I just thought I'd post this real quick between projects...
I've been working on a lot of things lately, but too many to mention. Just shows and stuff. Anyway, I recently posted a video me and my brother and my friend made of us skating about a year or two ago...
...The link is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tjA5zHLkQy4
Please comment on it... any feedback is welcome.
If anyone is still out there I will take some time to post some work. Some pics and drawings on here and videos on youtube.com

Grumpy Co-workers...
I haven't posted for a while (in like over a month), I've been just skating and working. But I thought I'd just add this little nugget:
Where I work is in a huge office building run by the government called Jobcentre Plus. It seems to me that everyone who works there is either in a close nit group and bitches about everyone else or they sit on their own and everyone says stuff about them. There's a bloke who does the same job as me and I think he's cool, however the other people I work with won't talk to him because of what they've heard off other people... do people nowadays not take the time out to meet people? Theu must get an approval off someone else before they even consider it. It's a joke!
With all the heavy shit goin on in the world today you would think that people could put aside the need to be petty, but no, they continue to be horrible to people they barely know.
Maybe I'm being petty just thinking about it, but I beleive that when you get to a certain age you stop the whole "I'm not talking to him/her" mindset, just be and adult and get on.

Something random...
An interesting (and also funny) thing happened to my brother while he was working last week. He works as a car part fitter in a very prestigious company called Kwik Fit. They fix punctures, fit new tyres, fit and repair exhausts, fit batteries, etc…
Anyway, on this particular day, a woman calls the depot do say she has a puncture however she cannot bring the car in. Fortunately, the car is situated only a few hundred yards up the road. So my brother, Daniel, reluctantly drags a jack and the needed tools to the car in trouble.
The job is going nicely after five or so minutes, the tyre is off and Daniel and the woman seem to be having a little chat, when all of a sudden a seagull feather falls from the sky and lands at the feet of and old woman walking past.
The old woman picks the feather up and heads towards the woman saying “This feather is especially for you, it was dropped by an angel for a loved one that you miss”. All the while, my brother witnessing the entire event. Bearing in mind that the garage Daniel works in is like a stone’s throw away from the sea, in a place called Tynemouth. The woman keeps going on for a while about fate and spirits and eventually toddles off. And as soon as she gets to a safe distance, the bemused woman turns to Daniel and says “was she serious?”, Daniel shrugs and says “I think so!”
Anyway, Daniel felt he still needed to charge the woman the full £17.50, seeing as though he had experienced all that after dragging a heavy jack then had to drag it back again. She wasn’t getting off that lightly.

Bowling!!
What and under rated sport that is!
Me and my brother played for nearly six hours straight on Sunday and it was the best time I've had in ages...
I'm seriously taking it up now, and I've even bought shoes (mainly cos the rental ones are shit!)
.....well, it's something else to do while I wait for the end of the world isn't it?
STRIKE!!!

Intolerance...
We are all the same aren't we?
So, was I right to get annoyed at someone (at work) who referred to a gay person working in the same building as "that puffta bloke!"... and also making 'ching, chong' noises when talking about the new movie Memoirs of a Geisha.
I'm so glad that this woman (that's right, a woman) is going back to her normal job at the end of this week and leaves me the fuck alone!
