TheEvilDog:
Anyone notice that the second thing Dora said to Faye was "Why do you hate money?"
If I remember correctly, Faye started they tyrannosaur espresso machine as a way to get back into sculpting. It was Dora who pushed her to do a second piece for that gallery. The thing here though, is that its not "Why do you hate money?" its "I can't get my 10% from you any more". Faye has never seemed to me like one of those artists who would live off their work, the art is what they love to do.

But it sure is nice if you can both make a living off of it and love it. Dora made very good points in that initial encounter about Faye avoiding things.
Zebediah:
I think Dora's point is that if you can find a way to get paid for doing what you love, you have won the game of life. So why stop playing?
Not that Faye is quitting, she's just branching out. She's done dinosaurs, now she wants to try babboons or something.
By the way, did anyone else see Jeph's tweet about "Anomolocarids in popular culture" on Wikipedia? Nobody's actually edited that into the Anomolocaris article yet, but it could happen... :evil:
Carl-E:
To carry the Pokemon reference a little further, Dora has evolved from Friend/Boss to Agent...
It's a very different dynamic.
And I used to do what Sam just did. I had a high school teacher that I would regularly startle with a question before/after class. She nicknamed me "the silent creeper" (before that had other connotations). My parents got used to my sudden appearances and disappearances. And though not as large, I also have the Elliot ability to be undetectable in a group, sometimes to the extent that people thought I was at events where I wasn't... :roll:

[stupid internet ate my post]
Why hasn't anybody mentioned this as yet as a possible model for the next espresso machine? A Cappuccino Monkey! :psyduck: [I may have broken something earlier *twitch* ]
