What can you say in 16o characters? (spaces included) Go see Monkey Man.
Here is a peek inside my journal as well...if you look close you can see my whittling down to 160. And I tend to doodle as well, so I am sharing it with those that can actually draw over at Sunday Sketches.

I would like to peep at your journal, it must contain some fascinating stuff.
Smiling - I like this idea and have had a go*!*
The revolution will not be televised and either will my life. Eh?
Love the words, adore the sketch, my you are multi-talented ;)
Brian, I keep hitting the remote control but just can't get the journal to flip over to another page. Show us more, please.
Seriously, the image adds a nice touch, a little window into your creative process.
It's like a DVD extra: "Behind the scenes - The making of Brian's Sunday 160". Love it!
:)
feeling a little neglected?
Sorry typo.
Like the snatching-away-the-words device. A nice verbal glance. -J
this is so cool!
Your artistic skills rival your writing ones. I can't draw to save my life.
Oooh, telly. Love it. And your writing!

Look at me, indeed!
You have such a way with words!
just fantastic! hilarious in short. :)
we really sometimes treat human beings like that. thinking they can be turned on and off like televisions or computers.

Enjoyable... ; )
I like the 'personal touch' given to that communication :)
I wrote one too YAAAAYY!
Thanks to you!;)
Love the sneak peek into your private notes and thoughts. Love the piece today. Blessings.
I read this to hubby. Without TV we get even more jollies when we read things like this. Like your sense of timing, Brian. Just awesome.
Nice! I love that you showed us your journal. Happy Sunday! :)
Me LOOOOVE my DVR!! I like your sketch!! :)
That is a most provocative poem! Tell us what it means!
We interrupt this program....
Love this...and if I am not mistaken,is that Dagwood in the sketch?
I like the sketch with the post, nice visual.
Wonderful! Thanks for sharing the journal entry!
Nice post and nice sketch!
Love it, I was thinking this morning how our computers and chatting is surpassing family conversation.
mine is HERE
this was really cool brian - was also cool to let us have a look into your journal..
i tend to "draw" as well when i'm making business calls..so my pad at my work desk is always filled with trees and flowers...i think i can't make phonecalls without drawing...
Sometimes delete can be beneficial...Nice doodling. I tend to doodle all over my desk calendar when I have to sit in weekly "phone/conference" calls. It saves me from falling asleep. Do you just doodle or do you dabble in art as well?.....
I love it. How do you come up with these thoughts?
I like to doodle too. I find it relaxing. It's great to see yours.
I'd never change the channel on you, Brian!
a work with attitude...i like it
I truly feel like this is how some people treat us these days. Communication and conversation are lost arts.
A tantalising peek! Looks interesting!

Nuts in May
A journal! I bet that's filled with wonderful stuff. and doodles too.
Beware the test pattern though. They steal your soul.
LOL ..." those that can actually draw". I think you do a great job of that!!
Nice to see your sketchbook!
this is brilliant..I can imagine screaming these words out loud. thanx for sharing friend,
I've always enjoyed being concise...but it's hard to say what you want to say in 160. This made me giggle, great work, as always Brian! x
Very clever, Brian, and thanks for the link to Sunday Sketches!
Adding the image is like adding a thousand words to your limited 160 count. Not fair. ツ
looks like a robot on tv but who knows
ah, love that, funny, and true! so glad to see you at Sunday Sketches this week! enjoy the day!
Wow, look at all those comments. Nice to see you over at Sunday Sketches. Cool drawing.
Brian, I enjoy reading your 160 words or less, but I love the addition of the sketch, and you can sketch. Thanks for sharing with us this week.
Yay - another sketch! I love seeing the drawings that accompany your words :)
Ah, crafting and whittling words is such a challenge. I was never able to combine my word and doodle journals. Awesome that you are so able to freely express in both mediums.
Fun look at your journal. I carry a moleskin...you never know when the muse will strike. Great 160. I hit neither "OFF" nor "MUTE" on this read. Thanks for playing.
hmmm thought provoking ... so cool to see your sketch Brian :-) it's like going behind the scenes ... ;-)
I often wondered how you all managed to get things down to 160. Thanks for the peek inside:)
Thanks for letting us look into your journal!! I have often said to my husband "look at me"
Great sketch, Brian and excellent words. I couldn't have said it any better... (curtsy)
ain't that about the way of it... ;)
great 160!
Ah, but that's exactly how some treat the people in their lives.
Ah, but that's exactly how some treat the people in their lives.
'that can actually draw'...haha...really now, we don't believe that for a minute. Hope you're joining in CT soon!
good thoughts on communication...I feel I've been tivo-ed before! LOL! or maybe 'muted' hee.
Hi B-- So, what are you TiVo-ing? Is that even a verb? Anyways, cute ode to your show. But my favorite is your journal. A treasure for your boys to discover.
Very cool, I love your words and the sketch together! Thanks for sharing :) ~Lauren
And yet we really are merely actors playing out parts on one another's stages.
Very clever indeed. 160 eh?
Hm, could I do that . . . .
How true about our attention deficit world.
good 160 mate, bravo :)
thats really cool brian, i havent been online or posted anything in a while been busy with school and i had a very stress ful week i'm glad its almost over, but im back i havent posted anything yet but i got something really good for oneshot wednesday, i can't wait to post it i've been working on a shot fiction kind of thing :) and great sketch im not really good at sketching things but i'll something see how it goes.
Yankee DOODLE Dandy!
Nice journal entry...A.D.D. in action. Truely a breeding ground for creativity. YOu are not a sitcom...more like a silver screen motion picture.
I have a little doodle pad too! But the sneak peek at yours reminds me a little of the journal that Jim Carreys character Joel kept in the movie "Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind.
Just fabulous!!
Brilliant, Brian...as usual.
great sketch Brian!
Too clever Bri. I'd like to know when you have the time I'm still waiting for the revelation of a clone
Great sketch
Happy Sunday my friend
smiles from the moon
That made me smile. I hope more of your posts come with journal photos.. pretty please.
Have a great week, jj
Brilliant Brian...there's more to this than meets the eye. Now, where's my remote...?
I love seeing your process in the sketchbook... and the sketch is quite good! :-)
Hi! Brian...
Thanks, for sharing a glimpse into your journal and the words that Tom, and Claudia, used basically, summed up my feeling too!
Nice use of 160 words!
DeeDee ;-D
oh so cool that you have a journal!!! and you sketch in it!!! what fun....
I just can't stand that you can draw and write and are a great dad, and a wonderful husband, and so nice, too.
I just can't stand it.
And now, on top of all that,you just won the Mexican cocoa dusted truffle giveaway.
Does anything ever NOT go your way???
Love the peek. :-)
Clever Brian--160 leaves little room for description.
I love your doodle and the peak at your journal.
It would be nice to have a mute button, though, wouldn't it?
my mind immediately envisioned a child saying this to a parent and that leaves me with sadness. Nice 160.
I loved it.. Wonderful 60 Brian..
--Someone Is Special--
I love how you included your sketch in this post Brian, shows all of us how natural writer with many talents works.....:-) Hugs
I enjoyed taking a peak at your journal.;)) It is like seeing sketches of a great artist or a great writer's notes.;)) Very candid.;)
Have a great Monday dear Brian,
xo
Nice sketches. I love to journal. A nice way to allow ideas to flow.
Journal-to-post-readers-comments. The cycle is sure interesting. Not vicious but gracious! Corny lines from me :)
Joy always,
Susan
Uh oh, you've been tuned out!
I think this is a great doodle!!! It works well with your written piece! Nice work :0)
:) Nice Brian! I always wished I could draw...I cant get past my stick men LOL
To be ignored is sad. To be "turned off" is heart-breaking. A good reminder for me to be kind today to someone who needs it. ::giggling at doodle::
♥namaste♥
Wow, interesting sketch and idea indeed!!!
There must be millions of women out there, reading this post and nodding energetically.
Love the sneak peek at the journal.... I feel like this sometimes i have foot in mouth disease at times... except i wish i could mute myself...lol...
I have to tell you my T-vo.. (dvr )is a life saver.. i swear without it i would never see anything prime time....
powerful
that's so true, making someone feel like you are giving them your attention is a short commodity these days.
wow, you can draw too? :)
Very very clever 160, Brian. I like the sketch too - it reminded me of Barney Rubble...yeah, my mind is a strange place - lol!
Love that happy-faced person in the TV.
You described me to a "T"! As in "Tivo"! You are so multi-talented! Love the doodling!
Nice doodles, Brian! Your fans here will always "look at you!"
Wow wouldn't dare photograph my journal!
nice sketching :)
LOVE this!!! What a great idea and even more personal than just the normal wonderful words you share!!
oh I love your journal
I had been wondering before whether you created all your poetry & stories online or offline....so offline it is
LOVE your drawing or doodles as you aptly call it nicely paired, I include my art now and then in with the photography but it blends in
and no one really notices.
nice 160.
cheers,
joanny
I cannot draw a lick but truly appreciate those that doodle as well as you do Brian.
I can feel this one.
I love seeing doodles... there is an art to doodles.
Oh, I love seeing your little note book/sketch pad. I didn't realise you write these things down on paper first and love too that you are starting to draw. Well, Bria, we're here--and we're not turning you off! :)
