Doug said...

Thanks Liz and Mike.

I intended for these things to be some type of flowering plants... but I'm not sure that comes across.

Socmo does it again. You never fail to keep the Socmo gags coming. I'll be haunted with the word "motorcycle" all week.

Heh! Thanks for explaining your intentions. I was thinking they were a standing pile of unfinished sockmonkeys--or rejects (with some bumps in odd places), but now I'm thinking their chocolate monkeys. We can kinda decide for ourselves, right? : ) I'm with Bron. You're doing a super job making Socmo the subject of all the IFs!

Doug said...

Thanks! I usually can't put a lot of time and effort into these things... due to limited time and the everpresent deadlilnes bearing down upon me. With a bit more thought, I probably could have made it more obvious that he was standing amongst plants. But hey, it's good enough for the 8 people who stop by here... right? (I hope)

Actually SocMo is a crutch of sorts. It helps me to focus and come up with an idea if I apply the IF word to something.

secret formula:
IF word + SocMo = idea

Now I'm thinking of chocolate-covered pretzel monkeys, thanks a lot, Paula! A nice thing to do to a gal at a quarter 'til Midnight!
This is charming, Doug. Kinda made me think of E.T. hiding in plain sight.
And now I want a SocMo alphabet.
My request is perfectly reasonable.
Honor it.

Doug said...

a SocMo font? it could happen....
Right after the SocMo cereal comes out.
Chocolate covered pretzel cereal flakes. yummmm

Absolutely adorable.

Amy C. Moreno said...

This is such fun. Who can resist monkeys anyway?

Larry Lee said...

Yeah...I don't think the plant idea comes through (and I understand too well the deadline thing). Perhaps if the background 'plants' were in an obvious flower pot.
Really like your sense of humor. The long distance diapers had me laughing out loud.
Viva la SocMo!

Awesome idea! SocMo does make me smile. I like the idea of a SocMo font too!
