Two From Angie and Snooky:
A few weeks ago, I made a comment that if there was a television program made of my life, it would probably be called "Hipster Mom Stuck In The Suburbs And Constantly Waiting For Her Son's Bus". Truth is usually stranger then fiction. Anyway, dear Angie (and Snooky) sent me these two lovely cards. The first is a a very Steampunk Snooky helping me wait for my own bus (probably a steam powered one.). The card cheered me immensely needless to say.
Almost a week later, I received a 2nd card! This amazing "Joseph Cornell" card! He is one of my "Art Hero's", Angie and I thank you again for such awesome cards!

It's all making more sense now!
"Put a cog on Snooky and call him Steampunk!" Thanks for all the links!!!

That's a great little essay Louise. Thanks for sharing.

Jen, Snooky's not here alone. If it weren't for you and the Fonz, Snooky would have buried his bone years ago.

I know this conversation has kind of gone the way of the steam engine, but here is a blog post that was written by a friend of mine, that really, clearly, explains "Steampunk":

I thought it might interest some of you.

Btw, I happen to like gears and cogs. I think there great design elements, so I wasn't knocking them.
This did make me laugh though:

Could be; many Steampunk Artists "mod" all sorts of stuff beautifully, but I guess it's up to the artist. Do you have a link?
There's a bit of a joke that was going around (in the Steampunk community ):" Add some gears to it and call it Steampunk".
