Awesome video

This is a great song and the video is pretty dope too. Check it out all you awesome people out there!

Why Ellen, why?

Have you seen these new Cisco ads with Ellen Page? They shoehorned Ellen Page into ads about Cisco systems technology featuring people who seem to care even less about Ellen Page being in the ads than the viewer. Is there some connection to Ellen and business technology that I just don't see? Was there a big conference call scene in Juno that I missed or was telecommunication a bigger part of Hard Candy than I realized?

Click to witness the awkwardness that is Ellen Page and Cisco.

Tell them they're old without saying a word

I don't picture a lot of people buying this for themselves, I think it's more of a gift item. This is something you buy for a loved one to say to them, "you're ready for the nursing home", without actually having to say it. It's also a nice way of saying, "you're as cute as a baby and a messy eater like a baby, so wear this fucking bib". Nothing could be more heartfelt and considerate.

Return of the mack

Sorry for the lapse in posts to my faithful reader (whoever you are). I moved earlier this month and was packing before that so my blog has taken a backseat. I hope to have more posts and exciting adventures to share.

Movie review—Shutter Island

This isn't a terrible movie but it's not amazing either. From the overbearing score at the beginning to the over-explanation at the end this movie is a cinematic bludgeoning. Scorsese ditches subtlety and instead makes sure the audience "gets it" by explaining to the point of absurdity and boredom.  


This isn't to say the movie doesn't have merit. The acting is superb and much of the movie is beautifully shot with an artistic eye and palette. I liked some of the film noir elements and the homages to Hitchcock were nice. 


In summary this is an enjoyable movie if you want some cheap thrills but overall not one of Scorsese's best.

Lunch Drawing 3-1-10

Yeesh I didn't post at all last month huh? Here's another drawing I did at lunch. It's more of a sketch than anything. I've been busy working on my next comicbook project but I hope to add more stuff soon.

Lunch Drawing 1-29-10

This is a rough sketch I did at work last week. It's a scene from the comic I'm working on so I thought I'd share.
