So Saturday I went down to Milwaukee to meet up with some friends at the wonderful Lost World of Wonders comic book shop, then went to the new Famous Dave's that opened up in Milwaukee - MAN that place was packed; it's as if Milwaukee never had barbeque before. Then we all went to a couple bars - Country Clare (awesome place) and Bryant's (I...

I just ordered 200 mini-posters, 11"x17" in size, for convention promoting. As soon as I get them, if anybody here would like a free one I'll start collecting addresses and I'll send one to ya! Nothin' but love! skull

I'm still working on a T-shirt design; soon as that's done I'll let you guys know. smile

Ah, I actually sorted through all of the newspapers because I work as a photographer for a daily paper and i always take a copy of the papers home with me. For 6 months I picked them up without doing anything with them, so I had stacks of them everywhere! I need to save them because images that are prepared for a newsprint press are treatred differently them regular images- they are toned to a colder color temperature and they are very light, as the newsprint ink is dark. Thus, saving digital files isn't good enough- the paper itsself is the only accurate copy of an image.



nice pen and ink, by the way. keep up the good work!! smile

After I left Jason's place on Friday I went to Polly's to meet up with Shawn and his family for a Guinness and to wait for a phone call from either Lori or Heather. It was Heather's 21st birthday that day and both me and Lori (very grudgingly) agreed to take her out for the night on the town. But Heather wanted to eat at...

If I had a choice I'd probably only work at night and then just sleep during the day.

Don't break your eyes working too hard!

NOOOOOOO!!! So now i have to go see it all over again.. not that that sucks.. and Keanu is cool.. he gets a bad rap for those bill and ted moives and that damn chain reaction film. He's no Brad Pitt or DeNiro but hes good a actor in my book.

Lately my routine is going to coffee shops right after work and drawing for a good three hours, then coming home and unwinding. The coffee shop employees and regulars are starting to know my name.

My dayjob employer today had what we call an "award day", if our company meets our quarterly quota then instead of working we have a banquet and the supervisors give...

Man my company dont give a flipin crapola about us employees. I'm jealous man.. but that is a sweet deal..though i dont know if i could draw in a coffee shop. One of my peeves is people looking over my shoulder at my work or someone trying to talk to me while i'm into my work.. actually i think its just the whole being in public thing and me not like to be surrounded by to many. Keep up the good art.

Constantine is going to be so sweet! And so is St. Paty's day.. i cant wait for the green beer to just start flowing!

After my nine-fiver, I went to Starbucks and inked the next page of the comic for three hours...man was that exhausting for my eyes. I think my rods and cones are fried. Then I went to Little Ceasars and picked up a $5 large pizza (great fuckin' deal! I may have to go there more often), and rented the Japanese suspense movie The Eye. The...

I saw 'The Eye' at the Madison film fest a couple of years ago, and loved it. Tom Cruise is directing and producing an american remake of the film I guess, or so I've heard...

the eye was decent. I was told it was scarier than the ring, and I disagree. there were a few freaky parts, but a lot of it was just funny.
the guy in the elevator freaked me out...

My weekend I didn't do a whole helluva lot. My taxes were done on Friday - I'm getting a whopping $12 back from federal, and a little more back from the state. If you think about it, it's actually better to get as close to zero as you possible can on your taxes, and NOT to get either anything back or pay anything in. Why,...

I just sent a solicitation off to three distributors for my comic. It's happening! I can't wait to start selling it. I'm expecting a June release date of it now (not August like I predicted earlier); hopefully Uncle Sam will be nice to me with my taxes this year and I can use the money to go into convention appearances.

I found this on a...

Congrats bro!! I'm not a comic guy but I dig your stuff. I used to love comics like Sgt. Rock, GI Combat, etc. Thats about the extent of my comic exposure. Oh . . . I had a postmodern lit prof make us read the Batman stuff. And Maus.

Good ska? Stick with the original stuff from Jamaica (Toots and Maytalls; Early Marley; Desmond Decker; Skatalites), the second wave stuff from the UK (The Specials; Madness; English Beat; The Selecter), and punk influenced stuff (The Clash's "Bankrobber" comes to mind; Operation Ivy/Rancid). I also kinda like some of the newer stuff by the likes of Hepcat and theToasters. You'll be ranking and skanking in no time, rude boy!

Well, it's been days and I got no return phone call, no email; not a thing from this dream date I had on Saturday, whom was supposedly very, very into me.

I'll admit I'm confused. One day, she's there, as real as ever, as much into you as you are into her; you find out both of you have a lot in common; the physical...
