2010 - don't be afraid of your dreams / Go West

The title, is based on a NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET 4, Movie Soundtrack...
(( again, I'm borrowing this idea to blow some steam.))

01.) waiting to get a pen replacement - from www.amazon.com for the intuious tablet, ver 02.
--- why break the bank account, to get a new ver 04... and end up learning software I don't need ?

02.) you must remember why being an Illustrator was so important...
--- There's people who suffer from worse fates, such as Arthritus and Broken Bones.

03.) don't cheat yourself from an experience...
--- Sure, it's easy for someone to criticize why you did something, such as how to screw up a meal. The trick is to just serve it, in order accept what was lacking, or what was too over-powering... so the next chance a person gets will consist of doing with some more thought.

What I've learned, from Living in Portland Oregon...

Joesph Meek, Famous for Settling the Oregon Territories, in the 1840's --- taught me a valuable lesson about what it means to have Passion in your soul for something. At first, I considered the idea of wanting to capture a ghost on camera... and try to imagine landing an "interview" where I could ask questions...

What you see on Television, such as T.A.P.S. on Sci-fi - is not what really happens from the way that you have to experience being visited upon. Especially when you upset the dead, by just being impolite and using completely rude comments and gestures that could get someone killed or punished in certain cultures. (( Meek, told me that just because a Plummer at the Roto-Rooter can just visit some haunted places, doesn't make a person a master at their craft.))

This famous U.S. Trapper, Lawman, States-Person who was often mentioned in Grade School History Text-Books was actually "inviting" me to visit this place off of Hillsboro, at Hwy 26 that leads towards the Coastline.... by Mountain Bicycle !!!

(( Some day - you might understand why, Spirits eat up Cell Phone Batteries... in order to materialize with all the negative ions in the Atmosphere. Perhaps Tinsel-town Film Makers really should get a load of how MEEK makes an entrance. )) Yet, I don't know how to best explain or even write this down on paper.... like i don't have a knack for words... and Stephen King might do a better job than I ever could.

Meek - told me in his own manner, that the TOTAL OPPOSITE could be true...

The Dead can indeed seek someone out --- and you don't argue with that.
(( Trust me... don't ever argue with someone who has a keen sense of observation skills.))

--- You must be careful what you wish for...

I did have a fantasy, of being in a Haunted Area --- but never in my wildest dreams... and I really had no idea what kind of danger is involved with listening to the dead, talk my ears to the point of burning my lobes.

Anyway, hate to end this ... but, I'm not all that familiar with Blogger.

Blog experiment - loading some artwork...

Bought my first WACOM ART TABLET, in March of 2003, with a cheap ass Macintosh Computer that was won over some Government Settlement.

The initial idea was to continue my study as some kind of hack illustrator. ( If a village idiot can draw and get published... so could I, mentality.)

You really can't look backwards - but I missed the idea of doing felt tip pen work. Yet, this was quite UNCHARTED TERRITORY... and jumped in.

Face your fears... it's who you are.

Discovered by accident, on a search engine - that a former "dude" in my past is still editing stories.

Keeping this short, he probably wont write me again - ever !!!
(( It would either end badly, or I'd still hear him say --- I screwed up my life. ))

My Psychotherapist had to move out of California State, because of my Maniac Father... and the Police having to tell me that "For your own Protection, you can't go back home in San Diego."

There had been stories --- that My Father stalked everybody in a rented Yellow Taxi Cab. He even chased down a former room mate who was a Hair Stylist at a posh place called Chequers, near Laurel and some place called Balboa Park.

---- One of strange things about formally dating a reporter, is the kind of people you meet.

One day I drove a Motorcycle back to an Apartment Complex, I rented in North Park from Imperial Beach... from Freeway 05. There's this Dude, Frizzy Blond Hair - and enjoyed a certain brand of beer called Pauly Girl.... It was the guy that threatened Mark, and said he was going to bomb a former office / living quarters of where I helped earned money to help finance and pay the printer at Trident Offset Web, in Lemon Grove... (( His name escapes me, but Mark likes to keep Photographs of Every Guy he dated in on a bookshelf... with all his NOIR FILM BOOKS.)) and .... half of me wanted to cry, I've turned into one of those "x" friends, just like the singer Gwen Steffani talks about ( No Doubt ) and allowed that character to ride on the passanger side, and took him where he needed to go.... back at University Avenue.... I'm actually letting go of being angry at someone, and over events that couldn't be helped.

---- Nobody will ever believe me now...

Have to go feed the cat.

Organizing my priorities...

Again, it's been a while.
--- There's been some changes on the internet.

Facebook is one place that Myspace was once good for: Connecting People.

I've been making some effort with updating both of these sites - and as well, have been posting material for youtube, and ning. ( still keeping an eye on the news, about having to pay for it...)

T.G.

First attempt with Blogger.

Nope, haven't considered to use Blogger before.

Live Video - is offering a different format, as oppose to YOUTUBE. So I felt motivated to see if I can design something where it's possible to show my 2D Animation tests, and comic book art projects.
