For my second inspire post this week I chose Wafflestomper’s (great name) post on the Downton Abbey/Wire mashup- Downton Shabby. It was totally hilarious and as I watch both shows, I understood it. The juxtaposition of high class British society with the Wire’s broken down Baltimore was too perfect. This …
I had fun with this chipmunk style assignment. I chose a scene from episode 8 where the techie guy is joking around with his computer abilities. I thought it was one of the lighter moments in the season so I downloaded the video, cut it down to the scene …

I was really inspired to do today’s daily create after reading Maggie’s great writing piece on it. She always has such great work and this is my second time nominating her to the Inspire page. Great job as always Maggie!…
I love when voices are heard before anything plays and I have to say, this was definitely a scary first few seconds. The one girl in the middle turning and pointing her finger at each child in turn while saying in a mechanical voice that someone will chop them up …
