Comics

Wow, these bring back some memories. These are a bunch of comics that I did in 2004-2005, on the old "Nate-Dawg's Castle" site. Looking through them again, I recognize that some (if not all) of them are pretty ridiculous. I don't know if I'll go back to comics again. I might give it a shot. It was pretty fun, after all, even if they are pretty dry and nobody sees them.

Real Life Love

This past week, as I was perusing through the internet, as I am wont to do, I found a few things that made me chuckle. I guess I was looking for something that wasn't as romanticized as the rest of Valentine's Day seemed to be. These are what I found.



This is from an Aussie group called Tripod. I've heard that they're pretty great, but this was the first time that I've actually seen/listened to them.





These guys, Flight of the Conchords, are a bit more well known. They're from New Zealand. I swear this blog isn't a plug for that part of the world, it just kinda happened this time.

This seems more true to life than all of that other lovey-dovey crap. Of course, I guess I wouldn't really know, and I might just still be disillusioned with V-day (no, not May 7 or August 15). Whatever...

Valentine's! Day!


My homemade valentine. Who says geeks can't be romantic? (Props to ThinkGeek for the idea.)

In case you're wondering, this particular valentine isn't going to anyone specific (or anyone at all). Just another opportunity to warn any girl who's interested in me what she's getting herself into. If she actually understands this, then either 1) she's the one for me! or 2) she's kinda weird.

What, a blog?


In short, yes, a blog. Ever since the pre-historic days of "Nate-Dawg's Castle" the idea has appealed to me. And now I'm back. This is basically a place where I get to unload all of my philosophical/ strange/ comedic musings. I don't really care how many people read this, or if anyone does. I'm just going to post the things I think are interesting or weird or funny or slightly anecdotal.

And, yes, the title makes very little sense. But I couldn't be stuffed to come up with a better name. Besides, it worked before.

I'm not hoping to keep to the style of the old Nate-Dawg's Castle at all, though I may fall back on it if need be. I might even start posting webcomics again, who knows? But you have my promise-- that storyline is dead, cliff-hanger though it was for many. And if I do start again, it will actually be funny.

I was in Australia for two years, and I realize that many people (i.e. maybe 1 or 2) wonder what the heck happened to me while I was there. Well, there were heaps of experiences that I'm probably going to relate, but as an aside, or in side notes. I don't plan to make it the focus of this site. But, since I am nothing but a people pleaser, if there is popular demand for it, well, we'll just see what happens.

So, a real post is on the way. In the meantime, I'm going to try to tweak this site to get it the way that I want.

By the by, anyone who is even slightly a geek should enjoy this appreciation for art.
