I am “very evil”

Posted in Memes, Wendy by Elliott Back on April 10th, 2007.

I feel like it might be a good idea to inform Wendy of the results of this rather silly quiz:


You Are 64% Evil


You are very evil. And you’re too evil to care.
Those who love you probably also fear you. A lot.

Nooo, it’s not true!! Muahahahaha…

That’s unfortunate–I think I’d make a better Green Goblin or Magneto. Something to improve in the future, I suppose!

Photos That Changed The World

Posted in Memes, Photo by Elliott Back on January 5th, 2007.

Le Violon d’Ingres is an early photograph by Man Ray with violin F-holes drawn on the back of a young woman, emphasizing the relationship between the curves of the violin and the human form:

If this display of art moved you, Neatorama has another 12 photographs that “changed the world”. Of course, I can think of a few they missed, such as the atomic bomb, kim phuc fleeing napalm, flag raising on Iwo Jima, and Marilyn Monroe. There are a few more good ones in this Time Life excerpt.
