Shakespearean Insults

If ever you are at a loss for words in a verbal sparring match, never fear! Shakespeare has got your back! Here is a poster of categorized insults penned by the Bard himself. You're welcome.

From the website: "A tribute to Shakespeare's dagger-like wit, featuring 100 of his greatest insults, categorized by topic. This array of verbal swordplay includes classics like, "I was seeking for a fool when I found you", and "More of your conversation would infect my brain". Each print is signed and numbered by the artist. Made with 100lb. recycled, archival quality, FSC certified paper and vegetable inks, these prints are offset lithograph pressed in the town of Mukilteo, Washington."'

Paddington Movie

So. I adore the Paddington Bear books by Michael Bond, and have read more than one in the past year. There are just some juvenile books that you can read as an adult and get just as much enjoyment out of them as when a child, and Paddington is one of those series for me.

When I heard it was going to be a movie, I squeeeed for like two days straight. It is due in theaters on November 15th. The film, directed by Paul King, co-stars stars Hugh Bonneville, Sally Hawkins, Jim Broadbent, Julie Walters, Michael Gambon, and Imelda Staunton. I hope it's good!

What beloved juvenile books would you like to see become a movie?

Inspirational Pencils

Sometimes you hit a rut. Sometimes those creative juices just aren't trickling out, much less flowing. Sometimes a silly little inspiration is all you need. In that case, I prescribe these cutie little pencils to keep close at hand.

Jurassic Cats

I hope everyone had a fantastic Halloween! How about we start the week with something different? Namely, a short clip created with scenes from Jurassic Park where giant cats are chasing the kids in the kitchen instead of raptors. I've watched it four times. Excuse me while I go watch it again.
