Was he auditioning for the role of Tarzan?
Note for the baffled: there was a famous sketch wth Peter Cook and Dudley
Moore where Dudley has one leg and auditions for the role of Tarzan. Peter
Cook tries gently to tell him he isn't suitable "Your right leg is perfect
for the part. I have nothing against your right leg. The trouble is neither

(And I telephoned the local water-management authority to complain about
their *defining* (yet) a "watershed" as the valley-shaped
water-catchment area! "We've got a dozen words for the lowland bit",
quoth I, "but English has only one (special) word for the ridge along
which the water run-off divides. Please don't muck it about! Remember
it by its metaphorical use, as in: 'Indo-Chinese relations have reached
a new watershed', for example".)
Silly berks...

I fink I meant to display a contemptuous attitude to the works of Lowry, as
I don't consider him much of an artist.
Much the same for the pretentious crap in Tate Modern and produced by
soi-disant impressionists. My idea of impressionism is that it evolved
because it was a handy excuse for blokes what couldn't paint being able to
call themselves artists. I know lots of people don't agree and call upon
the likes of Rolf Harris to disprove my theory, but he is talented and most
of the others ain't.
If I what primitivism, I can always look at the drawings and paintings of
Spine Milligna Exquire, much more interesting. But if *you* like Lowry,
fine, fine, fine, I got no problem wid dat!

My problem is with many of the modern, so-called, animators who use an
inverted image to show the character walking left or right and the
same sized image no matter how far away the character is supposed to
be, Most can't draw the proportions correctly putting eyes in the
middle of the forehead and ears near the top of the head. e.g "Angela
Anaconda", "South Park" and "Bromwell High". Most kids can draw better
than those "artists". Still I suppose they probably work for peanuts.
"South Park" is just crude.

We used to sing -
Any time, any place, anywhere,
There's a girl with a gynormous pair!
Both the right one, and the left one,
Give Martini!
(Dons thwapp-proof armour and personal force field . . . .)
And what about, "You're never alone with a Strand", one version filmed at
Frognal Rise Hampstead, and "Guiness Guiness gives you strength - gives you
strength - gives you strength . . "? Toucan play at that game!
And with beer in those days, you were lucky if there was any alcohol in it
at all!
And the very first ad. "Gibbs SR - Fresh as a mountain stream" with the tube
in a block of ice, and ATV's logo going "BONG - ^BONG^ - BONG", and
Associated Redifusion with a white ratchet-wheel logo - or was that
something to do with ZETA?
Then there's 'H' aerials and the smaller ITV Yagis, and converting a set to
ITV by adding a Turret Tuner and a whole extra I.F. Strip? What a palaver
just to watch Hughie Green doing everything 'most sincerely.' He was another
miserable sod in real life.
We got a new set for ITV. A Murphey one with a sort of rounded wooden case
and the controls under a flap at the top. Opening the flap turned it on. It
was pretty good until the contacts on the Turret Tuner started to corrode.
We had the wrong type. It had stud contacts and sprung loops and always gave
trouble. The other type had contact blades between pairs of sprung ones.
Much better.
In the end, we hit the top of the set so many times to get a picture that is
started to fall apart. Then the CRT went low-emission and my Cousin Ivor,
who was an engineer, cured it by 'boosting' it, meaning he switched the
mains voltage selector down from 240 to 210V! The set used to warm the room
a little after that and when you switched it on, you could see the
reflection of the bright light from the poor little valve/tube that had the
lowest resistance heater reflected from off of the wall!
It was common practice after buying a valve set in those days, to identify
this valve and buy a couple of spares, coz it was this one that always blew
first.
BBC was on around 41Mc/s (remember those) in those days. An astonishingly
low frequency by modern standards. GHz were unknown except in RADAR, which
was still mostly hush-hush those days. Innit?

comedy. I believe it's done in 3DStudio Max so it's gotta be deliberate.
A lot of Mel Brooks' old and crude humour is taken literally and criticised
rotten as if that's all it is when it's actually the humour in the irony
that he's using the stuff that's what's funny . . . . er . . . Innit?!
The rest? Agreed. Not only were the cartoons I grew up with more accurately
and better drawn, they seemed much more alive. They actually breathed -
usually in time with the music. Much of today's stuff is just wooden and
lifeless.
Even the oldest cartoons still surviving like Nellie (?) the Dinosuar and,
so help me, Little Nemo, have much more artistry and creativity in them than
most modern stuff.
And why on earth bipedal cartoon characters all walk along with their
fingers pointing backwards?

Did he tell people that he was ill first?
nemo
He's the bugger, probably literally, who said that the Royal Academy
Exhibition wasn't intended for little old ladies to show water colours
they'd done in their back gardens! Bloody snob!
<rant!>
Hundreds of TONS of perfectly good artworks a year end up in land-fill sites
in this bloody country because of snobbery like that and the 'closed shop'
operated by dealers etc., the only thing wrong with them being that they're
done by amateurs.
And why? - when all art schools do is give no instruction on technique
whatsoever and just tell their students to do their own thing?!
Why the f*** should aspiring artists have to pay exorbitant fees to be told
that? Answer: To get a meaningless degree so that whatever they paint and
whatever it looks like, they'll have a good chance of selling it because
they'll be considered qualified and "professional"!
Even the term, 'Pot Boiler' which turns up regularly on the numerous
unending parade of antiques programmes on the BBC is an insulting misnomer
for an amateur work of art. Pot boilers were *not* amateur works. They were
crude and appealing-to-the-masses works done by *professionals* when
business was slack to earn a bit of cash to keep the pot boiling on the
stove!
And one of my favourite art books - because it's an absolute scream! - is on
landscapes and has photographs of the actual scenes the artist painted next
to his works. In every single photograph, the grass and trees are green, and
in every painting the grass and trees are bright orange! With
"professionals" like that, who needs idiots?!!!!
Thank heavens I was given it and didn't have to buy the damned thing!

I rarely see anything funny in "South Park". Just rubs me the wrong
way as does "The Simpsons" which I see as glorifying mediocrity for
the most part,

DUH!
Strange lad
Hence my characterisation of him as the devil. I don't like Sewer in the
least, he is a misogynist, a snob and worst of the lot, an irritating
bastard. I generally ignore his opinions but if I do hear some tripe
dribbling out of his mouth, I look at what he is criticising as deserving of
some balanced view.
What a pratt he is.
What are you in terms of labels, Nemo - Realist, expressionist,
impressionist or summat else?

That's a point. How did he die? From nagging?

of the British Library under construction and for the scaffolding and cranes
I used a rigger brush with about three hairs in it and to rule out the lines
for the crane, I used an old scribe's trick of a bent needle in a holder to
impress the lines into the paper so the brush would follow them.
I also like to do *hugely* detailed drawings, spending weeks on them.
As I've mentioned before, I gave up on classes completely because I got fed
up to the back teeth with tutors who's own work was pretty abysmal telling
me I was using "far too much detail"! - simply because a) *they* couldn't
bloody do it, b) draughtsmanship is unfashionable, and c) if they expected
that sort of thing of their students they wouldn't get very many and that'd
be bad for business! Better to let them daub and tell them they're
brilliant!
I've posted it at the top of news:alt.binaries.clip-art
Sewer likes daubs - as long as the artist has a very large label reading
"PROFESSIONAL" stuck on his arse of course!
