So I've been working on my essay about aesthetics, and it's taking longer than I expected, and I suddenly realize I'm writing the word "so" about twice a paragraph. So I guess we all have our personal language tics. So I guess I'm no Peter Gabriel.

So I finished last in the Primey balloting for best baseball weblog. I'm not surprised. My finishing first would be akin to a cartoon winning the Best Picture Oscar. The award for sites like mine is simply to be nominated. So congratulations to the winners.

So speaking of cartoons, I made one while my brain got stuck on the aesthetics essay. It's a fanimutation with a baseball twist. It's actually a "translation" of a Swedish fanimutationish flash video called "Ansiktsburk", which in turn is a "translation" into Swedish of a Lebanese pop song from the early 1980's.

So if you have Flash 6.0 or greater, you can view my cartoon, "Fur Hat" (300kb).
