The Watchmen movie is supposed to be coming in 2009, so I picked up a copy of the graphic novel and have started into it. I’m not too far into the story, but it is very well done. When I first started it, I thought it was good, but I’d seen better: Fables came immediately to mind.

Bobby: if doc manhattin isnt nude in the movie im boycotting it
Bobby: >: |
Bobby: ill have a little sign
Steneub: like a no smoking sign, with a penis instead of a cigarette, INSIDE of a similar symbol – to show you’re against the banning of penises

Of course he’s kidding, but Dr. Manhattan is a blue energy man and he walks around naked (That’s not a spoiler – this happens in the first couple issues), and well, you see cock and balls. It’s not gratuitous and it’s makes perfect sense to see block and tackle there; one is simply used to censorship or to have it obscured or just out of frame.

I know pretty much nothing about Watchmen other than what I’ve read so far. It’s very good, and I want to see where it goes. I’ll probably have a 23 year-old late review posted when I’m done!

Not long ago, a coworker of mine, Alonzo, had some tickets to Nine Inch Nails that he couldn’t use anymore. They were really attractive tickets, but Ame and I decided to pass. I sent him a message after I came back from lunch

Steneub: Alonso, that’s a no-go on those tickets. Thanks though.
Alonso: k
Alonso: np i just got the slod
Alonso: them sold
Steneub: the slod, is that some sort of std?

Hah!

Weekends are turning out to be the best time for content around here – and I’m not even talking about my non-traditional Tuesday-Wednesday weekends that I have. Saturday and Sunday prove the best days to kick back and relax and play with my website.  There’s really a lot to do if you want; a public sandbox. Actually, a private sandbox that everyone can look into and see what I’m up to.  It’s more like a zoo I guess!

Saturday, I drew a Waffle Block. I need to scan it in and make it the front page for awhile. I’m proud of myself for sort of maintaining things around here semi-regularly. Oh, what’s a Waffle Block? Here, I’ll make it a little more clear:

[14:39] Steneub: waffleblock. hehehe

[14:48] Steneub: I’m currently drawing a Waffle-block
[14:48] Bobby: heh

[16:39] Steneub: my waffleblock isn’t perfect :C
[16:41] Steneub: butter and syrup will make it batter
[16:41] Steneub: LOLOL
[16:41] Steneub: better I mean
[16:41] Bobby: nono, batter

Bobby was trying to show me some images using Waffle Images, which I highly endorse as a matter of fact, but here at work it’s blocked by the filters. Boo. Some funny came of it though!
