Let me explain this one by saying&#8230;no, I think there really isn&#8217;t an explanation.  Some images are just triggered by random association.
I could point out, though, that many of Mr. Martin&#8217;s sound effects seem as if they might have been culled from old Lovecraft stories&#8230;.

		<title>B-Fest 2010: The Motion Picture</title>
		<description><![CDATA[B-Fest, Day 1 &#8212;  
Well, it&#8217;s about 2:30 or so, and I&#8217;m sitting in the airport awaiting my 4:40 flight to Chicago, home of B-Fest (among other things).  After years of reading about B-Fest, yes, I&#8217;m actually going, which means that buying the ticket and airfare actually meant something.  This weekend will [...]]]></description>

		<title>Some recent works-in-progress</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Both photos were taken using the flash, for which I apologize.  Generally, they&#8217;re pretty accurate but without the light bounces.
First, Embryonic Space Jockey:

Very different from the last version, but coming along nicely I think.
Next, we have Telephone Girl, who is very, very, very close to completion:

Next stop, Chicago.  See you soon, and thanks [...]]]></description>

		<title>We&#8217;re on the eve of B-Fest</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So, after reading about B-Fest for years and years and thinking, &#8220;Boy, I wish I coulda been there!&#8221; I&#8217;m actually going to go tomorrow.  So who knows?  In a few days, when you read all the various participants&#8217; diaries of films and moments, mine might be right in there with the rest of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Some recent sightings</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, while I pause in the midst of more graphic creations, I&#8217;ve been seeing some pretty good films lately, what with all this spare time.  As a super-special ultra mega bonus, all of the movies I&#8217;ve seen in the past two days were good ones!
Coraline I thought was very well done, nicely imaginative, though [...]]]></description>

		<title>From the Used Book Store</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Got some classics on my recent trip to the used book store. I&#8217;m pretty sure these are in the public domain now, but no one has formatted them for the Kindle. Go figure!




I also found a vintage magazine!

A larger version of the last one can be seen here.

		<title>Some of them are old, hope a few could smile</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, 2009 has been quite a year so far.  I&#8217;m betting it will get worse, but since this is not an autobiographical blog, that&#8217;s all I&#8217;ll say. 
So, how about some pictures?  Some recent paintings, in various states of conclusion.  To wit, and with admittedly somewhat cursory descriptions appended thereupon:

The Crowd.  This one popped out pretty quickly, [...]]]></description>

		<title>In Conclusion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Four years ago to the day, I started this blog.  It seems only fitting that I end it now on the very same day.  Something about symmetry, I think.
Before you ask, no, I&#8217;m not moving to a new hosting system.  
I&#8217;m going to stop blogging entirely, for the foreseeable future.
When I first floated this decision to [...]]]></description>

		<title>Watching Things</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As we wind down, I thought I would list the anime series that I consider highly recommendable.  As a super special bonus, I actually have ten titles in this top ten.  (Well, technically nine and a half&#8230;)
The shows listed below are not separated into any categories other than I thought they were excellent examples of story-telling.  [...]]]></description>
