In photo news and due to my lack of posting, I bring you advertisements disguised as presents. It's a couple desktops, one blue, one red (I'm currently using the blue one), for you to download and use for yourself. It helps grow the brand in a way that makes your stuff look cooler, or, to put it another way, works just like a designer label... only I'm not charging an arm and leg for it. It's also my way of letting you know that my artwork is soon to be more prevalent on this site and it will be up for sale alongside my book as soon as I figure out the best way to go about it. So, until then, enjoy these:
To download simply click on the one you want and when the next page pops up, right click and select Save As... and remember where you stick it. They're both jpeg images, I know, they should be png but, screw that. They're supposed to be desktops and, for most people, that's the format they get switched to. Oh, and they're widescreen, so, 4:3 users, sorry.
In video news:
To those of you who've may have heard, my dad was half Scottish and half Italian, so, the running joke was that he looked like a mixture between Sean Connery and Super Mario (the mustache didn't help). On top of that, Italian jokes are all the rage nowadays and I hear them all the time because of him. That's why I immediately thought of him when I saw this video of the Italian Anti-Defamation League's protest of Super Mario Galaxy 2 at this years E3 expo. My heart beats full of pride.

In music news:
I bought a record. An actual 7" piece of vinyl, hand-cut down from a 10" which allows for edges full of fun, and by fun, I mean jagged slivers and by edges, I mean, edges. It's not round, it's square, but it still plays.
Anyways, it's from a band called Farewell Continental and they're a side project from members of various Minneapolis bands, most importantly Justin Pierre of Motion City Soundtrack. It's a far slower production than that band is known for and it's a perfect outfit for his voice to shine, especially when it's competing against the equally beautiful, female voice of the other lead singer. It's probably not for everybody, but it's only a 4-song EP so it's not a huge financial commitment to legally download the album, in either standard or lossless editions, from the Paper + Plastick store.
Me? No. I'm not sure about anything. From a to z, wine and zombies, I'm not sure how I feel about any of it.
