How can you not do this?

"Delonte West was carrying three loaded guns on a three-wheeled motorcycle when he was pulled over and arrested on Thursday night. He had a loaded 9mm Beretta in his waistband, a Ruger .357 strapped to his leg and a loaded shotgun in a guitar case on his back. While visions of Terminator and Raising Arizona are impossible to ignore, West is said to suffer from bipolar disorder and left the Cavs for several weeks last season for treatment for depression."

Playing with Lebron James, being a millionaire, and believing that your are Mel Gibson starring in Mad Max: Beyond Thunderdome is probably about as awesome as you can feel. Until you see those flashing red and blue lights behind you. Bipolar disorder is not a joke. But I bet his reasoning for loading up like that and cruising around Maryland on his land jet-ski is wild. How hard must it have been to not have a gunfight? A shotgun in a guitar case? Amazing.

Chopsticks.



I couldn't have said it better myself.

I found this on the street today.



It's awful, yet somehow still beautiful.

Getting Back In It.

I don't blog anymore. Much of my creative spirit has been bled dry to the point where I just try to get through the day now. In an attempt to breathe some life back into myself, I'm starting a new feature entitled: I can't believe I had to send that in an e-mail. Here is installment one:

We presented the new penguin treatment this morning and here’s the deal, in the form of a numbered list:

1. We can use red and green hats, but not other colors. All bowties must be peppermint patties.
2. Child penguins can not be doing work (child penguin labor laws). So let’s use all adult penguins for pushing and pulling.
3. A child penguin should be sleeping on top of the box.
4. Put on hold, and probably kill any unique beginning. They're not interested in any new creative. We’ll just use the static sign.
5. They made us time out last year’s banner, which took 4-seconds, so they’re likely going to ask we keep this brief.
6. They’d like to make sure the penguins face front at some point, so we’re not just seeing side views.

Thank you.


I guess I'm going to try to focus more on personal work and less on real work, since the real work is so miserable at this point.
