DOWNLOAD! or Watch on Yahoo! Video or Watch on YouTube!	August 30, 2009 Seeing as though my old video from 2007 "Cat Gun" has been getting a lot of attention on Yahoo! Video lately (compared to my other videos) and was on their front page, I figured I'd post it on my front page as well. "Cat Gun" has gotten the most views of my videos since my old YouTube account was suspended in 2007. It figures, considering it's the only video I'm not actually in. But anyway, congratulations to Ben and Felix on their very, very minor stardom. I'd like to make a Cat Gun t-shirt but I doubt I will. 3 new live-action videos may be coming pretty soon. One from my trip to Chicago and two other original short films I have ideas for.

DOWNLOAD! or Watch on YouTube!	August 16, 2009 The final episode of The Wish Fish Family is finally available. You can download Episode 3 - "Mon frère le poisson-chat" in the cartoons section.

DOWNLOAD!	July 31, 2009 Change of plans. Since my new cartoon isn't being shown at Webster University until September I've decided to release it early. So there you have it. Click here to download my latest cartoon "Catfishing" and give me feedback if you want. After you watch the cartoon, take a look behind-the-scenes with storyboards, sketches, and a little rant about why there will be no more cartoons of Felix.

	May 07, 2009 Ugh... Fucking May already... what the fuck... Did I drink the time away?... No more fucking vodka... I got to meet with Disney animator/movie director Joe Haidar again this weekend while he was in town. We sat around and he gave me some tips on character design. So I've posted just a few of his many drawings. He just finished working on Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel and his own award-winning film Animated American is being showcased in numerous film festivals. I got to see it today and it is a cool mixture of live-action and traditional animation, like *Who Framed Roger Rabbit. Does anyone even come here anymore? I don't blame you if you don't. I haven't made a decent cartoon in two years. Could this be the death of FARToons?* It is quite possible. Stay tuned to find out.

	February 06, 2009 I apologize for any spyware that is detected on this web site. I honestly have no idea where it's coming from. We're switching servers so hopefully that will take care of it. I added a search engine to the site incase you can't find something you're looking for. So use it, and click some fucking ads while you're at it. They're interesting. You never know what you'll find. Maybe you'll find yourself making me a penny or dime. But not much more than that. There are some new things around the web site but nothing special. So I'll let you browse around and find them on your own. There should be a new cartoon sometime this year but I'm not making any promises. I'm trying to work on a *Senioritis* project for my college senior overview, but it's not getting off to a good start. There should also be a short cartoon entitled *The Early Bird Gets the Cat* within the next few months.

DOWNLOAD!	May 10, 2008 Due to the recent controversy over The Wish Fish Family I have edited together a politically correct version of the cartoon for our viewers without a sense of humor. I hope you enjoy! Just one stupid ass paper left before I am finished with school... for a week. Then I have to return for summer classes. Is that a bunch of bullshit or what?

DOWNLOAD!	May 05, 2008 Kinematifest turned out to be one of the most awkward moments of my life with the screening of The Wish Fish Family, accompanied by total shock and disgust. People started out laughing but once the racist jokes kicked in "BAM!" I'm the most hated man in America. I am sure to get gangbanged or shot sometime this week, but it was worth it just to not be censored, which I am very grateful for. Sure it sucks that I pissed off some fellow students and an instructor who now think I'm a total bigot, but alas, isn't that what this now AWARD-WINNING web site is all about? Pissing people off. Download my acceptance speech to see just how awkward it really was.

	April 13, 2008 I was fortunate enough to meet Disney animator Joe Haidar this weekend who was doing a workshop at Webster University. In all honestly he is like the coolest guy I've ever met. He has worked on the movies "Who Framed Roger Rabbit", "Beauty & the Beast", "Aladdin", "Pocahontas", "Hercules", "Home on the Range", "Looney Tunes: Back in Action", "Enchanted", and more. He was cool enough to help me with the design of some of my own characters for *Senioritis. Check out some of his critiques of the drawings I have done. His are way better than mine, reminding me of how much improvement I really need. Hopefully I will be able to take what he taught me to improve my drawing skills. If not, I am fucked. So I'd like to thank Joe again, even though he most likely won't be reading this. He is supposed to be returning to St. Louis in May for the Kinematifest Animation Festival*. So if you're in the area be sure to go!

	April 03, 2008 It has been confirmed we will be at The 3rd Annual Cape Girardeau Comic Con on Sunday, April 27th. We'll be selling Series 1, Series 2, and the newly released Series 3 Ostrich, Hippo & Jesus on Grass comic books. We'll also be selling OH&J on Grass: Tha Moovy, OH&J Trading Cards, and the all-new Wish Fish Family DVD with a special behind-the-scenes look. And there will be other people there that you may actually care about, like the original Michael Myers from "Halloween", comic book artist Brian Hurtt, the creator of "The Ghost Rider" Gary Friedrich, Star Trek actor Bill Blair, and more. I've actually never heard of any of those people except for Michael Myers, but hopefully you have. Visit their web site to find out more. I've been nominated for another Webbie Award this year for my Senioritis pilot script "Basketball Blues". I doubt I'll win but stranger things have happened. If I do win I guess it means it is at least award-worthy, which would be good considering it is what I want to make a TV series one day. If I win I'll put my speech online like last year.
