Right Reading
Hugh Hewitt has written a must-read book If It's Not Close, They Can't Cheat: Crushing the Democrats in Every Election and Why Your Life Depends on It. As I've said before, this is not a political blog. But this book is worth reading and may help focus issues for those who still wonder about which lever to pull next November.
The public response has been great - Hewitt is currently at 35 on the NYT bestseller list and at 86 on the Amazon sales rakings. He spent last evening signing books at a Borders store - began at 7:30 and finally wrapped it up after 1:30. Despite cramped signing fingers, he posted his description of this memorable encounter.
There were some very inspiring stories, including many of parents, loved ones, and friends of military serving in Iraq or Afghanistan or recently returned from there. One couple, Rod and Cindy, brought along a picture of their three sons, two of whom are Marines currently deployed around Fallujah and the third of whom is a sailor on the U.S.S. Stenis. The three young men left college and enlisted after 9/11. It is very humbling to sign books for such great young Americans --and there are thousands of them-- and I think they and their families represent the core of this country. I was honored to meet every single person in the line, and especially honored to meet the servicemen and women and their family members who came by.

So... So the 1st point to do is - learn to observe the celebrities. Look at films, newsreels, and music present video clips. Don't forget that you can't develop a excellent caricature by hunting at a single static image of a individual. You require to see the movements, the gestures, the expressions, and the various views of the faces that you intend to caricature.
