If you haven’t already seen the new Star Trek film I highly recommend it. For many years we have not had a new Star Trek film and finally, after a long and patient wait, we have, not only a fine film that earns the title of Roddenberry’s work, but one that is fully entertaining and wonderful in every way. I was very pleased and, I admit, completely overwhelmed with emotion at the traditional rebirth of the classic Trek characters as well as stunned at the special effects and brilliant story of the beginnings of the Enterprise crew.

Don’t worry…I am not going to include any spoilers into this brief review of the new Star Trek film. All l I have to say is…don’t miss this film in the theaters…even if you are not a big Trekker…just go out and see this movie. It is well worth your time and it will entertain you to the fullest.
Enjoy…and live long and prosper.

As you can see, Imp is on vacation this week riding rides at an amusement park. Though for artistic propriety I cannot convey Disney images in the comic…Imp is indeed in Disneyland as I was this past weekend. The Mr. and I took a little trip to the happiest place on earth and had a wonderful time…celebrating…well everything according to Disneyland’s theme. Birthdays, anniversaries, first visits to the park…are all celebrated in Disneyland this year.

I must say that Disneyland loses none of the magic and sparkle of fun and excitement after visiting it year after year as a child or as an adult. There is something for everyone of every age when going to see the Mouse. New and fantastical additions are being added to the park every year and there are some BIG plans for CA Adventure in the next few years. I am not going to give anything away in the blog. You will have to just go to the park and see it for yourself.

SO, if you haven’t had a chance to visit the park recently…I highly recommend a trip. Imp is already having the time of his life so…stay tuned this week (and maybe next week if I feel a surge of inspiration) for more impish fun in the happiest place on earth.

I’m in the process of designing new Imp shirts and I thought it would be fun to have a contest with Imp fans. This is your chance to be part of the creative process!

So, here is what you do: create an Imp shirt design that includes a description of the image and/or words in your design. You can use as many of the Imp characters as you like and be as descriptive as possible so I can understand your creative idea. If you like you can send me a sketch of your design.

How do you submit your design?
You submit your design by email (use the email button at the top of Imp’s home page or email me directly at: ewportfolio@yahoo.com). Put “Imp Contest” in the title of your email. Email me your design including a description of the image and any words that accompany your design. The design is completely up to you! It could be Imp chasing birds, Imp terrorizing Terran, Drew and Imp together, Imp playing video games….be as creative as you like!

When is the design due?
All t-shirt submissions are due June 30, 2009.

What do you WIN?
The winner will receive a free t-shirt that they helped create!

Once the winning design is picked, I will draw the image and have the design available on a t-shirt in the Imp store. The winner will have their very own t-shirt mailed to them that they helped create! So, have fun and email me those great t-shirt designs!
