Show Me Love
...and I'll shower you with gifts. Oh, and I'm running a fan art contest too, in case you were interested.
Yep, the newly formed InkTank Studios is having its first official contest with some prize support from one of my favorite affiliates, Sideshow Collectables. With just a simple flick of the pen, a click of the mouse, a slap of the clay, a ... sew of the ... thread, a ... uh ... ink of the ... needle ... tattoo ...
Just do some cool fan art in whatever medium you like and send it my way for inclusion in the Fan Art section and you just might win some swag. You can check out more details and the rules on this page.
Elsewhere on the web, I've bene spending far too much time at Hulu.com checking out tons of shows. In particular, I like to have a little Babylon 5 going on in the background while I make the strip. Lately though, I've found some nice reality shows in Carrier and The 808. both shows are in that documentary style of following people in their everyday lives. The 808 was a big surprise for me because I thought it was about gang life or something, but it's actually about surfers living on the North Face of Oahu and their day to day lives. It sort of reminds me of the documentary Dogtown and Z-Boys, with more of a focus on the surfing part. Carrier is a PBS series and is just all kinds of awesome.
I prefer the "real" reality shows as opposed to "reality shows" where you trap ten super models in a Manhattan loft and make them eat cat poop or get voted off the show. I hate that crap. The shows that is, not the actual crap. Although I do hate cat crap as well, just not as much.
And continuing the pantheon of celebrities who I looked up to and are now dead, George Carlin passed away on Sunday from heart failure. Man, it may not be people in my own social network, but this strip seems strangely ominous.
Oh, and many thanks to everyone who's been donating to the Around the World efforts posted in the previous blog. It is really appreciated and the gang wanted me to send along their heartfelt thanks. You're really making a difference.
You guys rock!

As far as "real" reality shows go you should watch 30 Days, it's hands down my favorite.
Really? What is 30 days about? I thought it was a horror/vampire movie.
It's the Morgan Spurlock show (e.g. "Super size me" & "Where in the world is Osama bin Laden?"). He spends 30 days in various situations and documents his experience.

A better site that Hulu.com is http://www.surfthechannel.com
they have allot more shows and episodes. Including all 5 seasons of Babylon 5.
