It’s my first Etch-A-Sketch Masterpiece in Decades!

by Jay Versluis on January 5, 2010

We were passing through a service station in Beaconsfield very late yesterday and spent a spontaneous night at the Etap Hotel. It’s connected via a walkway to a 24hr neon world of McDonald’s, Starbuck’s and an Arcade featurung Outrun 2. It felt just like Vegas!

We discovered a Pocket Etch-A-Sketch at WH Smith, and I was immediately ported back to my childhood days. Hoping my wife would talk me out of it, she said that’s a great idea and bought it for me. Now I’m hooked!

Featurung the same ingredients as back in the seventies, and of course the same impossible drawing technique, I love playing with it. Now I have the added benefit of sending my creations via mobile uploads to this site and immortalise them. Sweet!

Here’s the first of (possibly many other) weird and wonderful lineographic masterpieces entitled “Dude” from my brand new high tech gadet! Enjoy…

Suspicious Sandwich from K-Mart in Key Largo

July 26, 2009

Imagine this: you buy a deep filled sandwich for an incredible $2.89 (that’s about £1.50 if that). Even though it’s a bit stodgy, can you believe that the sell by date is THREE WEEKS from now? What on earth is IN this thing? And when was it made? I guess some things are best left [...]

The #Miamibeach Report – Day 8

July 24, 2009

Art Deco is as funky as it comes down here, up and down the beach. We had to change hotels today and moved from the magnificent Richmond Hotel on 17th street further up north to the Circa 39 on 39th street. It’s a long story, and I won’t bore you with the details… With all [...]
