Here are some pictures of Christmas presents that I made for my awesome twin brother, Mike, and my wonderful friend, Peter. The first 2 pictures are of a hand-made (hand-carved and hand/power-drilled oak, hand-sanded, hand-painted (acrylic), protective-spray-gloss-finished) cribbage board that I made (it took me about 25 hours to do) for my brother. I ordered the pegs from Pete's Pegs and I couldn't be more happy. My family all loved playing cribbage with the board this past weekend when we visited them, and I'm sure it will be around wherever Mike's soul tells him to go in his life. The other 4 pictures are some photo-manipulations I did and printed out 4"x6" copies of and put into individual little basic black frames to give to Peter for part of his Christmas present. I got the idea to manipulate photos of my hands in some way for him because he always tells me how much he likes my hands. I decided to name them, "Why..." (left hand), "...Create?" (left hand), "...Create?" (right hand), and "Why..." (right hand), as some sort of artistic message to the world, or something like that... I don't really know. I wanted them to be viewed as one whole composition in this specific order, even though I framed them in individual frames.

So I'm getting angry messages from my fans (all 2 of them, myself included) saying that I should make more comics and that I should make posts more frequently and I sort of agree. I have a lot going on in my life lately, and I'm sorry, but here's some song lyrics that represent how I feel:
"I'm a tightly wound mess, neatly perched inside my own distress. How fast we burn. How fast we die. It's really just a matter of time before it happens. It's the nature of the experiment. They're taking me in increments. All I want for Christmas is my two front teeth and some mistletoe all up in this piece."
I could recite a thousand song lyrics that relate to how I feel. They would all pretty much portray me eXactLy iNaccurateLy in some sort of paradoxical sense, so I've decided to just come out and say it all in a comic strip for the world (or my 2 fans) to see. Let me know if you like it. (Don't take it too seriously, I have another one coming up shortly that makes this one funny and not so, well, emo...)

Here's an all pencil drawing (8.5" x 5.5") that I have made for myself to look at and read every day when I wake up, and every night when I go to sleep. It's also at my desk at work so that I can look at it and read it there, too. Click on the thumbnail to open up the picture in a new window. Feel free to use it centered on your desktop, or print it out, or whatever. Let me know if you like it. I took the picture with my camera, so it's not the best scan, but I did edit it to make it more saturated and cropped. If you want to figure out what it says on your own, don't read past the thumbnail.

Biko, toughen up. I am happy! I love my life! I smile a lot. I have many talents and abilities. I am a special, unique, and great person. I am the director of my destiny. I can accomplish anything I choose. A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step. Confucius. Today is a great day!

So I realized that my Rainbow Mega wallpaper wasn't exactly the way I wanted it, so I re-did it. It's still not really perfect, but hey, nothing is, right? I think it's a lot sharper, cleaner, and more vivid, plus I changed the way the rainbow colors were laid out/blended into each other.

Here are 3 new wallpapers. They are all influenced by some shirts I saw (the Demon Voodoo t-shirt, Demon Bandit hoodie, and the Fox Dusted t-shirt... sorry, I couldn't find links). I liked the scratch/scribble style of the first two and I've always liked rainbow designs, so I just went with these designs in mind for inspiration using my Mega face logo and the words eXactLy iNaccurate... For the record, I'm not stealing designs, I'm just stealing the idea and then creating the art myself. Click on the links underneath the thumbnail for whatever size you need - 6 to choose from.

So, this isn't an official update yet... I'll be posting new Hate and Love List entries, maybe a new comic strip, some art, and some other random stuff throughout this week. For now, here's a picture of my Halloween costume from this past weekend. I was Bill from HBO's new show, "True Blood." How do you think I did?

Happy Halloween! It's the best day of the year, and since I haven't made an update to the site in almost 2 months, I figured I'd post the pumpkins that my brother-in-law, Jeremy, and I carved last night. (I've been away and super busy at work, too, but I promise to make some sweet updates in the next couple of weeks)

Jeremy made a Wario one

I made one of the BeetleJuice Snake...

I can't take credit for the designs. They were found here.
