Birthday Flood   June 08, 2005 I woke up this morning to the sound of a vacuum cleaner, as a maintenance guy was shop-vac'ing the water out of my apartment. Apparently a pipe had burst under the kitchen sink. It was spraying out, flooding the kitchen, and then it flooded into the next apartment, which was unoccupied. Then that flooded into the next apartment, which was occupied (by people and now water). The thing is, burglars don't actually do housework, like vacuuming and cleaning, so I wasn't particularly disturbed. And besides, if they do, then I probably shouldn't stop them. Since I am on the high ground, well, residentially, if not morally, I missed the worst of it. So my birthday present today is new carpet, new sink pipe, and new kitchen tile. Perhaps there's a better way to get such things. I'm still figuring out the new scanner. The picture looks better without the background. Just click on it.

I tend to doodle. Over the years, I've accumulated lots of random sketches of things, sometimes people, sometimes things, and sometimes just abstract lines. The basic idea on these pages is for me to slowly scan in highlights from my collection of random quick doodles. I also am providing a place where I can explain what it is or what motivated it or perhaps some reason why I'm not to blame. With the sketches of people, their name may be hand-written, or there might be a talk title provided, but I will tend to avoid providing full names. I don't mind if people know who they are, I just don't want them coming up on search engine hits, since that might be a bit rude.

Note that the images are PNGs with transparency. Mozilla and Firefox properly render them. Safari too, I think. Internet Exporer doesn't. I don't care.
If you want to see the image without the annoying blue-lined background image, just click on the image.
