Dig Up Leornardo Da Vinci's Corpse

Italian scientists are asking permission to dig up Da Vinci's bones in hopes to reconstruct his face to discover if the masterpiece Mona Lisa is actually a disguised self portrait. Da Vinci is believed to be resting at Amboise Castle in the Loire Valley, where he died in 1519.

As everyone knows, the identity of Mona Lisa remains a mystery. Some scholars believe that due to Da Vinci's alleged homosexuality and love for puzzles, he painted himself as a woman. French cultural officials already agreed to exhumed Da Vinci's remains.

One of the reasons Mona Lisa is such a masterpiece is its mystery. How about we leave the dead alone and let Da Vinci rest in peace, not in pieces.

Museum Goer Rips Picasso Painting!

A woman visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art in NYC accidentally lost her balance and fell into a Picasso painting, leaving a six inch gash. The six-feet tall painting is the 1904-1905 work, "The Actor" and it's worth about $130 million. The painting is now removed for repairs (always wondered how these kind of things get repaired).

So the question is - did this woman get any repercussion for ruining a $130 million painting?

Oh, Hello There

A few months ago, I decided to try my hands on Cafe Press with one of my designs. The design is my favorite creation so far, the ever so quirky Monkey Shake. Without any real marketing tactics, largely due to laziness, I uploaded the image and plastered it on all available items Cafe Press offers. A few months later, I felt like amusing myself by logging on to see if I sold one teeny item -I did, and then some.

To my surprise, I actually sold a few shirts and even a pair of boxer shorts. I know, not a big deal but it makes me giggle that a few people out there likes my monkey. The most popular one seems to be this yellow shirt that happens to compliment my monkey's butt very well:

You can get your own here.

I already have a lineup of cute critters going, just working on some background designs and will try out some variety.

I'm also looking into Zazzle - anyone has any experience with that site? How does it compare with Cafe Press?

I really would love to get back on Etsy, which previously did well for me. Maybe I need to pair up with an indie shirt manufacture shop. Ideas, ideas.

I'm also working on some simpler designs, so I can make some stuffed felt dolls - should be an adventure!
