The Carpet Master   July 31, 2008 We got a new phone list at work today. Glancing through it I noticed an entry that had been there before but I never spotted, right under the landlord's number, and it just said "Carpetmaster." So I imagined some carpet-themed super-dude. After further thought, I realized he would need to be a villain and would need some henchmen, or hench-carpet-samples, as the case may be. He would also use various carpet-themed terminology. All I could come up with was "pile" (Austin Powers overused the term "shag"). "Woof and weave" are more tapestry-related terms, though they seem either cool or silly. I must admit, I did borrow or steal a little of the idea from The Tick's ally The Carpeted Man.

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.
