Apocalypse … Later
Written by Zach in News

Because the Apocalyptic Robot post is generating such enthusiasm, folks here want more time to spend on it. This means that the Apocalyptic Robot post will not be this Friday, but next Friday. If I gave you this news in person, I would probably feel a little shy about it, because after all, I did say “this” Friday. However, I lack embarrassment because in the words of Cicero, “A letter does not blush.”

Lest you should be annoyed too terribly, there will be a special mystery post this Friday. I’m not sure exactly what it will be, …

HELEN OF …
Written by Zach in Art Friday Post News

This post is somewhat sparser than the previous ones. The topic “Helen of …” has turned out to be harder and somwhat less inspiring than you might think. Also, Work, folks leaving, and other elements have conspired against us. The few entries that that made it are the Marine entries. These are the few and the proud. They’ve weathered hardships and now they’re here for your viewing enjoyoment.

Since I failed to inspire with this week’s topic, next week’s is Apocalyptic Robots. It’ll bring submissions in like rain.

G. Diggity

I recently sat down with G. Diggity and interviewed him about this strange turn of events.

Me: So Justin–
Justin: G. or G. Diggity.
Me: Right. Sorry. So, why the–
Justin: Say it.
Me: Pardon?
Justin: I want to hear you say it.
Me: G. Diggity?
Justin: [pumps his hands in the air in the "raise the roof" gesture] Yeeah.
Me: G. Diggity, you have effectively gone by Justin Gerard for the past 15 …

Aaron Greene
Written by Zach in News

Yesterday we said goodbye to Aaron Greene. He did IT, sound design, and a host of other things for us. Aaron decided the time was right to focus on his photography, then he up and left! The Jerk! That’s a joke. I mean, he did up and leave, but he’s not a jerk. We wish him the best, and we have utmost confidence that his business will succeed (because he happens to be really good). Also, we’ll probably kidnap him every now and again when we’re in a bind, or when we desire …
