SOME PROOF FOR YOU: Sure, I’m always talking about “how busy I am” and all that shit, and never really show any of the stuff off on here. From time to time I get an email along the lines of, “Show us what you got, Mr. Big Talk.” Something like that.

Well readers, here’s some proof for you: I did an icon set for Mt. Hood’s Timberline. You can see the little buggers there on the photos on the home page.

Now, if you go here, you can play a fun little memory game with all of them. Hell yes. So cool. Real proud of these.

Thanks for believing in us, Mr. Reed! Much appreciated.

HERE’S ANOTHER COOL LAST NAME: “Zindel.” Thank you Rude Zindel. Thank you for sending in this old eraser in. This one right here: An old Weldon Roberts eraser from 1917.

FAR, FAR AWAY IN JAPAN: Jim O’Rourke isn’t coming home anytime soon. That’s fine and all. I’m more concerned with getting a copy of his new long player, The Visitor. Pretty excited for this one. Been waiting for some new solo stuff for a long time. Thank you, Mr. O’Rourke.
