Gladstone Tools!?


Gladstone Tools!?
Originally uploaded by mrtoastey

So there we were, Lucy and I, at the Museum of the American Cocktail in New Orleans. And what should we see? Why, it's a a souvenir ice-smasher with the Gladstone Tools brand. What is the Gladstone Tools brand, you may ask? Why it's the house brand of Manny Shambhu and his fantastic artist son and dear friend of mine, Jim Shambhu.

Here's the whole set of photos from our visit.

Robot Chicken Super Kate!


Super Kate!
Originally uploaded by mrtoastey

Apparently everybody who visits LA gets a celebrity story, but I think mine was better than most. Thanks to the awesome SuperKate, I got to visit for a couple of hours at Robot Chicken studios and hang out with Seth Green and co., including voice-over visitor David "The Hof" Hasselhof, while Kate captured audio. What a funny memory. Luckily I have this photo as proof.

Super cool times, SuperKate. Thank you! (also thanks to Seth for hooking me up with a sweet RC tee and for being so cool with my pal Kate)
