Going halfsies once more

Alice in popular culture sighting no. 61: Another one found through Stumbleupon. Contrariwise is a site that showcases people's tattoos that feature quotes from "books, poetry, music, and other sources". Of course, one of the tattoos featured is the line that gave the site its name, "“Contrariwise,” continued Tweedledee, “if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn’t, it ain’t. That’s logic.”".

Alice in popular culture sighting no. 62: This one was another random encounter, but not using Stumble this time. Instead a Google search led me to the Cheshire Cat car club a "Radio Control Car Racing in Congleton, Cheshire".

Alice in popular culture sighting no. 62 ½: This one's not quite a sighting, but instead an acknowledgement of an influence. I recently got a chance to play Super Mario Galaxy. In a game set in an alternate reality, near the beginning of the game you find yourself waking up and having to chase white rabbits.

3000 words or more

Yesterday I bought Bryan Talbot's graphic novel, "Alice in Sunderland". I'm sure I'll have lots to talk about on here when I've read it.

Alice in popular culture sighting no. 17: A while ago, my friend Becka got the Cheshire cat from American McGee's Alice tattooed on her left arm.

Alice in popular culture sighting no. 18: I went to the Bierkeller last night and there was a girl there dressed as Alice. I think there was another girl dressed as the Queen of hearts, but I wasn't sure and I didn't get a picture of her.
