That is one of the reasons why I started <a
href="http://braincellsoup.com">Braincell Soup</a> many years ago, I wanted to be able to share all the great art and images that I found.</p><p>Then as I settled into my role as a digital curator I realized that there was also a lot of really crazy stuff that made me laugh or made me shake my head and I wanted to be able to share that as well so I launched <a
href="http://www.rottengumdrops.com">Rotten Gumdrops</a> at the beginning of the year as my repository of weird, wacky and WTF.<span
id="more-95942"></span></p><p>During all this I also realized that I was coming across a different type of art form that didn&#8217;t necessarily suit Braincell Soup and definitely didn&#8217;t fit in with my other two sites. What I was finding was either just thoughts being posted as &#8220;web posters&#8221; or being mixed with images and shared with the web.</p><p>I have always been fascinated by the power that words can have, and even more so when mixed with images, so I decided to add this type of thing to my list of interests and create a home of their own. This home is called <a
href="http://www.milkshakememories.com">Milkshake Memories</a> and it is where you will find words and thoughts that I feel need to be shared.</p><p>The funny and touching to the thought provoking and sometimes political you will find them there. Hopefully you will enjoy what you find and make it a regular stopping point on your travels on the web.</p><p><br
