Venus Flytrap or Spirograph?

Any one remember the Spriograph? I know I'm dating myself but I can't help but feel nostalgic when I look at this meeting scribble. But wait! For you you botonists out there, doesn't this thing look like a Venus Flytrap?



brandon pass seems to think so. Here is waht he had to say about this scribble:
"it started out as a sketch to make a quick point about circulating thru a space...the red box with the red swirl in it.....i couldn't deal with the hideous scratch so it became the site for whatever this thing is.....have to view large if you care to see any detail. nothing great, just the ordinary detail that is sketching/doodling"
I guess you could also say the note about mens underwear could be correlated to a fly trap. We may never know.

The Wiki Ten Step Program

Are you a closet wiki editor? Do you secretly go out and mess with people's wikis just for kicks? Rob Enslin's ten steps to proper wiki tactics advisory meeting scribble will keep you from falling off the wagon.



See if you can find the Earth and the "trusty" guy. Where can I get some training on how to take meeting notes like this?

Girl Beats Boy With Big Lollipop Up the Stairs

xmoonbunnyx is faster than both of the boys. In this doodle, the stairs are the central theme, combining the finality of the "worst thing" at the top and a sparkling heart at the bottom. Which would you choose?



Here is what she says about her meeting scribble:
"People tell me I doodle a lot in class & in meetings. They would be right. This is from my final phone conference meeting with the New York Times (on copyediting)"
 I think she secretly wants to beat her boss at something. Who can guess at what?

Strumming a 6-String and Seismographs

This doodle combines random geometry, what looks like seismograph traces, and party planning, all in a seeming tribute to Bryan Adams. detritus is definitely a unique person.



Think you are more unique and random than detritus? Let us know with your doodles.

Randomness Meets Google Alerts

Wow. Now this scribble is well sketched but what the huh? Cats, rabbits, airplanes, popcorn, cars, cologne, and scissors, and G-Man. Does this seem sane?




What kind of meeting was this? This is what the folks over at Sugar Frosted Goodness have to say:
"This is the type of drawing I always did as a kid. I was stuck in another boring meeting so I cranked this sucker out. I found a cool thing which I'm sure most people know about already. It's called google alert. Just type that in and you can get an e-mail sent to you when some on the web posts something about you. Check it out if you haven't already."
The only thing missing from this boring meeting scribble is a frog. Can we get that added?

What it Would Be Like to Have Total Control

This doodle just goes to show how we can get distracted in a meeting and start sizing up our fellow meeting mates. While not exactly a scribble due to boredom, it is nevertheless a mental tangent stirring internal wont for total control:



Chuck Rose over at Struggling to Paint says this about his doodle:
"This is a sketch of the guy who does a lot of the video on our site. He's really much nicer than I make him out to be in this sketch. I started thinking about what it would be like to have total control of part of the website, and he was sitting across the table from me, and one thing lead to another, and well, there you go.... UberLord of Video."
The video dude sketch looks like one of my uber mean grade school teachers. How old is that guy and was he ever a teacher?
