5 Minutes and a Pencil
June 29th, 2010 | 
Author: I was spacing out the other night and drew this in a couple minutes. It turned out to be half decent; So I decided to put it up here.
I did not put up the rest of the page this was on. This is about double the size of the original.
No adjustments were made to the scan other than cropping. (and desaturating it. For some reason graphite always looks purple on my scanner.)

Last night I was dicking around with a pencil. A while later I noticed this drawing on the desk and thought it looked pretty good. ( I wasn’t trying to make a good one; I was just doing a foreshortening study.)
So I figured I would chuck it up hear for all to see.
Just a number two pencil on printer paper. I made no contrast adjustments to the scan.
Internet Explorer BAD! Firefox GOOD!
If this site works on Internet Explorer, it would be a fucking miracle.
I did not set out to exclude IE. That was the deliberate choice of Microsoft. If you are a fan of Microsoft you have my deepest sympathies. But the rest of the world can no longer afford to bow and yield to your ignorance, nor their arrogance.
The only valid reason to use IE anymore is that you are new to computers, IE came with it and you don’t know any better.
Don’t misunderstand, I do not bitch about MS because I hate them (I don’t) but because they do stupid shit sometimes. And one of the stupid-shit things they did was put “features” into IE to set it apart from other browsers. (ie-non standard) Their thinking was if they have some nifty whiz-bang features they would entice people to make pages that feature the quirks of IE. Then, when enough of the internet is suckling at their teat, they would change the program till it was different enough for everyone to have to make a choice between using IE, or NOT doing business at all. (Mwa-ha-ha)
But anyway, to paraphrase Mark Antony, I come to bury IE not to piss on it. The point is, getting Firefox or Chrome would benefit you in billions of ways. Not only does it help prevent PC infections, but you would be able to see my movies. What more reason do you need?
It’s easy to do. Its free, and somewhere down the line. You’ll thank me.
Unless you don’t want to, then don’t.
PS-Just so there is no mistake here, I am not real happy with Safari either. I don’t like these irritating control-the-world games no matter who is playing them.
