Morning monkeys!

Had a nice Father's Day yesterday. Cookout at my little sister's house with the entire family. Got pictures of all of us with Mom and Dad.

Another day of sitting around, surfing the internet and getting paid for it.

Be safe out there.

HAPPY MONDAY!!

Had another great weekend...wife and I have had a lot of those lately and next weekend will certainly continue the trend. We did a fair bit of road pedaling both days. Not really epic mileage, but great rides, great weather, and great company. Sunday's ride, which was a benefit for the local children's Hebrew camp, surprisingly produced one of the better event t-shirts that I've gotten.

Four day work week, followed by fun. Y'all be good.

Took yesterday off and had a fantastic day with wife and child. Woke up this morning to crap weather, wind, rain, etc. Kind of unusual for around here in the summer time. Should make work fun.

game of thrones....disappointment.

compared to the book?

 

[stevew]

compared to the book?

i my opinion....yes.

 

[jonKranked]

i my opinion....yes.

haven't read the book (yet). so i can't offer any comment, though I would imagine that you can't get everything out of a book into a series.

i look at it this way... a 10 hour miniseries treatment is worlds better than trying to cram everything into a 2, even 3 hour movie.

 

[Pesqueeb]

The books are amazing.

The books are amazing.

i can't decide between physical and digital copy (see e-reader thread)

Kick ass weekend. Beer in the hot hot sun on my giant deck Friday night, mountain biked with Borneo and a big group of Washingtonians Saturday and then Whiskey gingers and a dinner of freshly caught grilled salmon with friends Saturday night, another big mountain bike ride SUnday and then I kayaked and stand up paddled the Deschutes river Sunday evening. Summer is in full swing!!!!

Got some color done on my shoulder piece. I have another 1-2 sessions to finish this and my chest piece. It is rad to finally see this thing with color on it after almost 2 years of just line work.

 

[rockofullr]

Nice work! Now all you need is some muscles and you will look gnarly






jk don't worry I'm a flabby white guy too!

 

[Total Heckler]

Ha thanks. Pretty stoked on how it looks so far. Excited to get it finished now. Unfortunately my wallet is not.

 

[SkaredShtles]

Check it out! It's almost summer...

 

[jonKranked]

you get your planks out?

 

[Pesqueeb]

i can't decide between physical and digital copy (see e-reader thread)

I'd almost be willing to bet you can get the paper copies cheaper. I bought Game of Thrones for like 6 bucks new. Probably get it at a used book store for 2.

i think LOTR was done way better than this.

 

[jonKranked]

i think LOTR was done way better than this.

oh ok. i'm basically at the point where i take everything you say with a grain of null and void.

Not enough midgets staring deeply into each others eyes?
