the first secretive group is every conspiracy theorist favorite evil overloads the illuminati, an secret organization that the whole internet know includes Lady Gaga, George W. Bush,Elizabeth II(well the whole british royal family) and any one else who is successful and rich and if your not successful or rich you can be dam shore the illuminati had something to do with it (it because of the illuminat i don't live in stately wayne manor) one of there favorite and most powerful symbols is the all seeing eye or Eye of Providence which the stick everywhere just to let you know that the highly secretive illuminati waz ere doing highly secretive secret bad stuff for secret reasons that your not permitted to know but you can read all about online.

the other secretive organization the Army of the Twelve Monkeys the fictional (unlike the illuminati) animal rights group who let all the animal out of a zoo in the film 12 Monkeys and spray painted we did it on wall around the city and got the blame for releasing a dead virus

return of the puppet

2012-01-05T02:58:00.000Z

i have made a broach for my puppet out of some random bit my brother got me for christmas

and add some wire under the hod of his robe to add some shape

heads up

2012-01-03T00:37:00.001Z

some thing new i am working on is a rag doll head i started by covering head with paper mache to make a copy with the ears and nose removed than i use that to plot out a pattern which i transferred on to newspaper before cutting out of some trousers which i have started to sew them together and it starting to look a bit like a head

also i have a new t-shirt just uploaded bus stop

it's a bus stop in space bus stop in space based on a bus stop between waltham cross and waltham abbey and now it on a t-shirt i'm shore the numbers of tourists coming to see it will increase in 2012 peking around the 1st and 2nd of August

it's 2012

2012-01-01T02:35:00.002Z

so it's 2012 so i guess i should put 2011 to rest with a bit of an obituary
in 1211 wrote 96 post for this blog which is a bit disappointing seeing as i posted 123 in both 2010 and 2009 so i'm going to try harder this year
in 2011 this blog got 4,582 hit compared to 2010's 4,824 which at first gals looks bad but with statistics you can usually put a good spin on them and technically in 2011 i got an average of 47.729167 hits pre post compared to 2010's 39.243902 so i'm counting that as a win

i have sold
9 t-shirts (it was 5 in 2010)
5 sticker (0 in 2010)
and 1 i-phone case (0 in 2010)

that right somewhere out there in the big wide world is a super cool and undoubtedly ultra attractive individual with head on the back of there i-phone

so that was 2011 ( also some dictators died) but what will 2012 hold in store
maybe me and my brother will finish the soundArt project (started in 08)
maybe i'll get round to continuing my distopeian scrapbook
maybe i'll sell 10 t-shirts

maybe a the illuminati will blow up london during the olympics as blatantly predicted by this card

but if nothing happens i'm shore it won't be long before this card blatantly predicted something else.

door21 a man with a plan

2011-12-21T04:20:00.001Z

so my plan was this go to the Isabel Hospice shop in waltham cross where just abbot everything is a pound and buy a duvet cover or a pair of curtains and try and make something out of them ( i hadn't got as far as working out what that something was to be) but the best lay plans of mice and men often go awry (usually after a augment about cheese) and all they had was some pillow cases and tea towels so i left empty handed and defeated and went for a look round the other charity shop waltham cross has to offer and got myself a copy of dave gorman's googlewhack adventure

a book about a man with a plan to wright a novel but get distracted by a game involving a well know internet search engine

my puppet now has his own hooded robe made out of some old jeans he still need a bit more work like finding a way to keep his hood for drooping down for over his eye sockets and i think a broach would be a good finishing touch
