The Story of My Life









So Dustin found this comic in the paper and cut it out for me. I am a graphic designer and find myself constantly on the computer. There are many times where I have questioned whether I am in the right field though. I love it, but sometimes I get the feeling that there is a secret computerhood plotting evil against me. Things always go wrong when computers and I get together! I can't tell you how many times I have gotten into a bind and called a tech support guy or a fellow designer for help, just to hear them say, "What in the world have you done? I've never seen that before!" ha! That's just what I want to hear the tech support guy say! :)
So anyways, this little comic brought a smile to me and I thought I'd share it with you. Enjoy!

Kids, Ninjas, and Jetskis

So on my first real post on the blog, I decided to tackle not 1, not 2, but 3 (count 'em 3!) topics!

First, kids. Kids these days are growing up so fast. And it's always nice to see supportive parents. I saw this article today on MSN and it just warms the heart to see how parents are helping their kids do things never before thought possible. A couple in India had so much faith in their 15 year old son and just wanted the best for him that they
cheated, forged records, endangered human life, concealed evidence, and abetted a crime just to help their kid. What was the son doing you might ask? Nothing much...just delivering a baby by C-section to set a world record as the youngest surgeon ever. Nothing says love like putting someone else's life in danger just to see your kid's name in the Guinness Book of World Records. I mean, these are parents that have their priorities in order. If only I can be half as supportive as these parents when I have a kid. :) Here's the whole article...

Next on the list, ninjas. That's right ninjas. To whet your appetite, allow me to quote from "The State of the Ninja":

Ninjas are everywhere. Ninjas are in movies, ninjas are on TV, there is probably a ninja clinging to the bottom of your desk right now. With their roots in the battlefields of 14th-century Japan, ninjas were assassins who practiced the art of ... oh, who cares? It doesn't matter where ninjas came from. All you need to know is that ninjas can totally kill you without even thinking about it. In fact, ninjas are so lethal that it takes an enormous effort of will for them not to kill you. You are only alive because a ninja is trying very hard not to shoot a blow dart through your neck right this minute.
If that doesn't make you want to read on, then I don't know what will. Here you go...

And finally, jetskis. So this is pretty much just for Peter, and, actually, I'm pretty sure he doesn't even know this blog exists right now, but I'll fix that right after I finish this post. Anyway, I was checking out the latest HomestarR
unner short and, lo and behold, there was a jetski! And not only a jetski, but to my untrained eyes it looks like a stand up! Maybe a superjet, but I'm leaning more towards a 550. Maybe a 450. 350? Here's a screenshot I took for proof. If you want, you can also check out the whole video (it's actually not too bad!).
