My pirate name is:

Red Mary Rackham

Passion is a big part of your life, which makes sense for a pirate.

You have the good fortune of having a good name,
since Rackham (pronounced RACKem, not rack-ham)
is one of the coolest sounding surnames for a pirate. Arr!

Isn’t she adorable? G’wan, give her a click under the chin …

Maukie is the fiercest, cutest cat ever to terrorize your mouse pointer. Move your cursor and Maukie will follow. Scratch her head, and she’ll meow. Rub her tummy, and she’ll purr. All the while, she’s breathing in and out, and watch the tail. She may even try to swat the cursor. The creator of this entertaining feline is unknown.

It’s almost enough to make me switch to Blogspot … gaaaa! did I actually say that??? But it’s okay because I’ve now got her on my Netvibes page, across ‘the room’ from the groovy cool fishtank (thanks again Lori for turning me on to that site – I totally love it).

Check it out … Mr Picassohead.

A couple of years ago a friend sent me a link to this rather fun site and, this being a rather lazy Sunday, I discovered it once again and started playing around.

So this is az Picassohead with new short haircut, as well as one eye wide open and the other dreaming … and nose somewhat bent out of shape, which is usually my fault for being overly sensitive (click thumbnail for larger image).

And here is one of Nog – thinking about abstract stuff, as usual …

Also a couple of Picasso Cats you might recognise.

If you make one of your own it would be great if you left a link to it here. f_artist.gif
