Search light casting...

I'm listening to the Grateful Dead's Woodstock set. I put it on as I was leaving work, for the walk to the train and the ride.

It's amazing how relaxed the Dead make me. All the work crap just evaporated. I crank up the sound, shut everything out, and nothing else matters. I close my eyes and it's just me and a bunch of freaks groovin' to the music... and I couldn't be happier.

Dave Stevens: Pin-Up God

Dave Stevens is one of my heroes. Without him, I may never have met the love of my life. He's best known for his pulp comic The Rocketeer. Besides being a fantastic adventure book that would not look out of place on the newsstands in the 50s, The Rocketeer is responsible for reintroducing Bettie Page to the world.

If any other artist used Bettie in their story, nothing would have come from it. It's Dave's amazing talent as a pin-up artist that brought her back. He captures her girl next door innocence. When people think of pin-up artists the first names that come to mind are Vargas and Petty, Dave deserves a spot right there next to them.

Others have followed Dave and tried their hand at Bettie pin-ups. Olivia De Berardinis and Jim Silke are both famous for their Bettie pics, but don't hold a candle to the master.

Thank you Mr. Stevens.

I'm writing this from my iPhone with a new app. It seems to work well. It adds pictures and syncs with my YouTube account to upload videos. Can't seem to find a make link button, but the app was cheap. You do get what you pay for.
