Recent Distractions
  Here's what has been keeping me from drawing alot recently.  If you need to limit your own productivity,  and just distract yourself for some time,  i recommend all of these.
   DISCWORLD Novels by Terry Pratchett.  I spent a good part of the weekend reading his latest,  Monstrous Regiment.   Great story.  Introduces a new region of the disc, and a slew of new wacky characters.  Wm DeWord, from Pratchett's earlier release, The Truth,  makes a return appearance,  and Commander Vimes and Sgt Angua of the Ankh-Moorpork Watch have small roles.
    Mystic River.  Saw this film this afternoon.  Loved it.  I see a lot of Oscar nods, particularly for Sean Penn, Laura Linney, and Clint Eastwood, for both score and direction.  Maybe even Tim Robbins.
     Thrift Store Record Shopping.   Today I found a couple spoken word/advice records by Dr. Murray Banks.  Funny stuff.  Also records by Carl Reiner and mel Brooks,  George Burns and Gracie Allen,  a National Lampoon Radio Hour collection with Belushi and co.,   and a few other good finds.
      New TV shows    This year I'm watching more TV than the last couple seasons.  I'm enjoying Arrested Development,  Karen Sisco, Two-and-a-Half Men, Stan Hooper,  and NOVA the most.
   That, and I've been selling a buncha stuff on Ebay, and posting way too much to the message boards.  I really need to turn off this computer and draw something.
