Contenders

I recently purchased walleye fillets. I was intrigued -- and I decided I want to make this a weekly thing. I want to make an incredible dish for myself once a week. I'm thinking the menu will be as follows:

Walleye With Pecan Butter Sauce
Asparagus tips
Mashed sweet potatoes

We'll see. Although, I'm thinking I've got the right idea with the mashed sweet potatoes. I'm just thinking about how nice it will be with a bit of cream and nutmeg. Oh it will be so nice! I should get wine as well. I feel this is too nice to drink with water.

Oh I'm excited!

Things in my head:

Practice
Responsibility
Faith
Dialects
Grace

Edit :

None of that has anything to do with gay religious shit. Which reminds me, tried to like a Christian.

Fuck. That.

My good friend Justin is sitting in the chair. How great is this picture?

Thank you guys.

Suprisingly, this picture was not posed in the slightest. 6 course meal with wine pairings? This will happen. This was in Lucerne, Switzerland. I prefer the french spelling, rather than the german Luzern.

That picture is of me and Tom. Tom is a very good old friend.




Hey guys, thank you for always encouraging me and being positive. Thank you so much. That means a lot to me. This a big year. Very big year. Thank you so much for doing what you do, doing what you say, saying what you are, what you want, and being. Thank you, most of all, for being. Each one of you reading this.

Fuckin dead

Big fan of the "auto fix" button on my shitty photo editing program.

Honestly.

Current Work in Progress: Jesus Camp

So yeah, not my political statement or anything.

It's just, have you seen Jesus Camp? There's this compelling little kid Levi, who aspires to be a preacher. He even does a few sermons throughout the documentary. He's homeschooled and taught that evolution and global warming is a myth. You know, all that extremist stuff. Anywho, this shot blew my mind. I mean, yeah, it's set up to do that, but hey. It says something.

The more I think about it, I hate it really. But I really wanted to draw that sweet rattail.

I took a series of pictures today that I hate. I also kind of hate this drawing. Man, it's one of those days.

Snow Day

Rather, Ice day.

Which, reminds me. Olivia Locher has taken my favorite series of pictures thus far this year. It's her Ice Storm.

Outside from Inside, Outside from Inside, Outside from Inside

Outside, Inside

HAHAHAHAHA

My heart's singing, man.



Drive on, Driver.

Great Performances and Pimps

Warning: this involves tap dancing and stripping.



I remember, as an impressionable 14 year old, finding this incredibly attractive in every way something can be attractive. After viewing it tonight, I still agree.

I've been thinking about great performers and performances lately. Movies and actors, I guess. Real theatric shit, man. Intense scenes, scenes that require real talent. Lookin to the greats. And, Christopher Walken man. He's got it. Watch "The Deer Hunter". They all have it in that, but christ man. Also, the Sicialian theme in "True Romance". Walken and Hopper, man. KILL it! What an incredible villian, you know? He plays the best kind.

Which brings me to my next point - in the scene I just posted, Christopher Walken plays a pimp. A real slick one, you know. No funny business. Pimps are always one of the most fucked up characters you can have in -- anything. SO... I've decided that I think I'm going to research pimp culture.

What do you think?

I feel like I may have gone off the deep end and no one is going to be able to relate to me at all soon.
