NEW DRAWING CONTEST !!1!

What better way to breath some life into this dusty old blog than to start a new drawing contest! This month's theme is AUTUMN, simple as that. The rules are the same as always. Get drawing!

Is this thing on?

Wow, it's been over a year since I posted anything on rubberwine, and over half a year since anything was posted. I just spent some time reading some of the previous posts and reminisced about the good ol' rubberwine days. Those were good times! So I'm gonna try to resurrect them.

What's everyone been up to? The Sox are in the World Series! Got any good links to share? Here's one:

USPS ASSHOLE

i just got back from the main Newark DE post office. I went there to mail the jury duty form i got a week ago but says "reply in 3 days". I was feeling paranoid about getting arrested for jury truancy so that's why i went at 6:30pm instead of waiting until tomorrow. I was a few days late and said so when i got to the counter, asking what date the postmark would show. The asshole there said "do you think your creditors look at the date? tsk tsk". I was confused. creditors? no. "this is for jury duty" i said. "This guy is worried about the postmark and he's already days late!" said the fucker behind the counter. by this time i realized what was happening. I paid for my stamp and waited for the change. I gave him the evil eye. "why are you picking a fight with me?" i said. "I aint picking a fight with you". more evil eye.  "JESUS CHRIST!" "Have a nice day"

bacon is a vegetable

while eating perfectly crispy bacon yesterday, i had an epiphany:
salty and sweet is a good combination,
that's why chocolate covered pretzels are good.
what about chocolate covered BACON?? it's salty and crispy!
and i already eat chocolate for breakfast...

so i told my sister whose husband owned a chocolate store. no interest. FOOLS!

then i found a website by someone who already thought of CCB! amazing!

manly man

Nathan Vincent "creates 'masculine objects' using the 'feminine process' of crochet," like a lawn mower, a urinal, cigars, and boxing gloves.
