Hi everybody - Happy New Year!

Bunny and I got back from our desert walk yesterday - a few days sooner than we had originally planned. What happened was I accidentally stepped in a hole and hurt my leg. I can’t walk so good now so we came back. Not a great way to start out the new year but as Bunny pointed out, at least I wasn’t run over by a car or get bitten on the face by a rattlesnake. That’s Bunny - always looking on the bright side.

We did get some things resolved though. For one thing, a rough schedule for the first part of this year has been mapped out. I’ve been wanting to learn more about where I’ve come from. Not just literally (”I’m from Hawaii”), but also I feel like I need to understand more about where I’ve been and why I am the way I am, before I can clearly see the path I need to follow in the future.

I think I mentioned it before that I was born (somewhere) in Hawaii, right? Well I left Hawaii when I was pretty small because I was feeling really curious and wanted to see the U.S. mainland. That’s when I left home and not too long after that I met Bunny, we traveled around for a while, and then afterwards we settled here in the desert and started doing The Pinky Show. But lately I’ve been thinking about Hawaii more and more. There’s a little voice inside my head that keeps telling me that there’s something there that I need to understand before I’m going to be able to really understand the United States.

I called up my good friend in Hawaii (I lived with her before, when I was still kind of like a kitten) and asked her if we could stay with her while we do some research about Hawaii. She said yes, we can stay as long as we like. We still have to figure out some of the details and there’s a few things that need to be wrapped up before we can go anywhere, but I’m already starting to feel excited about going back and getting started.

Kim and Mimi haven’t decided yet if they want to go to Hawaii or stay here in the desert. They want to go but they also want to be here for the desert flowers they think might be blossoming this spring (we had rain this winter). I told them there’s lots of flowers in Hawaii - all the time. o.O

Daisy said he’ll come along if we need his help. I said “Of course we need your help.”

I know what you guys are wondering - if you all go to Hawaii, who’s going to take care of the ants? I think the ants can run around free for a few months, they’ll be just fine.

I’m going to write more in this diary this year. That’s one of my new year’s resolutions.

Pinky the genius stepped in a hole and stress fractured her leg. So we had to come back early (Wednesday). So instead of a peaceful walk in the desert we will continue our new year planning from the usual boring kitchen/dining/study table. Pinky forgot to mention in her diary that she stepped in the hole only about 10 seconds after saying “Wow look at all these holes!”

Bunny

Bunny and I are tentatively scheduled to fly to Hawaii to start work on our series of episodes on Hawaii on Jan 13 (that’s a Sunday). I’m pretty good at disguising myself as a suitcase but I think Bunny better start practicing otherwise this whole trip is not going to happen.

Kim and Mimi will be coming to help out whenever they can, but probably won’t be able to be there most of the time. They both have regular jobs as well as an upcoming non-Pinky Show project for which they have to be in India for a couple of weeks in February.

Daisy will meet us in Hawaii a little later. He’s currently in Paris for who knows what. He’s always on the move.

~ pinky

Pinky and I (Bunny) are now in Hawaii. We may not be able to post as many blogs while we are here (not sure about access to computers, etc.).

We are staying with a friend at her house in the middle of a rain forest. This is not like the desert at all and the humidity is making me all frizzy.

We have a busy schedule. Even in our first 24 hours here we have learned a lot. Pinky or I will report back with more as soon as we get some ‘free time’.

Bunny

P.S. Ahi poke is my new favorite food. It is SO GOOD.

[ Kim: What's ahi poke? ]

[ Bunny: I found the picture below here. ]

We have a new Pinky Show Radio episode. Today’s topic: What’s Wrong with GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms)? It’s an interview with Jeffrey Smith, founder of the Institute for Responsible Technology. It’s a fairly in-depth interview (almost 45 minutes) - a nice change from the typical 5-minute radio story or 1-minute news story. You can listen to the show here:

http://www.pinkyshow.org/archives/episodes/080124/

Just posted our newest ‘episode’. It is a re-presentation of an excellent documentary made in 2006 by Na Maka o ka Aina for Earthjustice, the non-profit public interest law firm. A quick summary:

When the biotech industry decides to use the lands and people of Hawaii as its test guinea pig, local farmers, activists, researchers, and others speak out.

You can watch the video here:

Hi. Pinky and I are finally back in the desert and production on our multi-part Hawaii project is already moving forward. Tentatively we are thinking that it will end up being a four-part project. Part 1 is a two-take quickie tour of the island of Oahu and kind of functions like an introduction. Part 2 is about colonialism and settler colonialism. Part 3 is a case study of colonial space. Part 4 is kind of like an oral history piece. We may add other parts later. Hawaii is an amazing and complex place and I hope we will be going back soon in order to learn more.

Also the fish in Hawaii is fantastic.

We have a very nice interview with Captain Charles Moore of Algalita Marine Research Foundation - click here to read it.

By the way, Capt. Moore and crew just finished their month-long 2008 expedition through the North Pacific Gyre. The AMRF website has an excellent blog with lots of photos that documents the entire voyage with daily entries. If you like the PS interview I think you will enjoy reading the blog too. You can find it here (note: the entries are posted blog-style, with the earliest entries at the bottom of the page and the most recent at the top - in other words you gotta read these things backwards).

Stay away from those plastics.

Pretty soon. As of right now we have 2,921,545 views. When we hit 3 million all four of us + Daisy are going to celebrate with donuts and coffee. The Iraq War: Legal or Illegal episode went over 1 million YT views a few days ago too.

Also, for those of you who hate us so much and keep sending us threats and hate e-mail, please keep them coming. Nothing amuses me more than reading your pathetic and stupid comments.

Right now we are in the middle of producing our Hawaii episodes so we are not blogging as often. Our apologies to those of you who like the blogs. Kim & Mimi are busy doing some non-PS stuff at the moment so I can’t ask them to blog.

Bunny.

I just made a new area to acknowledge all those who have supported us with donations since day 1. You can check it out here. The new system will be able to accept short comments or dedications from now on - isn’t that cool?

- Bunny

We have a new area of our PS website. It’s called “Pinky Presents” and it features educational videos made by others. I made this area because in spite of trying to be super clear that we didn’t make Islands at Risk: Genetic Engineering in Hawaii, we got several e-mails sent to us that made us realize that some people out there thought we made that video. Well we don’t want to take credit for anybody else’s work so now we have this new area.

Anyway, in addition to having the new area, there is also a new video in that area for you to watch. It is also by Na Maka o ka Aina and is called We Are Who We Were: From Resistance to Affirmation. When was the last time you got to see a video about Native Hawaiian sovereignty from a Native perspective? The Na Maka website has about a hundred videos - go check it out. I haven’t seen them all but in my opinion Faces of the Nation and Act of War: The Overthrow of the Hawaiian Nation should be required viewing for every American.

- Bunny

Pinky’s interview with Jeffrey Smith - a.k.a. What’s Wrong With GMOs? - is currently being featured in YouTube’s Education area. Which means that for the next few days we will be slugging it out with other YouTube educational videos for viewer supremacy - videos by hot babes (I use the term loosely) teaching about word origins, and real live (”live”) college professors explaining the finer points of ’storytelling theory and practice’. The competition is intense.

Also, I just added a few entries in our Specials Area - human beings and some other stuff. And for those of you who haven’t been following the Wikileaks controversy - go check it out. Very, very interesting.

- Bunny

Looks like the internet gods like Pinky. Not only is today Pinky’s birthday, we also hit the 3 million views mark at YouTube. Coincidence?

To celebrate Pinky’s 6th birthday we are going to catch a ride into LA and go looking for a comic book store. I told her I’ll buy her a copy of Persepolis if we find one.

Production on the Hawaii episodes is going well. We’re kind of doing them “all at once” but will be finishing them individually, in order. We’ll have the first episode (the intro) released before the end of the month, and the others will follow fairly quickly thereafter.

No other news to report.

- Bunny

We are a little behind schedule with our production schedule. We’d been hoping to release the first episode of our Hawaii: The Colony series before April but it’s already March 28 so it looks like it’s not going to happen. Pinky’s been really sick for a couple of months now and so we still haven’t gotten around to doing the audio recording for the episode. She still sounds pretty miserable and spends a lot of time lying around saying “guuuuuhhh…… bleh…” or something similar. The upside is that we’ve had more time to do more revisions to the script (parts two and three included) so I guess that’ll be a good thing in the long run.

We’ve been receiving e-mails from people in various European countries (Germany, Poland, etc.) telling us that our GMO episodes on YouTube are being ‘blocked’ by someone. Is it YouTube or is it their governments? I have no idea. If anybody knows who’s responsible for this sort of thing, please let me know.

Posted by Bunny

Last Friday I mentioned that we have been receiving e-mails from some people in Europe saying that they can no longer access our What’s Wrong with GMOs? episode at YouTube. Well, the story checks out: visiting the YouTube site via an anonymous European proxy server returns the message ‘video not available’ if you try to access the GMO video. Okay. But looking into the matter I’m discovering that there’s actually all kinds of weird things going on at YouTube.

For example: If you do a YouTube search for ‘GMO’, our What’s Wrong with GMOs? video - although being the most popular video on the subject by far - is buried way down in page 3 results, right next to all the other videos nobody ever watches. Our Islands at Risk: Genetic Engineering in Hawaii video is also receiving the same treatment (search: “GMO taro”).

Some of our YouTube subscribers have e-mailed us asking whey they’ve been ‘unsubscribed’ from our YouTube channel. Others have been asking us if we’ve been deleting their comments (we never delete comments).

Strangely enough, if you do a search for “Iraq War Illegal”, our The Iraq War: Legal or Illegal? video still pops in at number 1 (1 million+ views). Our Vietnam War video comes in on the first page of returns, as does our illegal immigration video. So why is our GMO episode (only ~40,000 views) being suppressed in Europe? Is it related to the pressure the U.S. is exerting on European countries to accept GMO? I don’t know.

As you can imagine it’s going to be very difficult to find out what exactly is going on at YouTube/Google. Censoring a nobody organization like The Pinky Show is easy - we’re not the New York Times and don’t have a small army of researchers or lawyers to look into this.

Bunny

My friend Teacup recommended this video to us and we all thought it was an excellent presentation. It’s a Creative Commons (3.0) video so I decided to post it in the Pinky Presents area. I hope lots of people watch it. If you find yourself moved by the analysis there’s an excellent website at www.storyofstuff.com with a ton more great resources - an excellent blog (by Annie Leonard), an extensive NGO list, reading list, organizing materials, etc.

This is a great lecture that Pinky turned me on to late last night. I was sleepy but it was so good I ended up listening to the whole thing and going to bed at 4 a.m. You can listen to it here. It’s audio only so I stuck a Wikipedia photo of Dr. Yunus on it.

After I listened to the lecture Pinky and I were looking up some microcredit info when we ran into the Kiva website (www.kiva.org). This is a website that allows anybody to make a tiny loan to somebody who really needs money to start up some kind of business or other life-sustaining project. Excellent idea, I think I can do this. My felt can wait.

There is no such thing as a disposable plastic bag, so please stop using them. I printed up a small batch of these cute Pinky Show tote bags and we’ve been using them for everything - marketing, transporting books to and from the library, carrying rocks, etc.

Get your own Pinky Show tote bag! Our tote bags are super cute, 100% cotton, very strong, and made in USA. Support The Pinky Show and the oceans and landfills will thank you too.

[ Please read this whole message - I promise it won't take you more than 3 minutes! ]

Hi! This is Pinky - I’m writing to tell you about some great news we just received!

The Pinky Show has been offered a challenge grant from the Pierre and Pamela Omidyar Fund of the Hawaii Community Foundation. What that means is that for a limited time, any donation that’s made in support of The Pinky Show will be half-matched by their organization. For example, if you were to make a donation of $100, the Pierre and Pamela Omidyar Fund would then donate $50 to us too. After so much struggling to keep The Pinky Show alive, this could really make a huge difference for us!

I just wrote a short appeal to put on our donations page, I’ll include a bit of it here:

“…People often forget that we will not have a world-society defined by peace and justice unless we are willing to fight for it, one mind at a time. So far The Pinky Show has been successful in bringing our message of openness and compassion for all living beings to a fairly large international audience - over 5 million episode views from over 155 countries. But keeping our project alive has been extremely difficult. Only 1 out of approximately 10,000 viewers actually takes it upon themselves to support our work…”

5 million views is a lot! And that’s not even counting all the people that use our videos offline - raising awareness in classrooms, workshops, teach-ins, community & adult education, public access television, and so on.

Since we started this project about three years ago, we’ve received thousands of expressions of solidarity and thanks via e-mail from people all over the world. But unfortunately, not too many donations. We sincerely appreciate the well-wishing, but we do need material support in order to create new episodes, pay our server fees, upkeep our equipment & software, and not die of starvation.

We’re trying to do this project in what we consider to be “the right way” - no pay-per-view, no commercials in our videos, no advertisements plastered all over our website, no sweatshop t-shirts for sale in our store, no DRM, and so on. All of these decisions we’ve made represent a particular set of values we believe in - openness, justice, and compassion for others. By deciding to make direct donations from our viewers the foundation upon which we continue (or don’t continue) our work, The Pinky Show project has also become for us an experiment. We are genuinely curious to know if people really do believe that a tiny, committed group of individuals can change the world for the better by taking on enormous challenges. We chose consciousness as the site of intervention and we’re dedicating our lives to putting as large a dent as possible in Domination and Exploitation of all kinds.

So along with the great news, I’m also ending with an appeal. If you’ve ever thought that you’d like to support our work, there’s never been a better time than right now. I sincerely hope you’ll give it some serious consideration.

Thank you,

pinky

note: Your donations to The Pinky Show are tax deductable. The Pinky Show is a project of Associated Animals Inc., a 501(c)(3) educational non-profit organization.

We’ve just opened a brand new area on our website called the Commons Gallery. There’s not much in it at the moment but we’ll keep adding content in the coming months. In the future we think this area will become a very important part of our Pinky Show project.

Update (6/16): We just got word from the Arlington Arts Center exhibition curator that the title of the upcoming show will be Picturing Politics, 2008: Artists Speak to Power.

“The intersection of art and politics will be the subject of an exhibition organized by Washington artist, independent curator, and critic Rex Weil. The show will examine a wide array of strategies in contemporary visual arts for addressing controversial issues and promoting social change in a political landscape dominated by mass media.” (from the AAC website)

If any of you in the Washington, D.C. area are able to go to the show, we’d be really grateful if you could take a snapshot of our work installed in the museum for us. This will be our first art show and it’d be really cool if we could post a picture of that to our website! Thanks, Bunny

The long lost shipment of Tote Bags from American Apparel FINALLY arrived yesterday afternoon *shakes clenched paw at American Apparel*, so the Pinky Show designs have been lovingly applied and the tote bags promptly shipped out this morning. My personal apologies to those of you who had to wait the extra weeks for your order to ship. For all the late orders we’ve included a small letter of apology plus secret mini-present on the side that I hope you will enjoy.

Thank you again for your support of The Pinky Show and please excuse my grumpy picture (above) - Pinky still has not made me a non-grumpy picture, which I’m starting to think she’s purposely dragging her feet on.

Hi. We have a new video: see it here.

Pinky & I made this video for the launch of the new NEO.org website. It’s a neat site based in Switzerland where you publicly state your intent to change the world for the better. The basic idea, as I understand it, is that you have to have right thought before you can have right action. Pinky and I have a couple of problems with the language of the declaration so we’ll be writing an open letter to the authors of the Neo Declaration and the Neo community. But overall we think it’s good and when I finish writing my declaration of intent I’ll be posting it there. Pinky already did hers.

We have a bunch more videos almost done. Please stay tuned.

- Bunny

Here in the United States, July 4 is also known as “Independence Day”. As President Bush spoke today in a Fourth of July speech to the nation from Monticello, Virginia:

“You represent many different ethnicities and races and religions. But you all have one thing in common - and that is a shared love of freedom. This love of liberty is what binds our nation together, and this is the love that makes us all Americans.”

My theory is that there are other people around the world, who are not Americans, who also love things like liberty and freedom. So I think it’d be terrific if all the freedom-loving Americans President Bush is talking to would stand up and commit themselves to stopping their own country from denying freedom and self-determination to people elsewhere. Seriously, you can’t have democracy and occupation at the same time.

To acknowledge the concept of independence, today we release a new episode - Iraq Under Occupation: Raed Jarrar decodes the misinformation. I admit it’s a little long (~ 1 hr 10 min), but I hope everyone who is not already familiar with Raed Jarrar or his work will take the time to watch it. It is crucial that every American understand the implications of what he is saying.

Watch the video here.

[ note from Kim: Please be careful of hot dogs and soda, they are not good for you no matter how yummy they are. *smack smack* ]

Yesterday morning we shipped our Pinky Show stuff to Arlington for the Picturing Politics 2008 exhibition. I couldn’t believe how expensive it was to ship - I think it was about $160 - more if you include the ridiculous amount of bubblewrap and coroplast Pinky used to wrap everything up. (Can you say “anal retentive”?)

Anyway, if any of you live near Washington D.C., please go see the show (August 15-September 27). And if you could take a picture of our work in the show, that’d be great because we can’t afford to actually travel to Arlington to see the show ourselves. If we get any good pictures of our work installed in the AAC galleries I’d like to include it in the On Native Land entry in our Commons Gallery.

By the way, in response to questions about the art pieces (For example, “But what does it mean???”, etc.), Pinky has expanded the explanatory notes that appear as mouse-overs in the gallery. You have to put your cursor over the picture in order to have the notes pop up.

Bunny

[ Kim: Lost in all this is Bunny forgot to mention that the art work came out really beautiful! Just wanted to say that! ^_^ ]

We have a new art show in our Commons Gallery. Deborah Kelly and Tina Fiveash are two artists from Australia and this work is from their series ‘Hey hetero!’. It’s been shown in various cities around the world but not here in the U.S. Pinky deserves credit for organizing and assembling this mini-show, but a big ‘Thank You’ to Deborah & Tina for graciously allowing us to re-present their work to… everyone else reading this.

Before meeting Pinky I can’t say I was particularly interested in “art” (whatever that is), but I like work like this. I think it’s powerful and can really make people reflect in a way that’s very different from reading an essay or hearing a lecture. Check it out.

Oh by the way, if you like what you see, you can go here for more from Tina and Deborah:

Tina Fiveash’s website: www.tinafiveash.com.au

One of Deborah Kelly’s project websites: www.bewareofthegod.com

If you like these mini-art shows send us an e-mail so that we’ll know if we should make more or what.

We’ve created a new survey for teachers/educators.

Feedback is very important to us - it not only helps us to understand how people are using our work; positive quotes and testimonials are also very helpful when we submit grant applications. So if you do any kind of teaching - at a school, university, community center, your living room, or anywhere else for that matter - please help us to make a difference by taking a few minutes to fill out a survey.

So if you know any teachers that use/love/hate The Pinky Show, please send them the above link. Or, if you know any teachers who don’t already know about the Pinky Show project, please introduce them to our website. We don’t have a budget for advertising, public relations, or marketing - everything is ‘word of mouth’. Thank you!

For those of you feeling left out, don’t worry. We’ll be coming out with a student survey in the near future.

We just released a new video episode - it’s an interview with Clifford Thornton Jr. on the subject of The War On Drugs. Take a look at it in our archives.

Just published in the Conversations Area: an interview with Phyllis Bennis on U.S.-Iran relations. If you’ve ever felt “generally confused” about Iran and its nuclear program, possible U.S. military strikes, and so on, I think you’ll find this article very helpful.

I added a bunch of new designs to our store including shirts, a tote bag, and stickers! Also, our Winter Solstice Shirt Fundraiser is back! Any 10 shirts in a box for $200! Wow, that’s only $20 for a limited run, hand(paw?)-printed, super-soft premium shirt made in the U.S.A. by American Apparel! AND it has Pinky-drawn cats on it??? That’s crazy! Place your order soon before our shirts run out.

Why is this important? Well, because…

…we have VERY LITTLE TIME remaining to meet our fundraising goals! The end of the year is fast approaching and the half-matching challenge grant from the Pierre & Pamela Omidyar Fund will go *poof!* after that. We’ve been trying our hardest to do all kids of relationship building and fundraising because we’re looking for signs as to whether people think the Pinky Show project is worth supporting or not. 100% of all monies raised goes directly into the project - please help us continue our work.

Misc. Hawaii update:
We’re still working on the Hawaii series. Pinky’s already re-worked the intro section about 80 million times - which is okay I guess because that’s the most difficult part and I don’t want to force her to release it until she’s satisfied. I’m sure it’ll be pretty soon. Meanwhile the subsequent parts continue to move nicely towards completion.

Don’t forget to take good care of yourself as you fight the forces of evil!

Hi everybody. We just posted a new episode - it’s supposedly about museums, but actually it’s also an introduction to the ideological nature of all cultural institutions. This is the first episode where Kim does the presentation and I’m guessing it’ll be most popular with our friends in cultural studies, museum studies, studio arts, and other stuff like that. We’ll be doing some follow-up episodes in the future on this subject-area, for now we just wanted to make a small opening. Here it is:

http://www.pinkyshow.org/archives/episodes/081108_museums/

Also, I wanted to point out that we made a free, downloadable poster that goes along with the episode. If you want it, you can retrieve it (it’s a PDF file) from the We Love Museums… entry in the episode archives list:

http://www.pinkyshow.org/archives/archivesdate.html

We’ve got a lot of stuff going on around here, please check back often as several of our episodes are entering the final stages of production and we’ll be posting them as we finish them.

The Pinky Show website was hacked yesterday. Bunny set to work right away and got things back to normal so our website is once again free from malicious code.

But for all PC users, if you visited us yesterday or today (November 11 or November 12), it is possible that your computer may have been infected with a trojan virus. As a precaution, Bunny recommends that you scan and protect your computer with an up-to-date anti-virus program.

This is not the first time people have tried to forcibly shut us down and I’m sure it won’t be the last. But like I said last time, it’s not possible to stop cats from doing something once we’ve set our minds to it. All attempts to silence us will ultimately fail.

1. Almost a year and a half ago we received an invitation to participate in a series of debates and an accompanying exhibition on global practices in radical education. Well what seemed so far away before has now finally arrived and Pinky, Daisy, and I will fly to Slovenia this coming Monday (Nov. 24) to participate in the events; Kim & Mimi will stay behind and water the plants, feed the ants, etc. The program was organized by the Radical Education Collective (Slovenia) and the exhibition will be held at the gallery Škuc in Ljubljana. The talks will include representatives from education groups from all over: Contra Filé (Brazil), Dostje!, H.I.J.O.S. (Guatemala), La Lleca (Mexico), Radical Education, Section for Latin America, Social Center Rog, Universidad Nómada, Zampa di Leone (Serbia), Albert Heta (Kosova), Agon Hamza (Kosova), Hajrudin Hromadžić, Helena Popović, and us. From the curatorial statement:

“There is no silence, we are here to speak. About memories that give us strength to organize social struggles. About networks that move into new territories. About art as experience and experiment. About cultural hybrids and political mutants. About practices of freedom and about different social relations.”

We are going to Slovenia to share and learn, I’m sure we’ll return with many new ideas for the future. Pinky will take notes and give a report when we get back. We will be there for six days of dialogue/work, I think we might also have one day to relax and sight-see around Ljubljana. Assuming all goes according to plan, we will be back home on December 5.

2. Any orders placed in our online store between Nov. 24 and Dec. 5 will be mailed out as soon as we return from Slovenia. Mimi & Kim don’t know how to do that stuff.

3. One of the objectives of our Pinky Show project is to create materials that teachers can use to encourage meaningful dialogue and reflection in their classes. To this end, I finally got around to making & posting downloadable PDF versions of the globalization cartoons, the museum poster, and so on. This makes using them as handouts easier. They are scattered throughout the Pinky Show archives. We hope you find them useful.

- Bunny

Hello again. We’ve been back from Slovenia almost a week now and things are getting back to normal. Pinky and I both got sick on the trip but I got better fast and Pinky’s still sick. Sickly, that cat. The trip itself was amazing. We’re making a narrated slide show with about 100 photos we took over there and will release that soon. Pinky’s pretty much done with the writing but I think maybe I’ll have to narrate it this time because she still sounds weird and is coughing a lot.

In other news, while we were in Slovenia the folks at the Arlington Arts Center sent back the art work that we had in the Picturing Politics 2008 exhibition. Originally we were planning on keeping all the stuff we made for ourselves (because we like it), but the end of the year is quickly approaching and we’re still short on our fundraising efforts, so after much discussion (grrr!) we decided to put them up for auction on eBay. The auctions run for only a week so if you’ve been clenching your teeth, agonizing over not being able to own either or both of these gorgeous+ masterworks - now’s your chance! Yes, these are the very same paw-signed originals from the AAC show! WOW! (well, maybe not so ‘wow’, but they are very nice…) And of course 100% of any funds generated from the auctions will go to the production of new PS episodes. Interested? Click on the pictures below to check out the auctions!

…or…

By the way, don’t forget to look at our blog. Later tonight I’m going to post a link to an excellent documentary my friend sent me - War Made Easy by the folks at Media Education Foundation. Required watching - send your friends.

Bunny

I posted an auction on ebay for a Pinky doll kit. We’ve had lots of requests for these so now is your chance to get the last one and help out The Pinky Show at the same time. It took some effort, but I convinced Kim to give up her kit.

The auction ends Monday so put in your bid soon!
