Some people wear their sneakers in bed and that's totally ok! Who are we to judge!! Sometimes the same people like radishes! Really really like radishes and that's ok too!! Whatever floats your boat! I do wonder where all these sneakers are coming from lately though... Could they be the new heels?? Nooooo ... Just a phase, I hope!! But it looks like more sneakers might be coming this way before the designer heels come back... Who are we to judge?!
Finally a few hours to doodle!! Here's the night's spontaneous doodle for your viewing pleasures! It had been so long since I had the time to doodle! I was about to call it quits for the day, make it back early and catch up on some serious sleeping action but then out of nowhere I decided to stick around, get the paint and the markers out and start sketching! Had no idea what I was going to sketch until she appeared... First draft! And out of nowhere this one came out and got all finished up in one go! Yellow sneakers are pretty cool actually! No 5 inch heals today, sorry... Just yellow sneakers! Oh! And only the most practical way to eat your noodles ever while listening to some sweet tunes with friends!
Hope you like!!
In other not so related yet pretty cool news...
... I just finally got my very own copy of this wonderful "Color Tattoo Art" book and am very impressed to say the least! A very big proportion of the book is full of amazing work from some awesome artists! Even if a bunch of people who I thought had to be in this mega colour book weren't, I did discover a bunch of new ones! If you're still into that tattoo thing and happen to like the colourful stuff... Get this heavy chunk of mega bookness, you'll like it!
Yes it's true! This here fine Plog has been a mysterious source of "anti-information" lately! Even though "disinformation" aka "Counter intelligence" is the basis of my super spy work and like an innate reflex for me*! Yep... mhm! I do apologize for this unfortunate situation and would like to assure you all that it's not all for nothing and that as soon as I can, I will gladly resume "normal real postings"! Big important things have been in the process of happening in my super spy career since I got back to the HK in April, mysterious happenings that prevent me from being to open! so bear with me here for a while longer and as soon as I can I'll be back behind the Plog desk like never before! True that!
*Here's a quick example of skillful and perfectly mastered disinformation for you so you can see what I mean. In this reenactment, Bill will be the super spy performing the counter intelligence and John a foreign agent in search of vital information:
John: Robert has a black cat and it likes to play! Bill: Shrimp mittens, sad cowboy, Red rover, ear of a pigeon in the summer wind.
John:What? That makes no sense whatsoever! Did you hear what I just said about the cat? Bill: Shrimp mittens, sad cowboy, Red rover, ear of a pigeon in the summer wind.
John: Are you just randomly saying things that make no sense? Why are you saying these things? Why are you doing this? Bill: Shrimp mittens, sad cowboy, Red rover, ear of a pigeon in the summer wind.
John: Are you stupid? Bill: Shrimp mittens, sad cowboy, Red rover, ear of a pigeon in the summer wind.
John: Ok I get it... You're just suddenly retarded! I have no idea what else to tell you, I don't even know why I hang out with you. Bill: Shrimp mittens, sad cowboy, Red rover, ear of a pigeon in the summer wind.
John: Ar-tard!
-And there you have it! A brilliant textbook example of skillful and well applied disinformation! I could get in trouble for giving away official agency techniques so I'll stop with this example! But beware, out there, you could be the victim of an enemy agent at anytime, performing these very mysterious and confusing disinformation techniques without you even ever knowing about it!
Quick news and doodle update for all you image depraved Plog followers out there!! The world is still in motion, never tiring to turn around and bring new possibilities, new ideas and more new good times! My super secret spy work is still keeping me busy most of the time but bear with me while I promise to make it all up to you with an avalanche of awesomeness as soon as I get some extra time!! Until then, if you live in Japan and/or have access to such quality publications as TATTOO BURST, keep an eye open for what I can only imagine to be a sweet interview of moi coming in the next issue, I believe (with pro. photographer shots and all ... Nothing's too good, that's right!))... I'm looking forward to have the said zine in my hands to stare endlessly at the characters wondering what they all say!!

Check this book out!!!

The sad reality of the violent and murderous repression of people by their own governments has never been so relevant!
Tomorrow in Hong Kong, the only place in China where you don't get arrested for remembering, we remember how despicable this government has been and those it remorselessly took with it 22 years ago in Tiananmen square!
If you're in Hong Kong tomorrow night, make it to Victoria park and be counted, same as last year and all the years before! Remind them this will not just go away! Remind them we hold them responsible!
For a people to be able to turn the page on such a dark and disgraceful moment in their history, the responsible parties must be held accountable. One day inevitably they will, for no one can escape the truth!
All is good in the magical land of Hong Kong! My bestest friends are in town aaaaall the way from the Denmarkia and we be chilling it, Hong Kong style like it's 2009!! Lots of walking and lots of pictures and lots of coffee!
If I were camping right now I'd be a pretty happy camper! But apart from that... Sorry to say I don't have much else to declare! I'll take a few seconds to make a special post tonight or tomorrow! Until then... Lines of Doom for you!
