Right after I posted that last link I realized that I don’t really feel the desire to keep this linkblog going — at least not in the same way. But I’ve got an idea to continue RPM so I’m going to work on that (I hope). It’s a book — or maybe a blog — called 100RPM, or “The 100 Greatest Robots, Pirates and Monkeys That Ever Lived, Died, or Didn’t Live.” Or something like that. Quick bios on the best of the best. Here’s a sample I whipped up:

100RPM might be looking for a publisher. Here’s my Amazon author page and here are my two previous books:
• Milk Eggs Vodka: Grocery Lists Lost and Found
• 50 Sad Chairs

So see ya later keaggy.com/rpm. Posting here had slowed down so much that this page is basically shuttered anyway. It’s been a good nine years, though. Cheers.

“Just in case you’re not clear on the pecking order, here’s a handy chart that’s been doing the rounds today. It’s like paper rock scissors, except with more senseless violence.”

700 robots, 700 pirates, and some monkeys

There’s a group on Flickr called “700 Things” that aims to collect 700 drawings in each of 700 categories. They already have 700 Pirates and 700 Robots going. Maybe they’ll start a monkey group. This is a spin-off of the 700 Hobo Names thing by John Hodgman.

Anyway, here are a couple images that have some RPM overlap: First, #298. Nauticon the Pirate Robot and second, #158. Captain Andromeda and the Space Monkeys. Yippee!

Monkeys, Robots and Pirates oh my!

“When a client calls me and asks ‘Can you illustrate a Monkey, a Robot and a Pirate?’ you have to pinch yourself to make sure it’s not a dream.”

An RPM Valentine’s…

Even robots, pirates and monkeys need Valentine’s love too. See if you can spot the RPMs at The Stranger’s Extra Special Valentines page: “GIRL ROBOT!, You see the good in everyone! … My Monkey, Life with you couldn’t be better! … Casey M, My very own pirate. I love the way you kiss.”

A legitimate question

Metafilter: “Why does the combination of any two of {monkey, robot, pirate, ninja} always amuse a nerd?” Uh-oh.

Sweet, sweet uranium

“A venerable cabal bent on world-domination has sent one of their greatest champions to steal the reactor core… but so have their enemies. Bathed in atomic radiation, these champions — Monkey, Ninja, Pirate, Robot — fight to the death, in order to claim the sweet, sweet uranium for their people… and victory!”
