Yay! I had a high school intern during the summer, she came to visit me to tell me she's gonna go into advertising when she goes into college. I fell like I have done good... or something horribly wrong.
well, holy crap. I just learned that my [late] grandfather was part of an art show in '55 that was also showing work from Andy Warhol, Josef Albers, and a small handful of other notables. My uncle found a copy of the program for the show online - because we knew he'd been in that show, but we didn't know much else about it - and we just looked through the index of names at the back.
Sounds like your grandfather had a pretty good work ethic.
After seeing the amount of work in his drawing/printing studio downstairs (which is only his personal work, and the personal work he decided to keep, and doesn't even include any of his sculptural stuff)...yeah, I mean, goddamn.
I have very large shoes to fill.
Actually, now that I think about it, I think he spent time in his studio every single day. That was in his late 70's and 80's though...but I imagine he probably had very similar habits throughout his life.
Seriously though I swear I will be working on the work ethic thing this year...sometimes I need reality-and-motivation-and-craziness to kick me in the ass, and that specific cocktail hasn't hit me in a long while. I'm on it, though!

One thing I noticed, is that when watching a movie, if you make an explosion noise when someone lights a cigarette and throws away the match, it will always cause giggles.
Man, don't you hate it when you go through an entire day thinking it's one day of the week. Like a Thursday. But then you call someone, say, your mother, and she's all, "Oh hey it's Friday we were wondering where you were today, you were supposed to come down." And then you realize it's Friday.
@ND : Wow, that's seriously cool. Got any samples of his work?
Why the heck do they have to release all the good movies in the middle of the university term? There are at least six movies either out at the moment or coming out soon that I really want to see, and there's no way I have time to see them all. Or the money, come to think of it.

No matter what the context or scene.
Its not nearly as funny when there's an explosion in the movie though. It's like they're stealing your line.

Hmm, unfortunately, no. I've searched for his stuff online before, but there don't seem to be many images, at all (and none larger than thumbnail-size).
Oh you and your hardships. I bet you can draw a mean down economy and awesome absent minded roommates.
Unrelated, why does the captain have to go down with the ship? Seems like he should get to be the first one off the ship and onto the lifeboats. I mean, he's the Captain.

mostly they go down with the ship to avoid the disgrace and humiliation that comes with being a shitty sailor. Kind of like seppuku.
In modern days, though, the captain is the last one off because if he gets off the ship and there are other people trapped inside, it's a good indicator that he not only crashed a ship, but then left before people under his care had a chance to escape, thus failing his crew twice.
Well forget him; that guy's a real dick. I already apologized for that Alpha Centauri house burglary/stalking thing.
It was 10 years ago. Let it go Sid.
I just used a ton of energy doing a full tonal graphite drawing with a mechanical pencil in 3 hours...which I was quite proud of in class....only to get it home and look at it and think 'what a piece of crap'.

For the second time in several months, a train I was on hit and killed a pedestrian. I feel like I am living in a final destination movie
You need to call all your friends right now, and tell then they are going witness someone dying unless they do exactly as you say.

Guys, i just got back from the City Museum that's out where I live. Its like a 8 story jungle gym + a bar + live music + hipster chicks all rolled into one.
The best part? crawling through small tunnels and wondering a) "did my knee just give out" b) "huh, that girl in front of me has a short skirt" c) "Did I just get stuck?" d) "Who cares, girl in a short skirt."
Next time, go up there with a batman mask and hand out candy.

Not that I would do that, just sayin'.

HAw-haw!

I don't have those now.
So, sup?
In that case I should be able to draw homeless people, aggressive panhandlers, and mexican gang members.

I'm the captain dammit.
I have the feeling your crew would mutiny and take turns shitting in your mouth even before you got the chance to fail them once.
Why would Sid Meier even include that?
