Lost… the title has nothing to do with the passengers…. it’s all about how the audience feels after almost every episode. I feel like Lost has entered Joss Whedon territory. The first few seasons were really great, but now I think I’m only watching it out of some twisted macabre fascination with finding out how the writers intend to explain the next set of insane “twists” to the plot. Sigh… I’m still gonna watch…. damn you Lost….. Damn you….

You should be watching Fringe…. it’s got all the crazy with none of the “Awe that’s a load of crap!”

And seriously… when they were in the boat and time jumped…. why was the boat still there?!

Gawdamnit…..

Sorry guys, but it seems like the streams that I recorded are not accessible from the ustream servers. I don’t know what happened, just that I can’t view them, download them or anything…. sorry…. Looks like I’m gonna have to go back to doing tutorials the old fashioned way, by recording them locally.

Maybe it’s the fact that I’m getting older, or maybe I’m just becoming more cynical… or perhaps the two are not mutually exclusive…. but I find myself feeling like it’s about time that the iGeneration takes over the reigns.

I don’t think that anyone can truly say that they haven’t felt like older people who hold a position of authority over them haven’t treated you with the proverbial kid gloves. And to clarify, this is not coming from the angst ridden mind of a teen, I’m almost thirty for god sakes! It really does feel like we are due our moment behind the wheel. Unfortunately it seems a lot harder to pry those gnarled old claws from the controls then it should. If you don’t want us to drive, then you shouldn’t have given us lessons.

Just a thought…

So I have been musing on the idea of devising some monstrous device for forcefully removing time from others so that I might use the hours for more constructive pursuits than might be otherwise endeavoured by the victim er ugh… Subject… Yes it seems that I have a not too uncommon condition, which I have decided to bestow with the name “creative diarrhoea.” True, the name itself is not very flattering nor does it seem like something you would like to be afflicted with. But as a descriptions of symptoms go, the term is… Adequate. Yes it seems like my brain seems to continuously spout out half baked (runny) ideas and intense desires to try my hand at new and more interesting projects. The only problem is that every time a new project begins it further compresses the time available for existing projects. Like I said I doubt that I am the only one with this problem but I have become increasingly aware of the condition. Thus my desire to construct the time sucker… They did it in the “princess bride” right? Anyway many of these projects that I have wanted to start seem to be ongoing projects like this very webcomic, or require me to invest vast amounts of time learning new skills like flash ActionScript programming. Sigh, maybe if someone could get cracking on that technology in the matrix where you could upload an entire encyclopedic knowledge of any given subject. Forget Kung Fu Neo, give me C++ and Adobe Flex lessons straight to the cerebral cortex please!
Any other sufferers out there? Maybe we can form a support group…

Well the answer to that question is apparently a really awesome looking we comic! I actually stumbled upon this site through a project wonderful ad on someone else’s site. Which on a completely separate note proves that the advertising system works… But I’m getting off the subject. Chicken Hare in it’s webcomic form is actually the third story the main characters have been featured in. The first two the author published and are available for sale on Amazon for just under ten bucks. The thing that really drew me to the site was how great the artwork is. Chris Grine has a wonderful cartoonish style slightly reminiscent of Jeff Smith’s Bone series, but is definitely his own. The character designs, posing and dialogue tone is just top notch, enough that I felt I should investigate the story further. Unfortunately this third story is just beginning so there isn’t all that much there for you to really get to know the characters, but that actually seems to give them just enough mystery to really make them all the more intriguing. Luckily the website has a written synopsis for both of the original books and sneak preview flash apps to whet your appetite. I highly recommend that you check out chickenhare.com and experience the comic yourself, I don’t think you will be disappointed.

I felt like drawing an Evil SS trooper for a warm up today…. thought I’d share.
