Out of the Deep

Really, a truly productive blog is one that has a driving force and draws a substantial readership. It should be relevant and interesting and outside of a personal spectrum.
Whatever.
Though I will try to not use it as my whining post to the world.

Anyway, please help out a friend of mine's sister. She's a high school senior who dreams of being a pediatric oncologist and could really use scholarship monies. Go to http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Help-Katie-Krog-win-20000-on-Zinch/327657689068?ref=ts and become a fan, then invite all your friends. Also, stop by http://www.zinch.com/Voting/Regionals.aspx?GroupId=63#Katherine-Krog and vote for her.

In other news, working on an external hard drive reskin design/model, drawing on predators (sharks, panthers, etc) and sports concept cars for inspiration. Spring break starts today, that's fantastic. Will be in Chicago this evening for a few hours, and be seeing Alice, in 3D. Would actually prefer the normal, "flat" version, but only the 3D was showing at the time I needed. When I first heard of this film project, I was terrified, because I happen to disdain most film adaptations of Carroll's works. However, since they've stated outright that it's not a book adaptation, I'm actually quite excited to see it. I do enjoy Alice extensional reimaginings, for example, the Frank Beddor series The Looking Glass Wars, which was a very fun (though unchallenging) read.

Could comment more on various subjects, but I need my hands to sketch and model, and I unfortunately don't have enough to work and type at once. Oh well, back to work then.

laters.

PS - I also seem to be...running out of television shows. Any good science fiction/fantasy that I should know about? Could be old, new, foreign, discontinued, what have you... For now, catching up on Primeval and occasionally Beauty and the Beast. I watch while I work. Overloading my sensory perception helps me stay on task. (Yes, I realize that concept will elude most people, but just trust me here. Although I'll admit that if a task requires an exorbitant of specific concentration, I'll switch to just music, or, rarely, silence.)
