Birthday Violation
Is it just me or does anyone else feel violated when some huge company sends you a birthday card? Granted, it's a cutesie marketing ploy that does get your attention (as it was intended), but I haven't actually been a customer of this particular insurance company for over half a decade. Birthdays are supposed to be a special, private occassion...a personal holiday in and of itself. What's next, "It's a Boy! Good time to think about upgrading that passenger protection coverage, huh?"
Speaking of insurance violations....this time last year I completed the Flo and Erin Esurance piece, but I was also working on a second one by the same artist. Various things were going on which forced me to push it to the back burner, but upon receiving said indemnification card I decided to finish it. Maybe Mr Opportunity should think about upgrading his collision coverage...rear end accidents happen all the time.

Silly little fairy whelps....the Sword of Truth and the Shield of Virtue are no match for pure evil sexiness!

Irene Apocalypse?
Just a quick observation regarding Hurricane Irene hitting the Northeast this morning and the media-at-large. Normally when there is a tropical storm bearing down on central Florida you'll see a little 15 to 30 second blurb from the national media outlets. They smile, maybe crack a cheesy storm-related joke, then cut to commercial. Zero, none, not one iota of concern in their eyes
This morning however, I saw something completely different when I turned on the TV at work...Good Morning America, in a rare Sunday morning broadcast. Gone were the corny jokes and friendly smiles, replaced with real fear in their eyes and anxiety in their voices. Hardly the cool, calm, and collected demeanor that one would expect from such a long-running and well-choreographed "news source".
To listen to the majority of major media outlets you'd think Armageddon was upon them...call it "9/11: Part II" if you will. How easily they forget / overlook that we in the Southern states, from North Carolina to Texas, face these types of storms every single year. I still recall 2004 when the eye of no less than three hurricanes crossed over my house, one of which was a category four hurricane. Hell, it was like they forgot 2005's Hurricane Katrina altogether, dubbing lil' miss Irene with the less-than-deserved monicker of "storm of the century". Then again, "storm of the decade thus far" just isn't a real sound bite attention getter.
Now, this isn't to say that a category one hurricane (now a tropical storm) is any less dangerous than a full-blown Cat-5, nor should it be taken lightly....far from it in fact. Some times you just gotta ignore the media hype and change the channel. Better still, just turn the damned thing off...and turn on the less-than-riveting NOAA weather radio.
In other storm-related news, I'll be taking out the stick (that's a surf board for you land-locked folks) for the second day in a row. It ain't very often you see 8 to10 foot waves on the Atlantic coast of Florida...gotta take advantage of'em while they last.

The College Years
Over the past couple of years I'm sure you've seen plenty of KP "life after high school" pics...marriage, honeymoon, kids, employment (usually involving a stripper pole), etc...but what about the college years?
College is a rite of passage, a time to grow up, a time to meet new people, and a time to discover your passion. On one side there's being away from home and on your own for the first time, dorm life, picking a major, and lecture upon endless lecture. On the flip-side there's party after party, drug use, and the floating of countless kegs...all the while surviving on Ramen noodles and Mountain Dew.
Ah, but let's not forget the most important part of the college experience: sexual experimentation.

In all truthfulness I was working on this one around the same time I did the "Here's to Hoping" one back in February, but it didn't exactly meet (displays middle finger) deviantART's (laughably) strict content requirements. For whatever reason it sat dormant, unfinished, and collecting dust until fairly recently when an old friend and I were chit-chatting about meeting one another during our college years. She ended up dropping out and going into the "adult entertainment industry"....but we'll save that story for another day.

Takes Two To Tango
What, you've never seen two female autonomous robotic organisms from the planet Cybertron dance before? And here ya'll were, thinking that "two to tango" was gonna be a euphemism....yuh buncha pervs. :D
On an side note: It may be a little while until I post anything of significance, what with Hurricane Irene headed this way. Not to worry though....this ain't my first rodeo.
