It is finally October which means the smell of maple spice, burning firewood, and pumpkin pie fill the air. After having grown up with the Peanuts' “It's the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown” and Ray Bradbury's book “The October Country”, I understand how much this month is cherished. Fall ...

The Fantastic World of Aircraft Nose Pin-Up Art

kawaiidaigakusei at 12:00AM, Sept. 22, 2014



It is difficult to imagine a greater canvas than the nose of an aircraft to display art. I love to visit aviation museums to look at each individual plane, but one part I always like to pay special attention to is the art displayed near the front of the plane ...

FRIDAY NEWPOST - "FanService" and Sexy Ladies in Comics

HippieVan at 12:00AM, Sept. 12, 2014
