I remember starting this journal with that in my brain.  I don't actually remember now, why I wanted to do it.  My reason has changed over the years I guess.  At first I just thought it was cool, but I couldn't draw, so I decided "I will get better at drawing, I will draw a webcomic!"

I also remember wanting to change the way webcomics are published ( Read more... )

You know, I play a couple of wargames, I've been to a few tournaments, but one thing bugs me.  There is this growing divide between 'competitive' and 'casual' players...but in reality I think this gulf only exists on the internet.

The other day as I was driving down the road, I saw a truck with yellow stripes on the back of the tailgate.  Now, this is not an uncomon symbol, lots of construction vehicles carry caution stripes...but, this is a tailgate, I didn't see the reason for it at the time, was it simply to fit in with the other vehicles on the site?  Or was it going to ( Read more... )

The new system of a down album.

"But star! They broke up!"  I know, but between Elect the Dead and Scars on Broadway you basicly HAVE the next album.  Its all the same musicians (even the drummer, who actually worked on both projects) but the thing is, both of them seem more 'unfiltered' than a SoaD album.

See, System's normal stuff was dark, but it ( Read more... )

Why do you consistently write scary sci-fi stuff involving the following

1. A Mining ship (or other vessel with sparse amenities)
2. An alien infection/parasite
3. A bunch of deranged doctors
