These are the self made production companies that I am using. Green Hill Animation is part of Green Hill Productions (because i was to lazy to change it from animation to productions) and Vintage Arts does the effects (photoshop).

The Vintage Arts symbol came from an old high school picture that I made in MS Paint and I had used it on my editing project.

The Green Hill picture is a little harder to explain. When I started testing the animation capabilities on my computer I had made a stick figure. And, to understand how the arm moved, I made a silly looking thing that showed where the arm would move. Each color represents a different position of the arm. It was too complicated for it's own good and I ended up tossing that method, but I liked the way the object looked, so I made it the Green Hill symbol.

What the hell does that mean? Star Wars Fan Film Awards Entry. I am making one. For constant updates and videos, visit my MySpace page. (www.myspace.com/thistasteslikebutter)

Ha ha ha ha ha ha! I have returned! Tremble before all that is and all that ever was..... because my computer works again. (It's tremble worthy...) My myspace page is all fancy like. Check it out. It is the center for everything me. Links to here, there and everything else that I do. Also, enjoy those videos on my main page, they will be gone soon to make way for more links and some interesting pictures.

So, I have found a place that I could put my short stories. And, by the end of next week, I should have things up and running. I am also going to have my MYSPACE be like a navigation canter for everything I do. It will have links here, to the site where my short stories are (fictionpresss.com), my flickr account (I really gots to be taking pictures), and maybe a youtube account, but not anytime soon. It will also have a brand new look, crazy ass pictures (okay, they're not that crazy) and music. Everything will be put together (i swear) by the end of the year. So, here's to hopeing that I can actually pull this off without giving up halfway.

NOTE: While I did not finish the Josephine Dawson story on Live Journal, I will not be finishing it at fiction press either. It's over. I'm tierd of running that story though my mind again and again. I lived it and I've told it for nearly 7 or 8 years now. I'm done. You'll get a brief summery of it in the first story that I'll be doing called, "The Diary of Aaron Thomas." Josephine Dawson gets a chapter (A Girl- Part 2). That is all.

Here is a sneek peek at what the chapters will look like:

ME
MY HOME
MY FRIENDS
MY DAD
MY MOM
MY BROTHERS
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL
MIDDLE SCHOOL
HIGH SCHOOL
A GIRL- PART ONE
MUSIC
A GIRL- PART TWO
A GIRL- THE LAST
APARTMENTS
MY JOBS
A BRIEF FILM CAREER
WHERE I AM NOW

I might throw a few more in now and then. When I am done writting it, I shall make copies for all my good friends and fans (while paper and ink last).

Good evening. I thought it time we had a little talk. Are you sitting comfortably? Then I'll begin.

I suppose you're wondering why I've called you here this evening. Well, you see, I'm not entierly satisfied with your performance lately... I'm afarid your work's been slipping, and... and well, I'm afraid we've been thinking about letting you go. Oh, I know, I know. You've been with the company a long time now. almost... let me see. Almost ten thousand years! My word, doesn't time fly? It seems like only yesterday… I remember the day you commenced your employment, swinging down from the trees, fresh-faced and nervous, a bone clasped in your bristling fist. “Where do I start, sir?” you asked, plaintively. I recall my exact words: “There’s a pile of dinosaur eggs over there, youngster,” I said, smiling paternally the while. “Get sucking.”

Well, we’ve certainly come a long way since then, haven’t we? And yes, yes, you’re right, in all that time you haven’t missed a day. Well done, thou good and faithful servant. Also, please don’t think I’ve forgotten about your outstanding service record, or about all of the invaluable contributions that you’ve made to the company… fire, the wheel, agriculture… it’s an impressive list old-timer. A jolly impressive list. Don’t get me wrong. But… well, to be frank, we’ve had our problems, too. There’s no getting away from it. Do you know what I think a lot of it stems from? I’ll tell you. It’s your basic unwillingness to get on within the company. You don’t seem to want to face up to any real responsibility, or to be your own boss. Lord knows, you’ve been given plenty of opportunities. We’ve offered you promotion time and time again, and each time you’ve turned us down.

“I couldn’t handle the work, guv’nor,” you wheedled. “I know my place.”

To be frank, you’re not trying, are you? You see, you’ve been standing still for far too long, and it’s starting to show in your work… and I might add, in your general standard of behavior. The constant bickering on the factory floor has not escaped my attention.. Nor the recent bouts of rowdiness in the staff canteen.

Then of course there’s… hmmm, well, I didn’t really want to have to bring this up, but… well, you see, I’ve been hearing some disturbing rumours about your personal life. No, never mind who told me. No names, no pack drill. I understand that you are unable to get on with your spouse. I hear that you argue. I am told that you shout. Violence has been mentioned. I am reliably informed that you always hurt the one you love. The one you shouldn’t hurt at all. And what about the children? It’s always the children who suffer, as you’re well aware. Poor little mites. What are they to make of it? What are they to make of all you’re bullying, your despair, your cowardice and all your fondly nurtured bigotries? Really, it’s not good enough, is it? And it’s no good blaming the drop in work standards upon bad management, either, though to be sure, the management is very bad.

In face, let us not mince words: The management is terrible. We’ve had a string of embezzlers, frauds, liars and lunatics making a string of catastrophic decisions. This is a fact. But who elected them? It was you! You who appointed these people! You who gave them the power to make your decisions for you! While I’ll admit that anyone can make a mistake once, to go on making the same lethal errors century after century seems to me nothing short of deliberate. You have encouraged these malicious incompetents, who have made your working life a shambles. You have accepted, without question, their senseless orders. You have allowed them to fill your workspace with dangerous and unproven machines.

You could have stopped them. All you had to say was, “No.”

You have no spine. You have no pride. You are no longer an asset to that company.

I will, however, be generous. You will be granted two years to show me some improvement in your work. If at the end of that time you are still unwilling to make a go of it, you’re fired.

That will be all. You may return to your labours.

I have come to terms with the fact that I don't do anything important and that I haven't done anything worth while. Does that mean that I'm happy with it? Not really. I really want to film something, somewhere. I've got the film, I just don't have the idea. It's so lame. I used to be ful of ideas, and now: nothing. Just a void.

What is it that I need to do to fix this? What?

I also miss having a social life. Now, it's just home, work, home, work, home, work, home, work; and I'm sick of it... kinda. In a horribly depressing sort of way, I like my job, but only because of the people that I work with. There is not enought money in the Laemmle pockets to make it a worth while job if it wasn't for the people. I can't even imagine working with the people at the Falbrook or One Colorado, or Sunset (oh, God the Sunset people scare me). For some reason the TC5 (whoot!) is just my kinda place. And I feel that if I leave that job I'll lose those people. (But, I guess some of them need to get lost. And others will in their own time.) That's the reason I've stayed (that and if I ever go back to school, it's a good job to have for the open scheduele). It's sad.

But, most of all, I miss the people that I had but don't see anymore.

Elda and I are just too busy to get together or even commit to getting together to shake hands.

Richard is in Fontana, working, and getting hurt in the prosess. I never see him either. Maybe once in a while, but now I feel guilty because I'm taking time away from his son.

And that's about it. I have two friends. And I never see them.

But that's all over now.



So, I've been to Disneyland a lot and one of those times I went on the Pirates of the Carribean. The changes that were made were noticable and unimportant. It's still Pirates, but now with a story. A story that is based on the movie. Which is based on the ride.

I also ate at the Blue Bayou with Leia. Did you know that each meal, without drinks, is, on average, $30. I didn't. So, when I got there, I orderd the cheapest thing on the menu. (See below.)


That was $10.

They've also changed the Haunted Mansion a little. There is now more emphasis on the bride, and she is now a "killer wife." (Because she kills her husbands.)

But, other than my kabillion trips to Disneyland not much has changed. I am uninspierd to write and the Josephine Dawson page is just gathering dust (if web pages can gather dust that is).

But, I'll write more soon.

Oh, and I was supposed to write RAVEN and say something after that, but I forgot. Oh well.

Yes. I have Pink eye. And a respitory virus. Sounds awsome, huh? I lost nearly a week of work to this sucka. No more! Never again!

Yes. I am married now.

CA-RAY-ZEY!

Anyways, what up ya'll? I haven't seen you guys in a while. What's been going on? What? The Josephine Dawson story? What? Oh, that thing. Yeah... I'll get to it. I have a camera now. It destracts me from everthing that I need to do. And Flickr takes a lot of my computer time now. That, and Kingdom Hearts 2. (YEAH, SILLY VIDEO GAMES!!!!!!!!)

Anywho, thank you to those of you who were at the wedding and thank those of you who were not but wanted to anyways. And thank you for all those that I couldn't invite. I really wanted to, but it was all in a small backyard. There wasn't a lot of room. (although a lot of people didn't show up.... bastards.)

Well, I'm off for now. Look for wedding photos at my Flickr page soon.

I'm back, and with pictures!!!

Go Here for pics!

There are stories to come.

If you remember, one of my first entires was about the first 20 songs that came up on random. Well, this is part two, only it's not on randomand it's only 10 songs. It's the 10 songs I am listing to right now.

Ready?

Here we GO!
(Song name- Band Name)

1. Lillian Lies- Youth Group

3. Someday You Will Be Loved- Death Cab For Cutie
4. Eli the Barrow Boy- The Decemberists

There you have it. What I am jamming to now.

Alright. Chapter seven is up. Now, I'm still 5 chapters behind. April 14 is almost upon us, and I am only halfway. This blows.

Well, nothing else much to say. Except that I am sick of going to work. I am tierd of being there. I am sick of it all. But, it's not like I can leave it now. If I were to get a new job now, I probably wouldn't be able to get the week off for our post-wedding party. So, I just have to stick it out until then. But where to go? There are so many possabilities.

Hell, who am I kidding? I'll be at the Laemmle forever.

I hate people.

They walk all over you and when you call them out on it, they get all pissy. Screw them.

I wish that I could just say, you know what, screw you and the horse that you walked in on you selfish punk ass bastard.

NOTE: This is directed at people that don't read this. So, don't worry, dear readers, I still love you!

:-)

Argh! I'm so lame. I bought V for Vendetta. ARGH! I'm such a consumer whore. (Raven, I know... you don't have to say anything.) Why is it that I do things like that? I have to buy into the hype. Always. It's fun, I can't help it. Anywho, what's new?

Well, I've finished chapter 7 of the Josephine Dawson story. But, before you go and jump on over, I might as well tell you that I have yet to post it. Why? Because I am waiting to finish at LEAST the 5 chapters that I am behind. (And if i don't get it done this week, it'll be six chapters.)

Also, I (heart) Amazon.com. Did I mention that I got V for Vendetta? I also got The Watchmen. Tee hee. It was a deal! I got both for $25. If I went to the store, they would cost me $20 each. I saved!!! So, screw you, who hath made a fool of me, for now you are the fool.

So, ths past weekend, Leia and I bought wat too many movies. They are as follows:

Harry Potter and the Goblit of Fire
A Mighty Wind
Constantine
Walk the Line
Rent
Finding Neverland

Yeah. Too many movies.

So, It's been a while since I've posted links to things that I've seen on the inter-web that are of interest, and I think that I should do it now.

Bucky Done Gun by M.I.A. It's hard to get this song out of your head.
Stupid Girls by Pink. I'm not a big Pink fan, but she does put out some fun videos.
Robin's Big Date I've posted this before, but I am just love this. Sam Rockwell plays Batman, and Justin Long is Robin. It's perfect.
Hampsters! I've always loved this song, but without the hampsters it's just not the same. But, I guess mindless carnage is good too.
Leeroy Jenkins Online Video Game Haters rejoice! Proof that online games suck. Or, at least the people that play them.
Brokback Mountainin 30 seconds and re-enacted by bunnies. For more 30 sec. bunny fun, Click here


I guess that's all for now. Sleep tight (what time is it for you?) and enjoy your stay.

Things are going good for me. Again.

I've been writting the Jospehine Dawson story, so don't worry. I know that I am 3 chapters behind. =hee hee=

Sooooooooo.........

Yeah. I've got nothing interesting to say. I just thought that I should update.
