                <description><![CDATA[ Okay folks I'm going out on a limb here, but if any of you blokes who look at my journal are both twenty-one or older AND are in or near the San Diego area this Thursday, than you should TOTALLY come to a show involving my friend's band, Black Spot (<a href="http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=193613539">[link]</a>).  It's gonna be at a bar in OB called Dream Street Live (<a href="http://www.dreamstreetlive.com/page/page/1636889.htm">[link]</a>).  It's a six dollar cover charge and there'll be other bands going on too, but Black Spot goes on about nine-ish, or so I'm told.  Hope to see someone there!  Oh and remember to tell them at the door that you're there to see Black Spot!<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So first off, I REALLY wish DA would freakin' let me change my posted mood cause I sure as hell ain't content.  We lost someone very big in the comedy world today, the Hardest Working Man in Showbiz, George Carlin, has died.  His smart, scathing and unique humor will most definitely be missed.  Rest in Piece you angry, ANGRY man, we will all miss you like crazy.  In closing... shit, piss, cunt, fuck, cock sucker, mother fucker and tits.  Oh, and fart, turd and twat.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ So I'm totally on the cusp of quite literally nine pieces of artwork, and I have a pretty good idea of what they're all going to be.  By pretty good I mean "Juuuuuust enough to not have enough to put it on paper."  Ah well.  I'm willing to idea pitch if anyone reading this wants to gimmie feedback or throw around some ideas with me, drop me a note.  In any case, one I clear the hump, you can expect a big surge in art added to my gallery! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/b/biggrin.gif" width="15" height="15" alt=":D" title=":D (Big Grin)" /><br /><br /> ]]></description>

Hopefully these last to submissions weren't just a one-hit-wonder kinda deal c.c  On the bright side, school is no longer a problem as I am a college graduate now!  Not to say that the real world won't be as distrating, but it's a different kind of distracting.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ FIRST 10 PEOPLE TO REPLY TO THIS JOURNAL GETS FEATURED ON HERE (a.k.a. I'll dive into your gallery and choose three of your best deviations (in my opinion) and post them up here, only catch is You have to put this in your journal if you choose to be one of the 10!<br />
<br />
1)  *AngesPurs ( <a href="http://angespurs.deviantart.com/">[link]</a> )<br />
<br />
      a)  I Spy ( <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/43875174/?qo=2&q=by%3Aangespurs&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> )  I really like this one.  The way the dress is done really stands out and it impressed the hell out of me.  It's a really good piece of work.<br />
<br />
      b) Rose Colored ( <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/43507750/?qo=9&q=by%3Aangespurs&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> ) This is another impressive work.  I like the details and the shading on the petals in particular!<br />
<br />
      c) Link from Wind Waker ( <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/42694109/?qo=18&q=by%3Aangespurs&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> )  Gyahaha, I loved this incarnation of Link.  Wind Waker was a great game, and this is a great depiction of lil' Link from the game.<br />
<br />
2) *GreenArrow ( <a href="http://greenarrow.deviantart.com/">[link]</a> )<br />
<br />
     a) Green Arrow - Process ( <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/44391674/?&q=by%3Agreenarrow&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> )  I was very, VERY hard pressed to only pick three of GA's works, but I've finally done it.  First, comes his namesake, with a wickedly awsome dynamic pose and good use of shading.  And it's the freakin' Green Arrow.<br />
<br />
     b) Nightwing - Process ( <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/43578403/?qo=15&q=by%3Agreenarrow&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> ) Another favorite hero of mine, I love the pose used for this piece.  The escrima practically leap off the page.<br />
<br />
     c) Hawkman - HQ ( <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/44276584/?qo=4&q=by%3Agreenarrow&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> ) And to wrap things up, an incredibly detailed piece of Hawkman.  The feathers (both real and fillagree on the helmet), the color and shading and even the body hair are all displayed in fine detail.  A wonderful piece.  And dammit, check out his gallery, there's a lot more where this came from!<br />
<br />
<br />
3) ~Kestrel-chan  ( <a href="http://kestrel-chan.deviantart.com/">[link]</a> )<br />
<br />
     a) For Me?  ( <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/38385137/?qo=4&q=by%3Akestrel-chan&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> )  Here is the first of Kestrel-chan's works that I will be pimping.  She's a good friend of mine and she's pimping out my artwork too, so it's only fair.  XD  Anywho, I should say more on this piece, but I'm too busy humming Katamari on the Rocks.  Needless to say, this is a cute and highly amusing little ditty of the Prince of the Cosmos from Katamari Damacy<br />
<br />
     b) Ambience II ( <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/30384181/?qo=23&q=by%3Akestrel-chan&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> )  I like this picture a lot, the extremes of light and dark and the reflection of the flames round it out nicely.  It's a bit fuzzy but I like the way it makes the picture look.<br />
<br />
     c) Figure Skating ( <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/38632858/?qo=2&q=by%3Akestrel-chan&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> ) Rounding things up, this is a fun piece that I got to see work it's way up in stages, as this is the first really significant picture to come off her tablet.  It's a picture that ought to bring a smile to the viewer.<br />
<br />
<br />
4) ~devilmanlady ( <a href="http://devilmanlady.deviantart.com/">[link]</a> )<br />
<br />
    a)  Dynamic Duo... 2nd Gen ( <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/24837241/?qo=4&q=by%3Adevilmanlady&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> )  For starters, this nifty piece.  I love the pose; motion towards the viewer has always been hard for me to do so I always like seeing it , especially when it's done well.  The color job is very well done as well.  It's one of my fave pieces from her.<br />
<br />
   b)  Xan portrait (<a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/23220883/?qo=9&q=by%3Adevilmanlady&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> )  I really like this one a lot.  It is simplistic in design but it works.  I especially like the facial expression and the way the eyes contrast with the rest of the picture.<br />
<br />
   c)  Superbat... WTF ( <a href="http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/23166117/?qo=12&q=by%3Adevilmanlady&qh=sort%3Atime+-in%3Ascraps">[link]</a> ) Because let's face it, this design is bad ass.  The subdued reds and blues make the fusion of Super and Bat work well.<br />
<br />
<br />
5)~Daimera ( <a href="http://daimera.deviantart.com/">[link]</a> )<br />
<br />
   a) Grind Up 'n Cut Loose ( <a href="http://www.devianta... ]]></description>

FIRST 10 PEOPLE TO REPLY TO THIS JOURNAL GETS FEATURED ON HERE (a.k.a. I'll dive into your gallery and choose three of your best deviations (in my opinion) and post them up here, only catch is You have to put this in your journal if you choose to be one of the 10!<br />
<br />
<br />
1) Waiting for *Nirelleth to update journal.<br />
<br />
2) Place a pencil on her hands and you can get fantastic doodles or totally realistic shaded people. Get her a camera and she'll capture some amazing scenes. Give her the remote control and she'll surely change for Spongebob Squarepants. Get her a computer and she'll beat your ass playing isketch! Here goes the multi-talented Becky!<br />

4) On it, fasten your seatbelts.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Yanno.  I really need to go through my scraps and get rid of the artbook scans I threw up there.  They're in there cause they're cool looking and I was using them for some online RPG thing and I hadn't secured myself some other webspace yet and I needed them accessable.  Though now I think they need to go bye-bye because of the last five or so favorites I've gotten, ONE of them was for my work, the rest for the artbook scans.  I appreciate people looking through my gallery but I really wish people would fave MY work, not something I scanned and put up on a whim (especially when I mention it's an artbook scan in the freakin' description).  Grr.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

ISPs want to regulate our internet so that only sites on their preferred lists will be accessable at full speed, if at all.  Online businesses would have to pay the ISPs large sums of money to be able to continue operation, which would, in turn, make their services much much more expensive.

                <description><![CDATA[ Yanno.  I should really stop trying to  proudly display my art in public  chatrooms, even if everyone in is my  friend.  Only a handful of people  really even look at my crap anyway...   On the bright side, I don't need  approval from people and I'm very happy  with my handful of people.  I'm just  really dissappointed with the beyond  lukewarm responces I get.  Which is  usually no responce at all <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/a/animesweat.gif" width="19" height="19" alt="^^;" title="Sweating a little..." />;  I guess  it's a pride thing.

                <description><![CDATA[ Wow.  I mean, WOW.  I have been feeling  really jazzed lately.  My confidence  has gone up, that inability to perceive  the feelings and thoughts others are  trying to make apparent through hints  and signs is wearing away, I've been in  a very good mood, my artist's block is  a thing of the past, and even my  posture when I walk is better.  Wow, if  I could get a nice little backrub, life  would be PERFECT.  Anywho, Gundam:  Encounters in Space is REALLY cool and  has re-inspired me to pick up an old  project.  So expect more from my Sonic  as Humans bit that I'm hinting at (I  still need a title.  Any ideas folks??)  and expect to see some Gundam related  art.  Peace out all! ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ Good times, good times.  Finally  getting a bit of a social life around  school.  Spent the whole day at the  beach.  Well, after work.  But still!   And my human-izing of Sonic The  Hedgehog for a comic is going rather  well.  ^_^ ]]></description>
