This is pretty amazing.

Clearly I'm not having a very productive Sunday. Regardless, you should check this ad out, it's pretty wild - http://veryfunnyads.com/ads/25502.html.

Update

Apparently, even with long hair I still look like Gary Oldman, but now also look like his holiness the Dalai Lama, a backstreet boy, and Johnny Carson. Hrmph, I say again. I am beginning to think this tool is dubious. It did a REALLY good job with the woman from whose blog I took the link, but it's striking out with me. Anyway, here are the long haired results:

Should I be offended at this?

I found this cool website (I thought!) where you upload a pic of your face and it makes you a little collage of all the celebrities you look like. Unfortunately when I uploaded a pic this morning without any makeup or hair alteration, my celebrity lookalikes came up 90% male. Hrmph. Maybe I'll try it with an older pic of me where I have long hair and see what I get. At least if I had to have males, the one closest to me is Gary Oldman, who I happen to think is hot. So there!

Gallery of FOs

So in craftster, there's a shorthand for finished objects you've crafted - FOs. So I have in the spirit of showing of my crafty prowess (haha) created a quick little website with some albums of FOs. So far I've only got stenciled shirts and earrings up there, but eventually I hope it will be a full gallery of all my crafts. I'll probably even put a special section up for the craft fair in October. So anyway, here it is now, in its incompleteness.

Fall

Today, there was something different in the air. It was fall. Despite the fact that today, by all appearances, was another lovely summer day in the month of September, I know the truth. Today was the first day of Fall. It announced it's presence by adding a crispness to the air that only true autumn-lovers can detect in such early stages, but it was there, and I detected it. It gave me a rush of joy, autumn being (despite the increasing amount of darkness) my favorite season. I am content.

Some US Open Pics

Sunday I went with my family to the 3rd (for Men) and 4th (for Women) round of the US Open. My Dad's friend manages Arthur Ashe stadium. He gave us AMAZING seats. On my ticket stub (which I shall save forever) it says "courtside box." I used multiple exposure mode on my camera to take most of the pics below.

John Larroquette

Taking a cue from wonderturtle, this blog decides to (ironically or not) adopt one of its favorite character actors. We had a hard time choosing, and we think in the end our selection was biased based on all the episodes of West Wing we've been watching lately. Regardless, Run Bethie Run chooses John Larroquette. John Larroquette of a long stint on Night Court, a (so far) short stint on Boston Legal, 5 emmys, and various tv show guest appearances fame. My favorite of these guest appearances is when he threatens to kill John Spencer (a.k.a. Leo) with a cricket bat in an episode of West Wing. This fabulous moment is captured here. Apparently this is many other people's favorite John Larroquette moment, as when he's google searched, it's the third result! Also, he speaks loudly and carries a big stick, and you know you can never go wrong with that bit!!

I'm going to the US Open today with my family, which I'm totally pumped about. But hopefully I'll be back later, because I have a new movie review: Dial M for Murder.
