I pay tribute to these friends by drawing tiny art cards (they're 2.5" x 3.5") as a trade for their services to the Tenebrous Empire. I was so tickled by the way this one came out that I'm sharing it with you, internet.
This is also a shameless ploy to get more people to send me more movies and cookies. So's you know--the going rate for Mr. Berger here was several hours' worth of garage-rock MP3s and a half-dozen Unmentionable DVDs.
ADDENDUM: This seemed like a fair enough place to post this, seeing as how we're on the topic of beautiful men. Someone please tell me that it's not true that John Philip Law has passed away. Not Diabolik--say it ain't so, internet!
ADDENDUM II: Sadly, this news is accurate. Mr. Law died on May 13th. Kim at Cinebeats posted this wonderful tribute to John Philip Law, one of the suavest gents to grace the screen with his presence. I couldn't do the topic any more justice than she's already done--it's a lovely tribute.

oh splendid! you are really making good use of the tiny size.
...what kind of cookies?
Thank you! My cards are significantly less cerebral than yours--apologies for that. However, they're guaranteed to have fully 80% more Eurotrash.
I think we established that the Whiskey Cupcake is the finest baked good on the planet, non?
The Whiskey Cupcake sounds entirely unbeatable. (It even has coffee in it! All four food groups!) Bring your sweet tooth.
That's a really beautiful picture. I love it. Now I've just got to send you something to get one. :-) I was really shocked and sad to hear about Diabolik himself. I can't believe John Phillip Law has passed away. He's one of my biggest idols. When I saw about his death on Cinebeats, I could hardly believe it.
Hey, I want naughty cookies and movies too! Where do I sign up?
Sadly, I'm not that talented in visual arts. I do write sonnets like a madman, though.
Great card, Kate! You rock.
Rogue Spy--thank you! Make me an offer I can't refuse and you'll get shortlisted for a card in Series 2 ;) The news about JPL is so sad indeed. I'm going to have to pour one out on the curb tonight for the actor who brought my favorite arch-criminal to life.
Vicar--thanks! You rock bountifully yourself. Sonnets are very creative! Start brushing up on your penmanship skills, write 'em on some tiny cards, and watch the baked goods and movies start pouring in. It's a flawless plan!
