Captain's treasure

I just heard someone mention the Captain's treasure.

Have you had one?
What is it?

Created by Gnu and one of his friends, it's a shot of Captain Morgans
spiced rum dropped into half a glass of Rootbeer. You heard it here
first!

(Unless you are here)
Captain Toad, on the go!

Argh!

TO whom it may concern:
My cell phone is screwed up. When you try to dial the # it will say you
have to dial a 1 or a 0. You don't, it's just messed up.

Call me @ home for new years plans, or ill be at the store until 4 or
so.
Captain Toad, on the go!

Morphine and SOAD

MY cracked out mp3 player has now decided to randomly combine System of
a Down with my Morphine CDs. It's like being on Heroin interspersed
with crack and meth.
Captain Toad, on the go!

Tha Bank

I was standing in line right here the other day, and a close-stander
that was wearing too much cologne kept assaulting my space. So I did
the only reasonable thing and farted. When the two smells colided, it
created a small, green cloud.

I don't know why, when there are 2 people in line at the bank, why they
feel that they must stand six inches from my ass. They ARE NOT going to
get to their teller any sooner. Besides, the little tensabarriers (look
on the top of them) aren't any sort of real barrier anyway. It is just
the illusion of a line, not a corral like they use for livestock. Them
fellas ride each others asses as well, but I'm not a cow or a sheep.
Neither are you. You shouldn't act like one.

Captain Toad, on the go!

I Kill Myself

I mean I think of myself as terribly funny, not anything violent. I save that for JTHM.

New swag over at the 704d.com store: A sticker


You can get the actual B.O.B. sticker over at my new PREMIUM cafe press shop, Diego Studios.

The funny thing is that The above photo, the standard Toadsays.jpg is a photoshopped image. The sticker I'm holding can actually be seen over here, wheras the toadsays blank.jpg resides over here: HYPERLINK! Now, in all instances you can see a bit of orange on the tip of my index finger. This is my actual orange skintone, that was somehow omitted (or left?) in the first of the Toad says line. That can be viewed here(NSFW) Linkaroo

So anyway, you can buy a photoshopped sticker of me, Toad, at the 704d shop, or you can buy the actual B.O.B. sticker @ http://www.Cafepress.com/diegostudios

Revelation

I used to date a bald chick in high school. She was fine, but her
girlfriend was way hotter. I got dumped by my girlfriend for the other
girl, but I just remembered that

BALD CHICKS ARE HOT.

Suffer

You must suffer for your art. You cannot let your art suffer for you. Because that is a BITCH MOVE!

I worked 77 hours last week. All I did was make a few silly designs for Aaron the truck driver, which are here:



These suck. I wouldn't be surprised if I never heard from Aaron ever again. I have finished one [1] panel from the next JTHM. I haven't made a new T-shirt design in a while, and I haven posted the new main page yet. (New Year's.) I'm so tired, all the time, that all I want to do is drink and sleep. Tonite, I shall do neither. Tonite, I'm, going to work till I pass out. It should be fun!

The newest member of Kati's Messageboard (not a poster yet) has a webpage as listed as this:

Pretty weird. I cannot find another Page, or any other sort of info on him. His username is xjscott05, like the name on the bottom of his page. Time to ask 009 to use some of his super spy tools to find ouut some info for me...

Okay, it appears he's some sort on non-posting spammer, he's listed on liek 1000 other messageboards, (I only looked at 4) but with no posts...

Dooce.com Is Great For Culture, Too!

I was at work a minute ago, and two employees were talking about Mormonism. I have no idea if I typed that correctly or not.

"Do you wear the magic underwear?" I blurted out. (It's my first experience with a Mormon.)

"You see?!!" the guy exclaimed. "I just got done calling them magic underwear! The guys have to wear them!"

"No, I don't wear the magic underwear." she replied, blushing in the most cute/embarassed way.


I related to them about how I read a website ran by a Mormon living in Salt Lake City, Utah (Like you didn't know) and about how she writes about her life and takes pictures and posts them on the internet. (Nevermind the part about how she's one of the main reasons I started this.) Earlier I talked to the moms about Flickr, and both demographics were equally dumbfounded. "Why would anyone want to do that?" "You mean it's where anyone can see it?"


To me, doing this Website thing, this pirate thing is like living on your own planet and being naked all the time. Why not? I mean sure out of all the billions of stars someone probably has a really sweet telescope. They can get a good shot of my package, but like, who really cares? A package is a package, and even though my package is important to me, there are a lot of better ones out there to go apeshit over.
If I'm an ant in an antfarm, then keep the cat away from the glass and don't shake up the sand, Yo? I don't mind comments from strangers, I think it's actually kind of cool. Tap on the glass, see what I do, but DON'T SHAKE IT!


Anyway, I digress. This web thing, that I've been doing for 1 year and just shy of 4 months is just second nature to me now. As far as the writing goes, anyway. The graphics are a constant challenge to me artistically, but not really the important part anyway. They are forced, seriously thought out pieces of design, wheras the actual "Blogging" for lack of a better word is just something I do. (Maybe that's why my writing sux>;-)) A part of myself that has always needed to be released. It's fortunate for me that I live in the age of computers, and there are others like myself and Heather Armstrong and Kimba No Limba and Aaron and Candy and Mimi Smartypants and Heather Champ and Kristy K and all of us crazy internet people. People who have helped pave the way.


I don't talk about it much outside of my computer chair. My folks don't know, my boss and co-workers don't know, and I don't know most of you. Still, it's not a lonely thing. It's a pirate thing.


AMF
P.S.
Dooce, if I really do decide to send this to you, so that I know you will read it and hopefully feel at least a little cool and pretty influential in a pirate-y sort of way, I just wanted to say thanks again, and please continue to harass your poor dog for my enjoyment. (Sorry Chuck!)
P.P.S.
I didn't forget Fussy and Fearless Sunflower and Mel and Sh1ft and Odd Todd and Rainy Pete and GEORGE! and Old Grandma Hardcore, it just wasn't working with the whole piece. I really should have left Fussy in tho.
[NEVER FEAR THE NAME DROP]

Mimi Smartypants Rules!

I'm not going to go into it, but just imagine... WHAT if we all had pineapple heads?


Thanks Mimi
Man, I miss the old Main Page.

I Can't Get No...

Just finished repairing my car. The tags expired in November and it's
been a mad rush to get everything done. I'm almost there, if I can just
keep the fuzz off my tail for another few days...

I Got Him Beat Today...

13.75 hours today, puts me at 45 for tha week. This was the shittiest day ever, and I didn't even have to fire anyone.

Aaron- Yup, it's a five minute Photoshop job. The duck bill is a poor rendition of the horn hat, for clarification purposes.

Man, I'm beat.

Kimba, You know how we roll. I haven't used film in years, I've just been busy running the store. Late, late, late.

Current projects I probably won't have time to finish:
Callendar
webcallendar
burried treasure
JTHM4
Overhauling the main page
Everything else

Yarg!
