overrated

formerly known as "i make pretty pictures" because as a graphic designer, that is actually what some people think i do for a living, this blog will now be titled, "overrated" for a variety of reasons i do not feel like explaining. the focus will be somewhat eclectic, though sports, design, the arts and pop culture will be featured more and more. because these are the things that interest me.

i crashed my bike. again. in victoria park. again.
if this keeps up, my blog will cease to exist (cause i'll be dead) or become much more interesting (cause i'll be brain damaged).
stay tuned!

not a bad job i have here. in an hour i get to go downstairs and watch a giant keg get tapped to open a week long drunk fest. how many other city halls crack open a giant keg on their front lawn? not many i think.
and since O.P. asked so eloquently, for your enjoyment, why i hate rick the temp.

he took my job.
thats about as direct as i can get with that. i believe the year was 1993 and i submitted the most kick ass application to much music for their summer temp job. i also believe that it was one of the first years (if not the very first) that they promoted this contest. the closer it got to the date of the announcement, the less my phone seemed to ring. the day they announced rick as the winner, i immediately hated him.

finally, a way to profit from that useless soul you've been dragging around.
thanx tim.
i have yet to verify this, but if the following verse is truly in the bible, i have a new favorite quote.

Leviticus, ch 18, v 23: you shall not have sexual relations with any animal and defile yourself with it nor shall any woman give herself to an animal to have sexual relations with it; it is perversion

that should have been the 11th commandment.

i just realized that my post below will now gather me a whole new demographic of fans that find me when they google for "pictures of hansen". yay.
my tv watching hit complete opposite ends of my value spectrum tonight. while channel flipping, i watched taylor, zac and isaac hansen be interviewed by rick the temp (whom i hate and will fully explain that someday soon) on much. this has got to be the lowest pit tv has ever led me to.
after showering the stench that seemed to emanate from me after that 3 minutes of my life i will never get back, i then flipped to showcase where they were playing pulp fiction. ah, sweet redemption.

In reponse to the comments in the post below.
1) I really haven't had the time in the last little while to post.
2) and I really think that veela (yes, you) should not be thinking, caring or thinking about work at all. you are in Ireland or possibly on to another country by now. i want stories of the places you visited while on vacation. you need to concentrate on that and that alone until you get back, then you can care about work.
So there!
