Ambigrams and Twisted Necks

Where I put my ambigrams, and people strain their necks to read them upside down

30 days of TAH: Day 2 Sorry this one is late, life got in the way. I will be working hard to catch up. I love the music so much, it’s so unfair to choose a favourite song. But it would have to be a tie between “on with the show” (can’t remember where it was from, but if know they made a separate podcast segment for it) and “written in the stars” as sung by Cactoid Jim and The Red Plains Rider in the musical episode “the piano has been thinking”. That musical episode is my all-time favourite episode, mostly because I am a huge sucker for musicals. My favourite musical guest is an easier question; Paul and Storm, because without them, I would never have heard of this. But this ambigram is for Andy Paley, who truly brings TAH to life. I greatly admire his work, and I hope he sees this small tribute I made for him

30 Days of TAH: Day 1 So I saw this as a result of a tweet, and decided I'd give it a go, but with my own little twist; I will try and design a new, relevant ambigram to match. So let's start this. Q. How did you first learn about the Thrilling Adventure Hour?/ A. I first learned of it through a podcast done by Paul and Storm. I was quite a fangirl (and still am) of the pair, and was going through all of their podcasts in order. In one, they mentioned being part of some weird podcast/radio/stage show thing, and me, being the obsessive fan girl I was, I looked at the wiki page, and figured out which episodes Paul and Storm were in. The first episode I listened to was episode 84: Nativity Ploy. A segment of Down in Moonshine Holler. After going through many episode with Paul and Storm, I decided, I REALLY liked this thing, and thus began a process of listening to them all in order. Since then, I have listened to every episode several times over, done some fanart (I can't remember where I posted it, but it is definitely on my twitter, which is the same as my Tumblr name. So, for my first ambigram, I have done Gummy/Lublin, in honour of Hal Lublin, who played gummy, and quite possibly got me hooked on this series (it's the hobo way ;P)

Thanks so much to slodwick for the logo! 

This post contains *new* and updated information from yesterday’s TAH Extravaganza post! (Plus all of the same information as well.  But this time we have a logo.)

Starting Monday, September 1st, we’ll be engaging in 30 Days of Thrilling Adventure Hour Extravaganza!

What does this mean?

Every day in the month of September, we’ll post a new question here on FYTAH for you to answer and post on your own blog.  The questions range from some basic “favorite character / episode / quote” type questions to talking about your own thoughts and experiences with Thrilling Adventure Hour.  When you make your post with your response, be SURE to tag your response with “30 Days of TAH”.  Tagging it “Thrilling Adventure Hour” and/or “The Thrilling Adventure Hour” wouldn’t hurt, either. :)

Each post will be made at 10AM Eastern (US) time, once in the morning and reblogged again at 10PM Eastern at night. There is also now a link to the Master Questions List on the sidebar of the front page which will be updated as soon as we can get to it each day. If you fall behind, just check the master list and catch up when you can!

We will also be picking 2 - 5 of the previous day’s answers from the “30 Days of TAH” tag to reblog.  These reblogs will be tagged “30 Days of TAH responses”.

If you’re not on tumblr but have a blog on Livejournal, Wordpress or another blogging service, please feel free to participate as well! Just be sure to use the #30 Days of TAH tag so that folks can find it easily.  Let us know you’re participating on your non-tumblr blog via twitter (info below the cut) and we may link to your blog as a daily response a time or two!

And then there’s this…

Although talking about TAH is fun just for its own sake, we decided to make this a little more fun by raffling off a couple of prizes for participation.  

We’re still working on the specifics, but there will most likely be three winners. One prize will be a TAH Original Graphic Novel signed by as many of the cast + guests + the Bens that we can have sign it (in October at New York Comic Con; we think we should be able to get most of them).  We may also do a signed poster, or give the winner a choice from the things that we pick up at New York Comic Con.

The last thing we want to make absolutely clear — the prizes are being provided by the moderators of FYTAH and this entire thing is in no way affiliated with Acker & Blacker or WorkJuice.  It’s completely fan-run, so please don’t send them questions about the extravaganza or the prizes.  Please send any questions or comments to us here at FYTAH.  

Some specifics of how the contest portion will be run and contact info under the cut!

Commissions are Open! :D

Hey everybody, so I found out that I have a chance to get my first aid certificate for about $90 (rather than the normal $175). I have been planning to get it for a while (especially for Girl Guides, and to a lesser extent, big events), but work has been slow, so I thought I would open commissions! I have three things I’m going to do. 1. Star Trek Tribbles
I’m sure at least some of you have seen…

A Brief Update on Wisdom Teeth

Yeah, I know it’s been a while since I last posted, but as you probably know my depression makes it very hard for me to be motivated. But I figured I should post something now, before Friday. On Friday, I will be getting my wisdom teeth removed. To me, it’s a good thing, and a bad thing. A good thing because it means after they are removed, I won’t have as much pain caused by my teeth. But the…

A perfect afternoon

Having fought depression for a while now, it’s so rare for me to just be happy for no major reason. But something about today is different. For several hours now, I’ve been quite content doing nothing in particular, and it really love the feeling. It probably started yesterday, when dad suddenly decided he wanted to watch some episodes of Doctor Who with the daleks in it. So I went into my room…

Flowers in her hair

Many people have described me as being a bit like a hippy; I wear long skirts, have long hair, I’m a vegetarian, and I care very much for the environment. But I never wear flowers in my hair. I never pick flowers. I don’t mind receiving flowers, but I can’t pick them myself. I know why. When I was little, maybe 7 years old, there was a place about 5 houses down the road, and out the front of it,…

Apologies and Musings on Accents

Welp, it’s been a while since I posted last, things have been kinda crazy, and my motivation decided now was a fantastic time to go on a Caribbean cruise without me. (My motivation is kinda mean like that, it keeps sending me pics from the beach) I was actually planning to write a post about how mean my motivation can be, but it took the hint and gave me a better idea. As I’m sure you have…

My Guiding Life

Just recently, I have begun the process needed to become a fully trained girl guide leader. It is something I have wanted for a while now, having basically been a leader (although technically I am currently a unit helper) to complete the training and make it official. So I thought today, I would talk about guiding, and how important it is to me.
I first began guiding in about 2006, when my little…
