          Who cares About Me?
          Those who know me would say that I'm very interesting & intelligent. Which is a lie. Those who don't know me think of me as an 'Artist'. Those who know me are aware that I scrub toilets & empty trash, for a living. Now, that's creative!
          I think of myself as somewhere between a magician and a technician. An escaped magic-act monkey and a real life 'Latka Gravas'* mechanic. I feel that I was born to capture this incredible and amazing world, on film. Unfortunately, I'm not witness to any of this. So, I'm stuck, in my room, digitally faking it, using Photoshop. 
          But, enough about me. What about you?
          How are you?
          Anything new?
          That's good.
          What has become of that... you, know... THAT little secret of ours? Yeah!, THAT!
          How is THAT turning-out? 
          Well, you know how it goes. Give it a few weeks and everything can turn-around completely, in your favor.
          Well... other than THAT <cring>... how are things going, for you?

          Geeezz... I never know how to respond to these things.
          ... really? What else can I say, besides 'really?' Oh, I'm so lame  :(
          That sucks. That REALLY sucks!
          Oh, my god! (not your god, MY god!)
          Oh, I hate when that happens. Better you, than me.
          Oh, my g'd... So, did you see a doctor about it? Yet?
          ... Oh, my god!! (again, not YOUR god... MY god!)
          Oh, my frigging, god'... So, did you see a doctor about it? Get the HINT??
          Why not? Oh, no. This is creepy. I'm talking to a future corpse.
          You think, so? So, this is how life is like, when you don't graduate high school. Not that there is anything WRONG with that. I'm so PC. ;)
          ...That's amazing! See, my life doesn't suck as much as I thought.
          ... That's terrible! See, my life doesn't suck as much as I thought.

          Here, in Vegas, I photographed one bird, then I Photoshop it into my photos. (That one bird, did happen to be a Vulture. No, not the casino type).
          What is the point of Photoshopping something into a photo?   Oh, you've seen my photos.


          Yeah, and I like the "unrealistic" quality. I guess photoshop is the most useful tool for that

          :)


          Jerry Nielsen> I figure that; if I were painting a picture, I could have the painting look any way I want. Since

          Im an even worse painter, and I have to do something with my spare time; I'll screw things-up with my camera,

          instead :)


          I don't know what to say! I don't know what to say.



          Well, I've got to go. Time to get off this merry-go-round.
          Good luck, to you! As, if I have such powers.
          It was nice seeing you! God, thank you for blessing me with a hobby.
