Here's a great ARTICLE on Rock-Paper-Scissors. More specifically, it's about the expansion of the game to include more gestures, such as Sam Kass' "Rock Paper Scissors Lizard Spock" (recently referred to on "Big Bang Theory," but it's actually been around since the 1990s) and also my RPS-101 version & other variants. |

This PACKRAT comic will have to tide you over until July; our hero will be taking a month off to clean out his attic looking for his spare CS-80. |
|
Check out all the NEW T-SHIRTS!! There are tons of funny designs in the shop today. You are going to want to buy them, because they are kickass. Seriously, check it out. |
|
This month, the PACKRAT laments how tough it is to upgrade software. |
|
Here's a new PACKRAT FACEBOOK PAGE! Go "Like" it, assuming you like it. |
|
Despite the whole time-traveling plotline finally being done, this month's PACKRAT is nevertheless stuck in the past. |
|
At some point in the past week or so, while I wasn't looking, umop.com got checked out by VISITOR 1,000,000 since its birth in early 1999! Unfortunately, it's approximate, based on the fact that I was only able to estimate the first 10,000 views, before I got that little pagecounter thingy down on the bottom of the page in 2002. Still, it's an (approximately) incredible feat for a private art site by some shlub who got lucky with a couple of his animations. Thanks to everyone for visiting & especially those who have supported the work along the way! |

Hey! So there's a brand new social networking site out there called ZURKER. I just signed up yesterday. I like it better than Facebook... there's no ads or spam. If you want to connect with me, click the big green "Z" over there. Once you sign up, drop me a line & let me know I referred you from umop... |
|
The PACKRAT has finally arrived home from his time traveling adventures! The first thing he does is to smash his DeLorean-inspired keytar. Sheesh, he could have at least done this onstage somewhere. |
|
Introducing a new VIDEO SERIES! Check out WEDNESDAY NIGHT JAMS WITH LEE-ANN which is, as you might guess, a weekly musical offering from my wife Lee-Ann Lovelace. Right now the plan is to showcase a new song every week, with various guest musicians as their availability arises. This first episode features me and her turning in a fun basement keyboard jam of one of her original tunes ("Make Me Stay"), but future installments could feature live performances in various local venues. If you're interested, please go to her YouTube Channel and click "Subscribe!" |

The PACKRAT ends up a bit too far into the future. About 100 years too far. |
|
Just added a very long-overdue update on Myrtle, my 1998 Pathfinder truck, in the far-too-large CAR HISTORY. It details an 8,800-mile road trip now famous to our friends and family members, along with a few pictures from the trek. For being such a bomber, Myrtle is the bomb! |
|
THE PACKRAT gets a massive time-traveling analog boost at a notable 1985 synth concert. Where will he end up next? |
|
Would you like to be able to purchase a LEGO SET designed by me? Well, first you and 9,999 other people have to support it over at LEGO CUUSOO. It's a giant, 500-piece Space Station designed to evoke the "Classic Space" look of 1978-1980, when the world was basically a better place all around. Go check it out and click "SUPPORT!" |
|
Hey! Would you like to see a BRAND NEW RETARDED ANIMAL BABIES film? Well, tough muffins... this one's from 2006. BUT! I doubt you have seen ENGADGET ANIMAL BABIES; it was made for an Engadget reader meet-up back then. Only a few people got to see it projected on the wall of the hotel bar we all nerded around in that night. It would have been a Special Feature on a 2nd RAB DVD, but that project got temporarily (permanently) scrapped due to lack of funding and/or anyone particularly giving a crap! |

Here's a pretty funny MOTHER IN LOL GAG REEL from Episode 5: "Growing Pains." |
