PERSONAL FUN FACT: What luck was it that I got not one, but TWO Funtime Barbie outfits together?!!! In October 2024, my sister and I purchased the "Storage Sweeties Lot" at the local flea market. It ended up being a great find, because there were quite a few original outfits to dolls we already had included. I conveniently had two Funtime Barbies sans factory fashions. And wouldn't you know that the ones in the "Storage Sweeties Lot" were the two color variations I didn't have. The other one was the blue outfit, which I only had the shorts to before. Anyways, this pink getup isn't in as quite nice condition as the blue ensemble. The clock is missing the hands. But otherwise it is stellar looking. There was only one headband and pair of socks in the lot, so I just borrowed them for both photos. These fashions are so sparkly and unforgettable. I'm not sure that anyone would wear such looks in real life, but they are so much fun.
As I remember we got this disposable camera in a box of cereal in 1997 and stuck it in the refrigerator to play with later. The expiration date on the box said 1999 and the promotion picture was for the movie “The Lost World: Jurassic Park” which was released in 1997. A while back I got a camera that uses Rapid (SL) cassettes and I was looking for an extra cassette and I had read online that sometimes disposable cameras have a cassette in them that is the same size as a Rapid cassette. I remembered we had an old disposable camera in the fridge, but rather than just breaking it open I decided to shoot and develop the film. To my surprise the pictures came out fine. The negs were dense but fixable in an image editor once scanned. The bigger surprise, however, was that there was a publicity picture for the movie on the roll of Julianne Moore holding a Nikon F5. What a nice bonus. Turned out the film in the camera was not in a Rapid sized cassette. It was a standard 35mm cassette of Kodak Gold 800 film.
In late October of last year I was invited to participate in a cool project known as the Scribble Project. So above is the completed interview sheet that I submitted.

Even though it was cloudy, and late in the day, the light was too bright on their eyes. I like their expressions.
Recently i have bought a bike for a close friend as a birthday present. My mate and i went on a test ride around Melbourne and discover many part of the city i have never seen before
CLARION ALLEY in SAN FRANCISCO is known for it's incredible GRAFFITI & MURAL SIZE STREET ART. The works change every so often, usually when some a-0's destroy a piece with dumb tags. It's worth coming down to the Mission/Valencia corridor to experience a long tradition of street art. This alley used to be just political inspired murals. Now the art runs a gambit of fun to political.. (HINT: lots of trendy restaurants on the connecting Valencia Street. Though the alley is not really safe at dusk/night)
