Comic strip by Box Brown, who has art on sale here. imdb says:

During the filming of some scenes for The Princess Bride, the weather became markedly cold for Robin Wright Penn. Andre the Giant helped her by placing one of his hands over her head; his hands were so large that one would entirely cover the top of her head, keeping her warm.

Update on those cereal boxes planted by Ron English

From Ron English's site:

Hi Ron,
I just wanted to let you know that I just spoke to one of the managers at the Ralph's on Lincoln Blvd. in Venice, CA, and he said that they had found some cereal boxes with stickers on the front of them over the weekend. When I questioned him about what they had done with them, he said, "we don't sell such cereals, so we removed them and had to send them back to our main office." So even though I'm extremely bummed about not finding them in time, I hope that you will take some joy in knowing that some of your art is right now sitting on the shelf of some executive at Ralph's main office.

1. Robert Cringely:

it’s suddenly clear why Apple didn’t introduce the iPhone 5 this week. It would have been lost in the news of Jobs’s death, killing the marketing value he would have loved. I’m sure the phone will appear in a week or two with that appearance in part to encourage the recovery of Apple shares from what is sure to be a short-term decline.

(I don't think he's joking.)

2. Small tree with tiny tire swing.

3. Tim Burton movie-themed craft and costume ideas.
