I wish I had a link for yah.

I was playing with some freehand drawing for my 3mr.
It's fun but they take longer than 3 minutes.

New MuM album is out. I just ordered it and I can't wait! Their site seems to be down. But these guys have it all figured out.


Where will all my stuff go?

Ok, I'm a fan. Is that so bad? Is it bad that I've clocked hundreds of hours watching episodes? For the majority of my life? I say no it isn't. Maybe those conventions are a little sad and I'm not a huge supporter of dressing up like some alien culture and learning their whole imaginary language. But gosh darn it! I am a Star Trek fan. It feels good to say that and I feel a little proud. Especially after the last few episodes of this seasons Enterprise. It's really good stuff. They've manage to up the action and create an intricate plot and man is it good. Maybe the acting is a little over the top sometimes. But gosh darn it! The last 5 episodes of Enterprise have been amazingly cool. They've managed to almost completely destroy the ship. Killed over 50 of it's crew along with one of a second tier character. Every episode there is a struggle physical and mental. Anyway, if you get a chance this summer. Skip the episode where the captain gets turned into some creature. Hang in there though and please give it a chance. It's not you're grandma's Star Trek. (insert cheesy where no man has gone before line here)

I'm getting tired of good shows being canceled.
It sucks. Especially when the last episode is really good.
Just wanted to say that.

Being mistaken for one of the bank teller security guards, Jim was let in without even so much as a glance from anyone. Except Randy. Randy knew and he was just waiting for that perfect moment. Jim walked to the back where the safe was. I’m not sure really, but I think it was in the back. I wasn’t there so I’m really just recreating the whole thing. But I’m pretty sure the majority of banks have safes in the back of the building. So let’s go with that.
Jim walked to the back of the building and no one watched. Except Randy. Randy watched.
It was 9:28 am. Jim knew he shouldn’t have stopped off for the doughnut. He also knew it would throw off his timing. But the “HOT NOW” sign was on and he also really knew that doughnuts are so good when they first come out of the oven. Is it his fault the route to the bank went right past the darn Doughnut Hut? Well, regardless he was there now and he was heading to the back of the building.
“May I help you” Randy said to the next person in line. Then he glanced back over his shoulder to watch Jim walk past the branch manager’s office. He turned back and leaned forward a little in his chair. “I can help the next person in line down here,” Randy spoke a little louder this time.
Jim looked down and noticed a flake of sugar from earlier. He brushed it off and hit his nametag sending it flying across the room and into a filing cabinet making a loud metal “clang!” “Oh Shhh” Jim said in that quite little inside your mouth voice. You know when you’re trying to talk to someone without moving your mouth. I guess it’s similar to the technique used by a ventriloquist. But I really don’t know.
“That’s ten, twenty, forty and one, two, three….” “Clang!”
Randy’s heart dropped down beneath the counter and he glanced back over to see what the noise was. He saw Jim walking over towards the branch manager’s office.
Jacob asked, “Hey buddy, can I have the rest of my money now?” He wasn’t usually in such a hurry. It’s just that he had left his dog in the car and he wanted to get back out there before his brain had melted out of one of his little fluffy ears.
“Oh sure, sorry about that.” Randy fumbled through the rest of the ones calling out the total as he went along. Adding it up for you on the spot so you didn’t have to worry about it later.
“Three, four, five and six.” Standard procedure for the bank. What wasn’t so standard, was a guy dressed up as a bank security guard crawling on the floor towards the branch manager’s office door.
“Thank you and you have a nice day sir.”
Randy twirled his sign to say teller closed and started to walk over to Jim.

Take a moment from your day and go watch the The Incredibles preview. It's longer lasting with even better flavor. It'll probably be the best super hero movie ever. EVER! While you're enjoying you're computer animation for the day, go read about the robot movie. It'll probably bring my shabby little robot empire crumbling down around me. In some way. Oh shut up. You Don't Know. I'm Leaving!

If you listen to music all day while you're working or surfing then Audioscrobbler is for you. It tracks the music you play and ranks it against what other people are playing. You can check and see who has similar music taste and what that person is listening to. It's ultra cool but still in the beta-testing phase. So it's on and off line often. Check me out. I swear that Backstreet Boys track is my niece’s. For real.

Wow, I just got flung out of that whirlwind we call the first quarter of the year and landed right on my nose. My nasal surgery was good. I'm going tomorrow and the doc will take out my nose splints. Hopefully he will say I'll be feeling better any day now. Cause right now I feel lowsey. I'll post a full detail of my surgery with pictures and time line for all those allergy suffering people out there.

Also my bestests friends at Startle Studios are making the long trek to California. Good luck buddies and take some pictures of the Cadillac Ranch

But first I have some work to do for my good friends at Highwire
