Riff Trax and Quality Me Time

Being the big Mystery Science Theater 3000 fan that I am, I decided to buy the tickets to the broadcasted live performance they are doing. So Yesterday I bought tickets set for 8:00 pm around 6:00. I obviously had some time before the performance so I did some wandering around in the shops and what not on Market St. in crowded San Francisco. I decided to Treat myself to a video game. Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare , not remembering the fuck all attitude video games take to sequels because I wanted the more recent Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2. So I went to the Movie in a timely fashion only to have it conk out 30 minutes into it. No one from the theater came in to tell us what went wrong, though we knew they knew there was a problem because the projectionist covered the lens blocking the digital cable prompt.

So we sat there (pictured above) for about 15 minutes. before someone came in to tell us it was a snow day and we could all go home. I got my rainy day ticket, no convenience charge, and threw away the bulbils receipt to the video game because hay what can go wrong with a video game? Its video! I go home put in the video disk but no video install happened. I call up the store to ask them what to do and they tell me I have seven days to return or exchange the item.. as long as I had the reseat that I left on the top floor of a mall movie theater trash can.

So, I ran from Pine and Leavenworth all the way to Powel and Market, up 4 flights and across the mall, and start digging amounts the torn up angry tickets of the Riff Trax audience. Go to the store (that luckily close at 10 because I'm leaving the country tomorrow) Exchanged it for the game I wanted in the first place.

What did you do yesterday?

Twilight, the movie based off the ELO song, not the Zone

I really didn't set this blog up for movie reviews, more as a place to show off my sketch book. But I just saw Twilight, and I honestly tried to give it a chance because its just as valid as Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and Star Trek in terms of "Why is this stupid thing so popular." But man alive! It's like a thirteen year old girls understanding of what having a boyfriend is: Couple of minutes of light petting followed by six hours of just staring longingly at each other. Then a quick lets meet the folks. Followed by ONE discussion about there interest: they like Clair De Lu, which is like saying: "You like the Rolling Stones?! I love the Rolling stones!!! were such beautiful and unique people with so much in common." Then BAM! Now you have a sparkly, bland, eraser head to look at for the rest or your life, and your only three weeks in.

Anyway heres some naked lemming girls pushing each other off a cliff, and a dog.

The Chimp and the Whale

I haven't posted in a while so here we go.. I hope this doesn't become a trend. Found out my Great Aunt Margaret died today, thats sad for me. I remember her drawing me when I was a kid and being amazed of what she came up with, that moment probable had a huge impact on my life. But I can't pin point which part.

Frank Harmon: Feminist

This is the ruff sketch of a painting I'm doing for the new project. I'v quasi abandoned the comic book thing because I don't think I'll get it done on time. I have instead decided to work on a bunch of paintings that iv been tossing around in my sketch book and creat a book out of that, I will include the short comics I have made in that book that I have dubbed: "Extravaganza Monster A-Go-Go!". It will contain various paintings I have done in the past, hopefully a bunch of new paintings and a couple of comics. In living color too.

How I Spent My Thanksgiving.

I flew over to Houston to visit my mom and dad for Thanksgiving. There I was able to see my two welsh corgis (thats right, like what the Queen of England has), and draw them. For what ever reason they both like licking one of the metal coffee table legs. Always the same leg, always the same place. Its weird, they'll lay there for hours licking away, I have no clue why.
