` After busying myself with stealing lakes, inventing the iBooger and destabilizing that Steve Ballmer guy... not to mention spending hours doing homework and making solid gold material for my new 'professional science writer' blog, Bethink Avenue, etc, I'm finally back!
` ...With my promised post!
` So here it is; that time I took my sketchbook to the Cleveland Art Museum in Little Italy! ...Though the museum may appear to be crawling with Goya drinks, those were added later to help fill in all the blank spaces.
` We have here various sculptures: There's Varani, a Minqi funerary object (which may or may not look like a dog), a Chinese woman (with PMS, I mused) and a piggybank from ancient Java.
` Yes, it's really a piggybank! It had a slot and everything! Fantastic old things, aren't they? But even more interesting is an ancient Hindu statue that had lost its limbs, around which I drew the statues of the Chinese Zodiac animals... which gave me an idea for a sitcom! (You can click this one for a larger image.)
` Here we have a Fu-dog... having a dialogue with a milkshake that actually caused me to throw up! (Sugar overdose!)
` This, unfortunately, came out a little blurry, but it's a very miserable-looking camel and a Native American on a horse, though I'm not sure who. (The strange-looking object at the top is a bird-infested chair I saw in the courtyard.)
` The second page, which is also out of focus, shows a very comedic interpretation of Jonah and the Non-Whale-Like Whale, where something I'd more call a 'water pig' decides that Jonah needs hot sauce and spits him out (to Jonah's surprise).
` The thing in the upper right corner, if you have not guessed, is the same sort of pig-like creature, saying; "I'm a WHALE? Cool!" (which you prob'ly can't read).
` Then, I have a nectarine, which I drew because it was awesome-looking, and a griffin protecting a lamb. (Past the blurriness, it's thinking 'must... look... fierce!' while the lamb is loving on it.)
` Next post, I think I'm going to dig a few things out of my small notebook, then go back to this one. Ta for now!

Excellent vintage material, Spoony! You know, if I was ever in a boat and saw that 'whale', I would freak out for sure! That's hilarious!
Its funny how many Goya cans you did. Here, Goya is pretty much always in the ethnic foods section. I don't know if I've ever seen anyone besides Hispanics buy it.
I saw your dragon says "what does a dragon say." I'd think it'd be "Rare or Well done?" or just go to the movies and yell "FIRE!"
` I think I would too, Galtron. How the heck could someone think a whale looked like that?
` Perhaps the sculptor, out of lack of reference, figured that a whale must be some kind of aquatic elephant?
` Charles, you have a good point! I'll keep my eye out for dragons in movie theaters.
` BTW, Goya is tasty. Strangely, I haven't seen it up here in Washington despite the fact that about a third of everyone is Hispanic.
` ...However, I have seen Hispanic Jell-O, which is reportedly much stronger than American Jell-O. And it even comes in Pineapple!
