GODLESS COMMIE!!!!
- Internet's Tad
If it weren't for that misshapen Texas I'd think he was tracing.
- EricaJoy
At the fair, what did he win?
- dkb
Come one, come all! See THE AMAZING FRANKEN draw these, our UNITED STATES. TWO BITS is all you need, right this way, folks. No pushing, everyone will get a chance to see THE AMAZING FRANKEN and his wonderful PEN OF GEOPOLITICAL BOUNDARIES as he DRAWS, FREEHAND and FROM MEMORY the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.
- Andy Bakun
The "at the Minnesota state fair" makes it look like a sideshow. And it is, since I doubt few other Senators could do this.
- Andy Bakun
It's definitely a gimick. This was something practiced, but still very cool for all that. Folks from the great state of Maine might be disappointed in the shrinkage from Franken's hand though.
- Kevin Fox
Well it's a good representation considering this is what politics has become, second rate comics becoming Senators.
- Spencer
That's pretty damn good! I feel much better about voting for him now! ;o)
- Mark "DerBingle" J
hmmm
- techfugatest
Gotta assume he's simply tracing faint lines but I wish i could hear what he's saying.
- Thom Kennon
Most people in the US could not name even most of the 50 States - at least one member of Congress can draw them out! Does not mean much but fun to watch!
- Lester Greenberg
Giggity!
- Derrick
Impressive.
- Rachel Luxemburg
I saw him do that on SNL at one point, back in the 90's
- Otto

He completely neglected the Chesapeake Bay. #fail. ;)
- Dennis O'Neil
We have a print given to us (and taken) by our friend photographer Bill Hayward of Franken in front of one of these drawings of the US map that he painted. Here's the image: http://www.artcritical.com/badbeha... It's framed and hanging in our bedroom. We didn't think of it as a political statement, just an artistic one, until our conservative real estate agent saw it, and said: "Oh, you're Democrats."
- Ginger Makela Riker
I bet no other elected representative of ANY STATE could draw a sketch of the US that was any where near as good as Franken's. My bet stands for 30 days from today.
- Jason Miller
I think this is something he's practiced for years. Didn't someone say he did this a long time ago on SNL?
- Internet's Tad
@Dennis O'Neill must be a real Baltimorean - he wrote "The" Chesapeake Bay. Most bays don't have a "the" but we always say "The" Cheasapeake bay.
- m9m, Crone of FriendFeed
ok, but can he draw Canada? Huh? Thought so!
- Shey, Jamaican of FF
Let's try that again. This time using a whiteboard. :D
- AJ Batac
Spencer - I guess politicians have evolved from second rate actors to second rate comics. At least comics generally come up with their own material.
- Robert Felty
This is a long-time Franken bit. For example, here's a clip of him doing this back in 1987 on Letterman: http://www.youtube.com/watch...

I don't get the negativity - did no one realize FriendFeed was a business? The object of a business is to sell eventually (either privately or publicly). We should be celebrating their success. This is a huge win for them, as well as Facebook. I personally think it's a huge win for the "loyal users" as well. So now we stab them in the back when they do something huge?

congrats on building an amazing product and incredibly passionate community! I was mad at first, but then realize that the technology was most likely sold, not the community. I'm hoping ff community will stay somewhat untouched and features that have been built into ff will be ported to fb.

Congratulations, FriendFeeders! I'm anxious to see what changes this will bring. FriendFeed is my favorite site to visit, so hopefully y'all will find a way to maintain the FF spirit somehow.

No matter the type of big change, there are those who will not like it, often simply because it's change. I for one am very pleased that two of the services I use most are joining forces, and am eager to see the new developments that come of this acquisition. Congrats to EVERYONE on the FriendFeed team.

This is a very sad day in friend feed history. It is horrible because I like friend feed for how it's different from face book.

MG: Maryam and I think it is very funny that we first met in the offices that TechCrunch now occupies. "That is their downfall," she says. :-)
- Robert Scoble
Robert: Ha. Weird. Okay, I'll alert the team of the impending doom :)
- MG Siegler
Congrats MG. The big question is whether Arrington had a clause in the contract that limited your time spent here on FriendFeed :)
- Mark Krynsky
MG you've gotta convert Michale into loving FF :)~ You're our secret "plant" hehehe
- Susan Beebe
MG Siegler, your mission, should you choose to accept it: find Michael Arrington, strap him down to a chair, tape his eyelids back and force him to watch the glory of the real time feed.

Congrats MG!

And auto makers too often only offer boring colors for cars. It's a chicken and the egg problem, but is a big problem as I want to get a factory paint job in a striking color.

My car is a luxury (Acura RL) colored white, with a gray trim. Take THAT, conformity!
- Mike Nayyar
Boring colors stand the test of time for those who keep their cars longer, avoids getting sucked into what's fashionable this year but dated-looking next year. White and black are hard to keep looking clean, thus silver and gray tend to dominate. It's like "relocation beige" carpeting in a house.

I have wanted a copper orange car badly for the last 4 years! *sighs*
- Rachel Lea Fox
one of my favorite weird colors for a car is burnt orange, like the 40th anniversary lotus - http://twitpic.com/376pu

"The designers meet with three different paint houses, we go to fashion shows, we read magazines such as the Trend Union, a bi-annual trend forecasting book that shapes colors and lifestyles for seasons ahead." Wow, they read a *magazine*? That's advanced design methodology!

If you've ever seen a big parking lot on Google Maps (or MS's Live Local or whatever they call it), you've seen how boring car colours are. Though in fairness, those photos might not be as saturated as real life.

Anyways, it's a shame.

I am so tired of seeing mostly white, black, silver, gray, and gold cars on the road. So boring.
- Anne Bouey
Yet another reason I like my green Mini :)
- Joel Webber
I'm only half boring, with a red car.
- Amit Patel
I like silver, so bite my shiny metal ass.

I used to have a funky colored beetle five years back.. before it finally aged out
- Sardar Mohkim Khan
its 2009 when it the changeable paint going to arrive? Click a button your car is orange. Tire of orange? Switch to green. Then blue. Formal event, Black sounds good.
- gfurry
love any color as long as it's black
- Carlo B. (brodo)
Rachel - the Chevy HHR makes orange. I'd guess it's not very popular since 99% of them seem to be owned by Avis. Rental car lots are great places to see some more experimental colors not often seen on the road.
- Sarah Miller
Sarah - thanks!! This is actually the exact car I want: http://images.cars.com/main... Mazda 3 in burnt orange copper. They sold it as an anniversary edition about 4 years ago for one year only. According to salesmen, it is continually one of their more popular colors and if they get one in used they can't keep it very long. You would think they would learn from that and bring it back!!! But no, the 2010 colors are released and no orange. :(
- Rachel Lea Fox
Ours is silver. Sometimes makes it hard to find in the parkinglot.
- Alix Whitmire
So the ship captain has been recovered. Special thanks to Chuck Norris. Should have called him in earlier.

Obviously the artwork is from Disney's animation of Snow White. Not sure where you would go from there.
- MVB (Grinch of FF)
The owner's flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos... "It's self-made. I found the artwork via google image search. She was part of the DVD-cover of Disneys Snow White. A litte Illustrator here and a little Photoshop there and then i finally printed it at my local copyshop on a adhesive foil."

I don't dig the Disney princesses, but I have to admit, this was pretty well done.

Anyone who shows this to my 5yo gets a kick in the pants.

That apple's poisoned, right?

One of the best examples of hand drawn animation. Nothing comes close to it.
- Melanie Reed
You can buy single frame cels of animation from Disney. When I was there, it was on the network, which threw you back to the past in the weirdest way, during the workday.

a Cease & Desist from Disney legal? ;-)

Heh, that was my thought too :)

Gorgeous. But the best animated film ever is definitely Sleeping Beauty. Pick it up on Blu-ray if you haven't yet. You'll just die.

Oh that's clever!
