Idea: Piñatas of Hosni Mubarak, Muammar Gaddafi and Other Hated Dictators

February 22, 2011Digital Citizen Leave a comment

Does anybody currently make piñatas of hated dictators like Hosni Mubarak and Muammar al-Gaddafi?

Piñatas are brightly-colored decorations made from a cardboard shape covered with papier-mâché, in case you don’t know what one is. Inside are candies or little gifts which children can get by beating the piñata with a big stick until the piñata breaks open, usually while blind-folded. Each kid takes his/her turn until the piñatas is completely opened up and nothing remains inside.

It’s something I imagine a lot of people like to do to those dictators!

G1 Autobots Wallpaper Gallery 6 (1920 x 1200 pixels)

August 1, 2009March 17, 2011Digital Citizen 3 Comments

I created the wallpapers with the mostly black backgrounds and in series of three across a row all with the same Autobot. The Autobot art came from the Transformer toy boxes, and were obtained from Botch the Crab’s Transformers Box Art Archive. However, I did my fair share of Photoshop magic to get them in the condition you see here, and then did the design on my own.

The G1 Autobots wallpapers in this gallery are 1900 x 1200 pixels. These are also good for some other monitor sizes, though, and the operating system on your computer should know how to scale them properly. There will be no distortion or warping of the images as the other sizes listed just below here are of the same proportion:

1680 x 1050 pixels
1440 x 900 pixels
1280 x 800 pixels
960 x 600 pixels

These wallpapers can be found in other sizes via the links below:

1024 x 768 pixels (also good for 800 x 600 and 640 x 480 monitors) — 62 wallpapers
1280 x 960 pixels (also good for 1152 x 864 monitors) — 52 wallpapers
1280 x 1024 pixels — 48 wallpapers
1440 x 960 pixels — 48 wallpapers
1600 x 1200 pixels — 44 wallpapers
