Hmm...I find them way too complicated and time consuming. They kinda look scary/depressing to me too.
I like simplicity. I would rather color the first puppy than the second. But it's interesting that some people prefer the second one. Different strokes!

Yeah...to me those fish are depressing and scary. They're not even smiling. They remind me of Ed Hardy designs. I personally don't like them but my friend loved the Hardy designs a few years ago. Different strokes though. I appreciate that everyone has different tastes, makes life interesting!
I think for me it just has a lot to do with equating coloring with fun and happiness and maybe childhood. I'm used to cartoons and animals smiling. That's really what makes me happy when I color, seeing cute pages. I guess I'm just into juvenile things.
There are a few adult coloring pages I've seen that I have liked though...

I keep seeing the phrase "adult coloring book" and I keep being glad some of my coworkers are not reading this thread. They would have a field day with that.
In local news, the iggle has landed! My father is in town until Saturday.

Does that mean less time on here and more time with family?

Carman - The Courtroom
If tonight you stood in Heaven's court to seek eternal favor
Would you face Jesus Christ as a Judge
Or would you face Him as your Saviour?
There are many who don't quite know for sure
What that verdict would be, if ever
So let's imagine for a moment
You are standing dead center
In the Courtroom of Forever
Sitting before you is a structure, massive and intense
It's here your fate will be determined, before this Judge's bench
Then a voice booms, "This Court's now in session"
And your adrenaline starts to rush
Peering down with eyes that see through your soul
Is God the Father, your Judge
Then off to your left, across the room
Is the virtual silhouette of sin
Stepping out of the shadows of condemnation
Your worst nightmare walks in
On his face is the smirk of evil incarnate
His mind fixed on your destruction in Hell
You've just been introduced to you prosecuting attorney
None other than Satan himself
The Bible says he's the accuser of the brethren
So guess what he's gonna do
He's gonna accuse you of your sins
And he knows them all, both the old ones and the new
He's prepared his case for years, now the golden moment is his
So in arrogance he presents his case to the Judge
And it comes out sounding something like this
"God, you see this worthless piece of trash over here
This one is a sinner to the core
This one's commited adultery, cursed his neighbors, stolen money
Been into drugs, alchohol and even more
This hopeless wretch has even slandered friends
And by the guilty face, this whole courtroom can tell
That to a moral certainty and beyond any reasonable doubt
This one deserves eternal judgement in Hell"
The words of accusation still echo
Your every sin thrown up in your face
Then God opens the book where every deed is recorded
And reviews your records of disgrace
God says, "The Book says you did this, this
And this and everything you were accused of today
Now before I sentence you to Hell forever
Are there any last words you have to say?"
Now if it's true you're standing there in the Courtroom of Eternity
With God to your front and Satan-the-prosecuter to your left
There's one remaining eternal truth, one that's crucial to remember
One you should never, ever, ever forget
That on the other side of the Courtroom
I said, on the other side of the Courtroom
You ain't hearin' me tonight
I said, on the other side of the Courtroom
Is the one and only Son of God, revealed in time and space
And he's your defense attorney who has never lost a case
It's not Buddha, Muhammad or Krishna
Or any others who succumb to death
Ladies and gentlemen, on the other side of the Courtroom
Is Jesus Christ of Nazereth
Then Jesus jumps up, says
"Wait a minute, Judge, now I've got somethin' to say
May I remind you that on a cross 2000 years ago
I washed his sins away
I was crucified, I died, they put me in a tomb
But long about the midnight hour, the power of God hit me
And I walked out of that grave, alive
And well with resurrection power"
Then the Devil says, "It's in the book
It's written in the book, check the book"
God said,"Okay"
Then He takes the book out, lays it open and says
"Now we'll see what this book has to say"
He turns to the first page, the second page, the third
By the fourth, the Devil seemed shook
God closes it, says
"The blood of Jesus must've worked
'Cause there's absolutely nothing in this book"
The devil says, "Now what a minute, check that book again
All his sins are written down, they're all right there"
God says, "Devil, maybe you're mistaken all together
Maybe it's this other book down here"
Devil cries, "No, not that book, not that one"
God said, "Devil, why you so uptight?"
God sets the book down, the dust flies
And on the cover it says, "The Lamb's Book of Life"
Is your name in that book?
Is your name in that book?
Is your name in that book for sure?
If you've been forgiven and your name is written
Then raise your hands, praise the Lord
Yes, my name's in that book
My name is in that book
My name is in that book tonight
I've been forgiven and I know my name is written
In the Lamb's Book of Life
My name is written in the Lamb's Book of Life

Today I made a big pot of deer chili, 23 loaves of sourdough bread, took the dog to the vet for a routine shot, scrambled eggs for breakfast, showed my father how I make soundtracks... and I'm in the middle of folding something like four loads of clothes. (They piled up on me when I wasn't looking.)
Why do all the recruiters start e-mailing me after I get a job? Not that they are e-mailing about jobs I'd really be interested in, but still. And new job is currently making me feel fairly stupid and wondering how I ever convinced anyone I'd be good at this (which really just means that my perfectionism can't cope with making mistakes and having to learn as I go along).
