I'm not really "here in Pittsburgh" anymore, but I also don't want to rename the blog "Here in Endwell" because I don't think I'm going to be here very long (at least, I probably shouldn't be). So I guess it'll just be "Here in Somewhere" for a while, but you can still get to it from the normal address.

Class of '07
I'm fairly certain that I'm done with school now. I don't know if I can say I've officially graduated or have a masters yet, but hey, no more teachers, no more books, no more Laura's dirty looks!

Sneak Peek
For those impatiently anticipating my next masterpiece, here's a preview. The girl isn't nearly finished (and due to all the homework I have, probably won't be for a while) so she's not present, and the final background will be a lot different.
I know, I know, you're thinking, "WOW! Did he take a picture of himself?" No, this is actually a drawing, believe it or not.
[Update: the picture is slightly different than before, but alas, still no girl.]

More Art
Hopefully no one saw the first draft I put up last night. This is a picture I drew on the computer. There's still a few things off with the perspective, but I'm tired of editing it. If you're curious I drew it first in MS Paint (hence the rough lines) and then shaded it, did the reflections, etc in Photoshop.
[UPDATE: Though I told myself I wasn't going to waste any more time on this picture, I fixed a few more things, which most people probably wouldn't notice but make me feel better.]

My Veteran's Day Party
A couple months ago my roommate and I threw a party that only one guest came to. You remember that story in the bible about the man who invites rich friends to come to his party but no one comes, so he turns to the poor? Well, I thought that by going directly to the poor to begin with (my college student friends) I was following the message of that parable. But as it turned out even the poor didn't come. So this time around when I threw my Veteran's Day party I invited my rich celebrity friends, who all came.
Beyonce liked how her dressed matched the red decorations and Gwen Stefani appreciated the "MOM" window dressings. Jim and Pam from "The Office" were there, as well as Steve Carrell and his wife, Britney Spears and the Bushes (George W. and Laura; the seniors couldn't make it).
Two uninvited guests tried to crash the party, but overall it was a success.
Ben Roethlisberger stopped by for a little while, and he and Timbaland did an impromptu performance of "Give It To Me" (who knew Ben could sing just like Nelly Furtado?). Some people had a little too much to drink (ahem, Mariah Carey dancing in the shower).
Pope Benedict XVI made a surprise appearance towards the end of the party, which was really special because originally he had "regretfully declined" but found time in his hectic schedule after all.

The Nameless Dragon
I really like the dragon I drew, even though he definitely should have had a second hind leg. Anyway, I wanted to give him a name for the credits of the video, but I couldn't think of anything. Suggestions?
A side story about dragons: in Europe I saw a crystal dragon that I considered buying as a gift for someone, and my friend said he felt uncomfortable purchasing anything dragon related as "dragons are often associated with the devil." I always thought dragons are cool, but I guess I was wrong.

Dragons, Cakes and Cream of Wheat
Kevin's little brother turns 20 today, but he's overseas in Europe for the semester, so Kevin thought we should make him a b-day video. It's not a spectacular video by any means, but I like the animation in the beginning. It doesn't make any sense, but here it is.
[UPDATE: Here's a shortened version with just the animation, so for my readers who don't know Robbie, you're not forced to watch the second half. And as my readers are, well, pretty much my sisters and mom, this applies to pretty much anyone watching.]
