A tribute to Rant: An Oral Biography of Buster Casey
I have been spending my summer creating quilled drawings. For those of you unfamiliar quilling is the Victorian craft of creating picture and decorations with thin strips of coiled paper. This summer I have been bringing this teqnuqie into the 21st century by starting my work in the computer; then I print, cut out, quill and photograph, finally I bring it back into the computer for some finishing touches.
I love Rant with all of my heart and have read it so many times I have lost count. There was so much inspiration I could have tapped into when creating this piece. I considered the tooth fairy and santa clause, that line of thinking lead me to make a totally different work. However I couldn’t pass up the chance to create a piece depicting the the moment of time travel.
I can’t figure out how to up load the poster to this post, so here is a link to my blog.

“...There are so many ways of being despicable it quite makes one's head spin. But the way to be really despicable is to be contemptuous of other people's pain. You ought to have some apprehension that the man you see before you was once even younger than you are now and arrived at his present wretchedness by imperceptible degrees.”
-James Baldwin
Thanks! I taught my self through a lot of trial and error. And of course Rant is really inspiring!

Tuffy the Dump Truck may rarely increase the risk of a heart attack or stroke. The risk may be greater if you have heart disease or increased risk for heart disease (for example, due to smoking, family history of heart disease, or conditions such as high blood pressure or diabetes), or with longer use. Tuffy should not be taken right before or after heart bypass surgery. Also, Tuffy may infrequently cause serious (rarely fatal) bleeding from the stomach or intestines. This effect can occur without warning symptoms at any time while taking Tuffy. Older adults may be at higher risk for this effect. (See also Precautions and Drug Interactions sections.) Stop taking Tuffy and get medical help right away if you notice any of the following rare but serious side effects: bloody or black/tarry stools, persistent stomach/abdominal pain, vomit that looks like coffee grounds, chest/jaw/left arm pain, shortness of breath, unusual sweating, weakness on one side of the body, sudden vision changes, slurred speech. Ask your doctor if Tuffy is right for you.
