A co-worker pointed this out yesterday. I’m not sure if they’ve exposed the purpose of this yet. It does remind me of many of my illustrations, paintings, sketches, etc. of the past years. I smell lawsuit? Ok, not really. Pretty cool to see them in the headlines though. I think I might have to snag a mask before the next job interview.
The new melvins album drops on tuesday. I believe we’ll be in attendence at the Seattle show. Shall be a good time. So the long weekend begins and I’m up at the usual time, so continues my battle with the calendar begins. Wow, my allergies are driving me insane this morning. Where is the claritan when you need it? Guess I’ll have to make a run to store here shortly, hopefully I won’t run off the road in mid-sneeze.
I’ve started to add color to the latest illustration (featured 2 of the previous 3 entries, see below.). I’ll have more images posted here shortly, unless frustration forces me to burn the results.

Only eight more hours of day job to log for the rest of the week and it shall be vacation time. I’m looking forward to it. Which should come as no surprise as most people enjoy vacations, unless they’re glue sniffing weirdos. The day was a fairly standard work day. When we got home, ike just had busted out of his crate and was ready to take the apartment by storm. Luckily I was there to restore order to the masses by taking him outside and making sure that he didn’t have any ammo left to pee on such things like my full collection of Seinfeld DVDs, which has happened before.
The images of the very large noggin of Eddie Murphy is brought to you courtesy of FLICKR and FFFFOUND.com. I recently found FFFFOUND and have been IIIIMPRESSED. (That was me being funny, get it?).

I think I’ve stopped and started this entry about twenty times now. I’m not sure where to start, NAFTA, our crap economy or maybe I’ll just talk about myself. Yep…that is what I’ll do, its all about me. So, as you can tell I’ve made some progresso on the sketch. I believe I’m going to hunt down my colored pencils and go with it.

9.51 on a wednesday and I’m taking a break from listening to the load of Carlin that they’re playing on XM radio. It has made the night go by really fast, which maybe I should have tried a work today. I’ve started a sketch and have ideas for some more projects on the horizon.
I picked up the new Juxtapoz today at lunch which made the train ride enjoyable and I’m almost finished with the book on Sonic Youth. Next up is a book about the different classes of nerds. I think it should be interesting. My wife thinks that I bought the book because of the cover, shhhh…don’t tell her that it was part of the reason, but really it speaks to my obsession with the Revenge of the Nerds series of great cinema.
On that note, I’m out. Until next time….COURAGE.
I’m working on getting my shit together, more to come soon. Until then, COURAGE.
I’m currently reading a book on SONIC YOUTH and during this process I’ve come to realize that I lent a few albums out to friends and then we moved and those albums decided to stay with their new owners. Now I have to go on another re-buying quest. I guess that is what happens.
It is fifteen minutes past the time that I’m usually asleep and I don’t think that I’ll probably be able to sleep too well tonight as I’m wound up from the day’s work and my mind is racing. I did come up with a few more ideas for illustrations, but I really need to work on the ones that were started a few weeks back. I’m falling into the habit of getting home from the day job and pretty much doing everything but work on my own shit. Well, I’m taking a stand, as of right now, I’m going to force myself to fill an artistic quota. Well I guess that I should really call it for the evening and try to get some sleep so I can fight off the day job wolves. Until the next time, courage.
We’re on our way out of the door to head to the great white north, sort of. Tis’ only Wyoming. I sort of feel like a changed delete after a week with glasses. Though, I’m probably not required to wear them as much as I do, I’m still sinking into the “nerd”ness of them and now feel even closer to my brothers of nerdism. Long live SKOLNICK. Until the next time, COURAGE.
There is always room for Jello. Ok, that was a lame thing to say, but hey, sounds like that should be a good show. We’re probably going to catch the Melvins whilst on holiday in Seattle next month. The melvins date here in d-town is going to have SECRET CHIEFS 3 on the date as well. Maybe I should hit that up as well? Can you say epic?
I came across this via, itsnicethat.com. Mike Sacks has a batch of photos of snapshots of the telly. I’ve tried this a few times and you can get some pretty interesting results. When things are pulled out of one context and displayed in another, oh the things that can happen.
