Petr, I have no idea what you mean, but thank you. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

@Kol .. :] that, partially, might have been the purpose.... I don't know it exactly either. :] .. was I reflecting on a cat under the fax, and that it is hard to fax that way ... /?:] ... "underfaxing at its worst" .. - Petr Buben

Ah, OK, Petr. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

Try rolling the cat through a press first. Flat cats fit into the fax easier. - Bob Blunk

Fax, Petr. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

even a flat cat... faxes just can't handle the hair. You'd have to shave the cat first, else the hair will burn and stick to the drum... a mess! (I am extrapolating from transparencies, mind, i don't have access to a cat to test) - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)

Hehe, Joelle. This is now tied for the 'likes' top stop. One more then, hehe. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

Ok, over the top now. - Greg Guitarbuster

Hehe, Greg. Blimey! Erm, is that not far from 500 likes now? ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

Bloody marvelous, Kol. Wish I could like it again... too cute (and help u to 500 likes). - Roberto Bonini

I couldn't believe it when I logged on from the morning over posting it and saw it was at something 200 likes! You all have a strange fetish with cats and fax machines, hehe. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

Am I the only one who saw this and their first thought was - My goodness did someone break that cats neck? It still freaks me out a little - Steve C

Steve, it does look a little out of place, but cats are pretty bendy. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

They fax much better if you flatten them first. What? - Kevin Pedraja

LOL, Kevin. - Kol Tregaskes

i can also imagine the cat going there cause it is snug and warm - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)

Ey, it would be a tad warm on there, especially after a long working day. ;-) - Kol Tregaskes

Caption which needs to be said aloud: Uh Ohz, I'm totally FAXED! - sofarsoShawn

"The Volkswagen Microbus is a classic - even to those of us born after its time. Arguably unlike the newly remade Beetle, this remake of a VW classic is remarkably true to the original on the outside - but on the inside it is a bio-diesel hybrid stuffed full of high tech gadgetry and eco-friendly innovations." - Kol Tregaskes from Bookmarklet

sounds awesome. live the hippie dream, only it probably costs about $50,000 or something. - Thomas Hawk

It's kinda cute. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

Not a fan. Then again, didn't like the original ;) - Mo Kargas

Afraid not Thomas, $129,000 - Steven Cains

Super cool VW Bus making a comeback... - Walt Ruppar

First of all, I'll cop to wanting one of these. That being said, Jason is right. This is for rich hippies (who probably aren't hippies at all). The VW microbus became the darling of the Flower Power crowd because it was cheap, easy to repair, and big. You could camp in it. Is there a car today that fits this bill? - Chris Baskind

wow, you can buy an awful lot of pot with $129,000. - Thomas Hawk

I don't know a self-respecting hippie that would prefer this over a really nice indoor greenhouse. ;-) - Chris Baskind

@Chris, Most cars today aren't as simple, but with the wealth of knowledge online, it just takes more time. The minivan/SUV can become a camper van with a few mods. They'll never take the place of the VW, but they're an updated version of the 70s panelvan conversions (hopefully without shag carpeting & a disco-ball). - Steven Cains

Nope: there will never be anything that simple again. That's not all bad: I can't imagine a 1960s VW Minibus would satisfy *any* federal safety standard these days. You're right. A used minivan might be the closest thing. - Chris Baskind

Very Cool. You can't drive your house but, you can sleep in your Van !!! - Eric Logan

Want. - Ken Sheppardson

Want!! - Sarah Perez

Very intriguing. How much steel is in that thing? Chris, that would be my next question after fuel consumption: how safe is this thing? And I agree, when we can go back to making transportation that costs less than a small home, we may have achieved something amazing. ;) - Melanie Reed

However, I have heard (and I'm not remembering where at the moment) that there has been a movement growing of people seeking alternative housing and substituting things like this as the new "mobile" home. - Melanie Reed

AWESOME! - tomit

@drewdomkus ... you need this for your move! - tomit

Oh, shit, it's so beautifull! - Igor Kuzmin

Everyone is loving this! We should have an FF one and use it to travel to all the FFers around the World (like Pea seems to be doing ;-)). Hehe. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

I've owned 5 VWs, two of which were split window vans. I'd love to have another, this is awesome! - Rick Bucich from twhirl

I have had more VWs than other cars...starting with a 71 Superbeetle, and a Split Window Microbus. I would LOVE to have something like this. - Kreg Steppe

Want. Cannot afford. - Jules

So after reading this article yesterday, I found myself this evening in front of a local place that specializes in reconditioning old VWs. It was closed, but there's an awesome red and white microbus out front with a For Sale sign on it. Ugly, underpowered -- and probably dangerous, by modern standards. Want. ;-) - Chris Baskind

Cee, really? I find FF search is pretty good. - Kol Tregaskes

I love this Mobile...owned a few Vdubs, lived in a VW camper, but this is off the hook..I would become a true nomad with this... - bcultral

I'd like to have something like this, something small. What do you really need? A bed, perhaps a TV and room for your computer. Then you can live anywhere you like, in theory. - Kol Tregaskes

I see a caricature-like logo where hands would be palms-up like this in the lotus position. Enlightenment. Each hand signing "F". cool. - tagami

I like that idea tagami - Josh Haley

And don't forget the variation for the night crew with the N and C sign afterwards =) Josh, no lie, I was thinking of exactly this last night. Get outta my head! - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Tina..I'M IN UR HEADZ, MAKNG U FEEDZ FRENZ - Josh Haley

lol Brian - Josh Haley

We throwing up signs now?!! It's Like That?!! hahahahaha!!!!! - Anna Haro

I am SO not an expert on signs. My fingers can barely bend enough nowadays. Just trying to get some ideas out there. Let's see some more from everyone. Rahsheen's fault, he brought it up last night on a video. - Josh Haley

LOL! I like the 3rd one. - Fa La La La Lindsay

Oh, and I like how John looks kinda loveable dork in his avatar, and all grrr hardcore in these pics. Awesome! - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

Who's John? - Josh Haley

lol Mark...you left a vacuum i guess :O - Josh Haley

Gah, typo! You know darn good & well I meant Josh! It's Friday, can you really expect my brain to work? - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)

I like the third one, it's gang-sign-y-ish - mjc

GAH! I love that word! Yeah, I gotcha Tina ;) - Josh Haley

The first one is actually really similar to how you sign "free" in ASL. http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... - Rochelle

And the second one is similar to "family" in ASL. http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... - Rochelle

Nice one, Rochelle! - Josh Haley

Some prefer the printed letter F, for those who can't read sign - http://friendfeed.com/e... - Ontario Emperor

Looks good to me. - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah

I actually prefer a single handed gang sign . . . since I'll be on FF with the phone in the other hand. - B. Hatin

Show me! Post your ideas for signs. - Josh Haley

Those first two will make people think you are throwing up "Bloods". - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE

I think the only course to go here is to pick something directly from sign language.....I don't want anyone to bust a e-cap in my ass - Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah

Monique - THANK YOU for that because I would never know. I too am not in need of a cap-busting. - Josh Haley

If you want a real ASL sign, let me know what word/words and I'll find it! - Rochelle

Rochelle, One for friend, feed and confess(ion) - Josh Haley

Oh, and Night Crew - Josh Haley

Friend: http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... - Rochelle

Feed is hard. There's a sign for "feed", but it's the eating sense. http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... - Rochelle

"Night crew" would be the sign for "night" plus the sign for "group" or "team" so: http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... plus http://homepage.gallaudet.edu/harry... - Rochelle

"Confession" would be signed as "true/truth": http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101... - Rochelle

Link back to Rah's new vid http://beta.friendfeed.com/e... - Josh Haley

Yeah, cause nothing says "we advocate gangs" like coming up with your own gang signs for products. - Joe from twhirl

Um... that last one Josh... um... - Johnny Worthington

Fail, I don't get it...plus there's no chest bump - sofarsoShawn

*awkward fist bump!* - Josh Haley

r u sure , they are done in pencil ?? The jpeg has some strange watermarks within.. need to scan the raw exifr data within the jpeg. I am doubting that this is pencil only !~ - Peter Dawson

searcing for a specialist to decide that those are fake or real drawings :) - Burçak Çubukçu

Peter can I send you some of the originals? We might as well find out the truth. I'm curious about a couple of them. - Michael Fidler

I think they are real - Manuela

I'am a sceptic. If those are real drawings. Somebody has to prove it. Is there a video link that some one actualy draw one of these for instance? - Burçak Çubukçu

Just to show you Burçak, that I'm curious about the truth also, I've done a little investigating myself. I found the original picture from which the Jesica Alba drawing is copied. http://bit.ly/gAXX - Michael Fidler

how'd you get Johnny Depp to sit still for so long? - Nathan Rein

Michael, I do belive in "PHOTOSHOP". Anyway thank you for your efforts. - Burçak Çubukçu

Burçak Çubukçu I think I'm leaning a little in your direction now. After overlaying the two images, they're practically identical. There is a tiny difference on the ruffle of her dress, but otherwise they are the same. To be honest, they "could" be photoshopped! - Michael Fidler

ok Jessica Alba's could be a drawing... - Burçak Çubukçu

drawing photo-realistically isn't hard when you're copying a photograph. they're probably real but not really art. Just great artistic skillz. - JoEllen

Naturally the celebrities had to come from some type of original work, and a photo is the most likely candidate. I am starting to notice some small texture differences, especially in the one with Johnny Depp. BTW, I found the original for that too. It's on the cover of the DVD for the movie. - Michael Fidler

Here's a link to three more. These ones look like they were definitely drawn http://bit.ly/OvxZb - Michael Fidler

@The Other Brian (Norwood), You cold be right, and perhaps that explains why some of the detailed work was left out on the Johnny Depp piece. Here's a link to a few more, which are more obvious, but still came from the same set http://bit.ly/tklrX - Michael Fidler

I own a book called "How to Draw Lifelike Portraits from Photographs" by Lee Hammond. It shows all the techniques and phases of creating something like this in pencil and graphite. So... Yes, it is possible. If you ask me, though, this is an artform best left to the ADD set. - Angela

Kol, I can't thank you enough! Kol found a different posting, which proves these are all pencil drawings. I had my doubts about a few of them, because they were collected from several locations. The site Kol found has done a wonderful job pulling together an even more impressive collection .Take a look. http://www.flickzzz.com/2009... - Michael Fidler

No worries, Michael. :-) Shame we couldn't find all the artists. - Kol Tregaskes

top right picture: http://aramismarron.deviantart.com/art... - james foor

Thank's James!!! Actually I've been waiting for two month's for someone to bring these back up. Since I posted them in March, I've not only discovered who all three of the artists are, but found some new one's as well. I'm going to look for info on the artists, and post it. Could you please pop-up the other one as well? I would prefer to post it there. It's the one with a bear, lion, and I believe a tiger on it. Thanks again! - Michael Fidler

Here's the link to the other set; http://ff.im/1Aepj. - Michael Fidler

James, I just saw the post you left on the other set. Sorry I missed it. For the record, I always knew that these were copies of photographs. I ran them through TinEye before posting anything in the hopes of discovering the artists. In the comments, several people correctly pointed this out as well. However, it still doesn’t diminish the quality of the work. - Michael Fidler

People say I'm an extremely picky eater. They confuse my strong revulsion and opinions about certain items as being "picky". That is not my problem. These are the things I won't eat:

Orange items except for oranges and the occasional raw carrot. - Admiral Anika

Walnuts or pecans - Admiral Anika

Chocolate items I don't make. Total snob about where I get my chocolate from. I won't eat brownies, fudge, chocolate cake or chocolate frosting. - Admiral Anika

White sauces save for Alfredo. - Admiral Anika

Peanut butter. I'll eat a PayDay, but PB sauces or peanuts in my food = GAG. - Admiral Anika

Fruity meat dishes. I don't like sweet meats. - Admiral Anika

Pancakes. This actually is a childhood block. We had to eat them so often when my brother was little because it was the only thing he would eat. - Admiral Anika

Beets. - Admiral Anika

I guess Anika will be taken to a restaurant if she ever visits my home.o_0 Peanut butter is closest thing to heaven! - Janet

Coconut. It smells like suntan lotion. I will use a little coconut oil in some dishes, but if it's not Thai or Malaysian food, I won't eat it. - Admiral Anika

Picky? No, not at all. - Christopher Harley

You're not a picky eater, you're just cuh-razy. - Derrick

You don't like coconut? Oh my. - Michelle Martinez

Internal organs. - Admiral Anika

Sweetbreads? - Christopher Harley

There are some very nice Indian recipes with coconuts - Deepti

Oatmeal or shreaded wheat cereals. Seriously. I'm not a horse. - Admiral Anika

Isn't a muscle an internal organ? - Akiva Moskovitz

No. - Christopher Harley

Do not be contrary with me, Christopher Harley. - Akiva Moskovitz

It's tissue. - Christopher Harley

Mushroom and bell peppers. I love the flavor they give foods, but I won't eat them. I'll push them aside. - Admiral Anika

"sweet meats" LOL - ha3rvey (doesn't dance)

How else do I describe that? Orange chicken is wrong. Raisins in food is wrong. I used to cry picking raisins out of my biryani when I was a kid. - Admiral Anika

Caramel. Just. No. - Admiral Anika

Now I want oatmeal with walnuts and coconut and raisins. - Christopher Harley

Yeah. This certainly isn't picky. I can't believe anyone could ever make this mistake. - Akiva Moskovitz

I won't eat cole slaw unless I make it. No one else does it right. - Admiral Anika

Just curious Anika, how many times as an adult have you retried these things? Sometimes it takes a mature palate to appreciate. - Janet

Alfredo will be glad you've spared his white sauce. - Christopher Harley

I just don't like guacamole. Everything else I eat with the abandon of a man released from prison due to his conviction being overturned on DNA analysis. - Derrick

And the reason I say I'm not a picky eater is that with the exception of Vietnamese food, I'll eat food from anywhere on the planet. I have friends who think it's strange that I eat sushi, Middle Eastern or African food. They can not get their heads around the fact that Cuban food is not the same as Mexican food. They say that I'm "inventive" when it comes to my dishes because I use fresh veggies/herbs instead of canned or dried ones. - Admiral Anika

Okay, I'm with you on the raisins. - ha3rvey (doesn't dance)

Janet, with the except of oatmeal, everything I've listed above has been served or offered to me within the last week. Still nasty. - Admiral Anika

Okay, you are not 'picky' but per se a food snob? j/k - Janet

Calling Anika a food snob is not fair to REAL food snobs!!! - Christopher Harley

You must have been frequenting a LOT of potlucks if you've been served or offered all of the above within the last 7 days. - Rochelle

I've met toddlers less fussy when it comes to food. - Akiva Moskovitz

The only food I avoid is one prepared by minimum wage employees. - Christopher Harley

When I first met Adrian 10 years ago, I would not eat fish. In my world fish was served two ways: fried to death or grilled with butter. He got me to try it again and I'm glad he did. Now, I eat all kinds of fish, even sushi. He could even tell you how when he first introduced me to sushi, I would eat albacore and unagi. Now, I eat just about everything except for uni & tako. Oh and mackerel...too fishy. - Admiral Anika

Anika, that's not so bad. I think I have some acquaintances who could give you a real run for your money when it comes to "pickiness". - ha3rvey (doesn't dance)

How about "only eats fried chicken and hamburgers"? Every. Stinkin'. Day. Won't eat anything green. Has two kids. - ha3rvey (doesn't dance)

Potlucks, Rochelle? What? Anyway, thank you Harvey. I feel the same way. One of my friends who makes a huge production out of "let's cater the menu to Anika" even though I have no problem picking stuff out of my food and NEVER say anything rude when it's served, is acting all dramatic because I told her the yak at the Tibetan place is really good. She can't believe that anyone would eat yak on purpose. Whatever. - Admiral Anika

Can you eat paella? If I couldn't, I'd have to kill myself. - Christopher Harley

To be honest, this really sounds like more an OCD condition than anything else, Anika. - Ben Parr

OMG, here we go. - Christopher Harley

Janet, I don't think I'm a total food snob at least not to the extent of feeling the need to brag about organic this and that. I do prefer fresh over canned. I prefer new recipes over the pedestrian. If someone serves me something that seems lifted from the back of a can, I get a little sad. - Admiral Anika

Anika, you listed off about 20 food items that you said you've been offered or served in the past week. So, given that, I would assume you're going to a lot of potlucks or other similar events with a lot of food present. - Rochelle

Christopher, I can only eat paella when it doesn't have pork in it. Anything else in it varies drastically depending on who is making it. I find that my Spanish friends make it way different than my Brazilian ones. In mixed foods like that I can usually eat something I prefer not to as long as it's not a strong taste. One of the Cuban restaurants we go to will not use certain items if I ask. - Admiral Anika

Like even though I don't like cooked carrots or peas, I will eat them in fried rice because they're supposed to be in there. But don't ask me to eat a German chocolate cake. That's just completely foul since it's made of everything that makes me gag. - Admiral Anika

Well, on the bright-side, there's still a lot out there that you will eat. - Christopher Harley

I should do a list like this. People say I'm picky. I say "I only eat real food." - ha3rvey (doesn't dance)

The thing that's funny is that several months ago I did a list like this of foods I liked and people were saying, "OMG, you eat that? That's nasty!" - Admiral Anika

Yay, I never thought I'd meet someone with as strong convictions about what they eat as myself. - Penguin It's Cold Outside

I dunno Anika. I would say you're definitely particular about what you won't eat. some people are particular about *everything* and others don't seem to be particular about anything at all. most of us fall in the middle somewhere. - jbrotherlove

And some last ones: milk, kettlecorn, syrup, papaya and banana-flavored stuff (except banana bread). :) - Admiral Anika

I'm with you on the caramel Anika! - Charlotte M from iPhone

So what is being picky, if not having "strong revulsion and opinions about certain items" ? - Andrew C

Anika, you're picky. :-D There's no way around it. - Jason Huebel

No internal organs? Ohh come now, what's wrong with a good squishy brain? - Mo Kargas

I've not yet received my zombie card. - Admiral Anika

I'm with you on everything but the nuts, pancakes, and oatmeal. Oh, and milk. I'll eat kettlecorn but it's meh, mostly. I'm a lot pickier, though. - Alix Whitmire

I'd say the only thing I won't knowingly eat is organs. Particularly filtering/digestive organs. The only exception to that is liver and I'll only eat it in boudain. - Jason Huebel

I am so happy to read all of this b/c I no longer feel like I'm the only particular person on the planet. - Katy S

I ate too much water melon when I was 10 and become very sick. After that my family said I was too lazy to pick out the seeds. Jerks all of them, but I do love them still. - Russellreno

Russell, you just reminded me. I also don't eat watermelon, though I'll eat watermelon flavored candies. - Admiral Anika

OK, not liking watermelon is just weird. You can't survive the heat here in Texas without watermelon. :-P - Jason Huebel

But it's grainy! And then the seeds...all that spitting. *shudder* - Admiral Anika

I'm with you on watermelon! I've actually never once had a piece of watermelon, I just know I won't like it. I don't eat strawberries for much the same reason, but love anything and everything strawberry flavoured. I think my pickiness comes from food texture issues. - Penguin It's Cold Outside

Yes, I'm huge on texture, Penguin, but it's weird. Like I won't eat pudding or yogurt for that reason. I can eat raw oysters, scallops (raw or cooked) and steamed mussels with mental preparedness, yet I can't eat smoked clams. I can eat cooked, raw and heat-smoked salmon, but lox makes me gag unless it's smothered in something. - Admiral Anika

Disowning for not liking CARAMEL. I will take caramel every time over chocolate. LOVE it. It's my favorite non-fruity sweetness. MMMMMMMMmmmmmmm. Golden sweet buttery gooey wonderfulness. - Fa La La La Lindsay

You can have mine, Lindsay. More for you. You may even like the caramel I make. Apparently it's good stuff. - Admiral Anika

Wow, won't even eat the stuff you make?? I couldn't deal! - Fa La La La Lindsay

I make a lot of things I won't eat because everyone else likes it. Food is to be enjoyed by everyone. I think it would suck if I held everyone hostage to my whims. - Admiral Anika

German Chocolate Cake = the. best. cake. ever. - Laura Norvig

Sounds to me like you could use a good long trip to the real world, where people are hungry and eat what they can afford. - Will Higgins™

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn. - Akiva Moskovitz

Wow Will, what a useful suggestion as always. =) - Admiral Anika

Will wanted to sneak that one in. Who's lookin'? EVERYBODY. - Christopher Harley

LOL @Christopher & Akiva I'm used to Will spouting off from his high horse. It's amusing to me. - Admiral Anika

I have a friend who's about as picky as you. Whenever she visits she always finds time to eat my treats but turn her nose up at anything I'm cooking. I don't regard fussiness as admirable, that's all. I've seen people who are doing it rough. Maybe if you did too, you might change. - Will Higgins™

I'm just as picky and I've never once thought it was an admirable thing. My question to you, Will, is why do I have to change? I'm generally polite and if presented with something at someone's home that I don't particularly care for, I'll try it and endure it if I have to, but when I'm on my own, who am I hurting by giving in to my silly whims? - pea

I'm not saying anyone has to change! I'm just stating my opinion and clarifying why I feel the way I do about the matter. - Will Higgins™

I apologize for being uncouth. Perhaps I could have tried starting a discussion about the merits of fussiness in a more respectful and mature manner. - Will Higgins™

Not eating something because you dislike the taste, texture in the mouth, smell all seem legitimate. But having a revulsion, opinion about foods based on colour does seem a bit out there don't you think? - Brian Sullivan

=) Will, like I said, I'm used to it now. It's just how you are. Last year it used to annoy me, but I know (hope?) that you mean well. But your comment was such a parental moment. - Admiral Anika

I'm about as couth as Rush Limbaugh. And an egoist, and I always think I'm right. Funny you say that I'm parenty 'coz it's totally like that with my picky friend. People look to me and say 'she needs to do this and this, don't you agree?' and I always say 'I don't care what she does, she's a big girl now' EXCEPT with the eating thing. Then I'm always on her case. - Will Higgins™

I agree with many of those dislikes. Exceptions are mushrooms, peppers, and white sauces. The others I either hate or could easily do without. - Jen (SquirrelGirl) from iPhone

The German Chocolate Cake is NOT a lie. - Christopher Harley

Squash. - Admiral Anika

Squash is the devil's vegetable. - Brian Sullivan

Well, the one I made had chicken. That would be a better choice for me since I'm allergic to shellfish. However, I think it is a pretty flexible recipe and would work with all sorts of proteins. - Katy S

After all, the company that makes it is called "Organix." And they have a "No junk promise." And they say that there's "reduced salt" and "reduced fat." Wait, what? I didn't know carrots had fat or salt. In fact, they don't. That's because "Carrot Stix" are not, in fact, carrot sticks. They're cheezy-poofs: deep fried powdered corn/potato snacks, dusted with "powdered carrots." They are not, in fact, carrots. They're not even food. - Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie) from Bookmarklet

"I grilled eggplant slices, and they looked perfect when they were beautifully browned and pulled off the grill. I then nestled my wok right onto the coals, quickly sauteed some garlic, ginger, scallions, and chiles, and tossed in the eggplant and sauce, letting it cook until thickened. It looked so mouthwatering, and I eagerly took a first taste. It had a deep ginger flavor that I love, along with the type of sauce that makes good Chinese food." - Derrick from Bookmarklet

"Catherine Brown has discovered references to the dish in a recipe book dated 1615, The English Hus-wife by Gervase Markham. This was published at least 171 years before Robert Burns penned his poem Address to a Haggis, which made the delicacy famous." - M F from Bookmarklet

"The first comprehensive effort to identify and catalog every species in the world's oceans, from microbes to blue whales, is a year from completion. But early discoveries have profoundly altered understanding of life beneath the sea, senior scientists say. New tracking tools, for example, show that some bluefin tuna migrate between Los Angeles and Yokohama, Japan; one tagged tuna crossed the Pacific three times in a year. White sharks forage even farther for food, commuting between Australia and South Africa." - Jason Toney from Bookmarklet
