Episode Fifty Six: We're Back and Crafty!

So after the bus broke down 30 miles outside of Denver and I sat tensely for fear that the irate passengers may disembowel our driver, well, I had a renewed passion for writing.  That was my trip to Oregon for my brother's graduation.  And if you're wondering, I did not fail to copy/paste the whole story.  Eventually I will write a post chronicling the horror that was my first bus trip across the United States.  Until then you have the information you need to know readers.

Instead of leading off with the soul searching I did over the past week- I will take the humorous route to revive the Curve Zone. 

When I heard about Newt Gingrinch getting "glittered" by a protester a couple of weeks ago I was inspired.  I try not to get into politics in the Curve Zone.  However, I couldn't help but think that Political Pundits would be made better through arts and crafts.  So I unveil to you, poor readers, Pundits and Crafts.


First- Bill O'Reilly.  O'Reilly's staring gaze is part of his drive as a media personality, so I thought "hmm, he needs Googly eyes!". 

Next, Hillary Clinton, whom I decided needed the fun and jazz of craft feathers and a gold star upon her cheek.  The brightly colored craft feathers add a touch of color and whimsy to the former first lady.

While we're on the topic of women in Politics, I decided to give Ann Coulter yarn hair.  Coulter's straight blond hair drains the color away from her face, it is uninspired.  Thanks to the rainbow of colors offered in craft yarn we were able to give Coulter a new, friendly look. 


The last craft project I decided to keep a reference pic on bottom.  Hate his movies or love them, you have to admit there is something familiar about the way Michael Moore looks.  Using felt swatches and craft hair we are able to construct, you guessed it, a Michael Moore Muppet.  If you don't know what a Muppet is, well, look up Kermit the frog on Wikipedia. 

I entreat you to try your own Pundits and Crafts :)
