… awesomeness … lord of the rings … the books, the movie … by j.r.r. tolkien … my favorite right up there with conan.

… what can i say … the rolling stones were pretty cool dudes … some of my favorite guitar riffs of all time … right up there with ac/dc and aerosmith … where the band let the raw, simple chords do all the talkin’.

… loved every conan written by robert e. howard … need to read his other stuff … solomon kane, and so on.

… wish he would have lived longer and wrote more.

… total awesomeness … fire and ice animated movie … i wish they had made a thousand more of these … frank frazetta and ralph bakshi … they used rotoscoping (tracing live video onto animation cells).

… cool, awesome stuff … you know, i don’t even remember the story all that well … but certainly, these images and characters will always be a part of my childhood memory … maurice sendak … awesomeness.

… one of my favorite van halen songs … with blue angels … awesomeness.

… awesomeness … watterson was a genius comics creator … i love everything about calvin & hobbes … the drawing, watercolors, hand lettering, character development, everything.

… never met watterson, so i can’t say i know the guy … but i always respected him for his decision not ‘commercialize’ calvin & hobbes (t-shirts, lunch boxes, etc.) … he did sell books, though, which is respectable.

… i worked about four years at rockshox, got to learn a bit about mountain bikes and the pro riders … not much of a bike rider myself, but i can certainly appreciate the sport … what andrew dickey is doing with this bike is insane … full awesomeness.

… yesterday was charlie brown … today, snoopy and woodstock … total awesomeness.

… some of the best cartoon lines ever drawn! … an american cartoon icon … charles schulz’s “charlie brown.”
