Guest Blog Post on BMJ2K

I was asked by the site host for BMJ2K to write a guest post for his blog (thanks for the thought Barry) and I found myself wondering what to blog about.  I skipped anything I had an idea for that involved New York because Barry writes the New York Minute and I didn’t want to step on any toes.  Next I tried to not write anything that would normally show up on either his or my blog, again, to do something different.  Then, I was inspired by the holidays, and more importantly new and made up holidays.  Enjoy, I hope you like my out there ramble :)

11/11/11 Remembrance Day / Veteran’s Day

Posted on by

If you listened to the first Nutty Border Battles (Nutty Border Crossing?) you heard Tek and I talk about how Remembrance day is observed in Canada with school children reciting the poem “Flanders Fields”

Skinner Co. who produce Flash Pulp got their crew to do a recording for us for this day.

I plan to put a full Nutty Border Crossing on this topic but haven’t recorded all of the audio yet.

IN FLANDERS FIELDS POEM
By Lieutenant Colonel John McCrae

In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place: and in the sky
The larks still bravely singing fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead: Short days ago,
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved and were loved: and now we lie
In Flanders fields!

Take up our quarrel with the foe
To you, from failing hands, we throw
The torch: be yours to hold it high
If ye break faith with us who die,
We shall not sleep, though poppies grow
In Flanders fields

Some tips for Halloween:

  • Use baby wipes to remove make up from you, kids or anyone.
  • Eat something before going out trick or treating, make sure the kids eat too, full tummies mean happier people.
  • Don’t get too snarking with the teens, you don’t want them egging your car.
  • Comment on the costumes of the kids who ring your bell, you will make their day.
  • Play some scary movies.
  • Dress up, eat candy and have fun.

The Clockwork Doc makes the top ten list

A good friend, Robin of mine just started bloging for the DVice website, her first article was on costuming so she asked about steampunk, which of course lead her to Tek’s Clockwork Doctor costume.

Click here for the article

If you click through the costumes you will find the description and how each person made their costume, some have more detail then others.  (Tek always likes to say, he glued himself to himself five times with three different substances while making the costume)

Please take a look at the whole article, there are some really cool costumes there other then Tek’s, including some nifty Dr Who ones.

Leave a comment too, this is Robin’s first article there and I think she did a great job.  Make sure you let her know you like articles about people who make their own costumes.
