well, Scott and I are off to eastern Wa tomorrow for a wedding and to visit friends and family…let’s all pray we make it back safely, for as we know, PEOPLE KEEP FUCKING DYING OVER THERE!
on the upside, for the three people I know who died this year, three I know were born. Twin boys I’m helping take care of, and early Thursday morning a friend of mine had a beautiful baby boy. I was there and got to see him when he was like 30 min. old. crazy. I also just found out that the three cousins of mine that are recently married are all expecting babies early next year.
you gotta wonder about the timing of three people dying and three being born all in one summer. the whole idea of a rhythm of life really starts to make sense when stuff like that goes down.
anyway, glad to be back! hope everyone’s doing well! Scoot and I will be back in portland in a couple weeks, and then you’ll never be able to get rid of us! haha!
I'm a 30-year-old 
yeah, but as long as scott’s not employed, at least the # of posts you guys can reasonably make is limited ;)

Why presume Scott’s employment status will limit the number of posts from him?As his 8/15 post demonstrates, he keeps himself busy with many projects … most of which end up being mentioned here.Why … he’s reworked 2 skins, drawn a new comic, and scanned a couple photographs … he’s engaged in any number of useful activities.Clearly he has his priorities in order.And, while these projects might seem trivial to the unenlightened. In reality they keep his mind fresh and his skills well honed.Quoting Ryan, who once said something profoundly appropriate to the situation … "Grrrrrr!"

Yes, keeping the mind sharp is always important. Almost as important as not being a bum!–Alex

Honed and sharpened as a crayon in the hands of a Kindergartener… :Þ (just kidding, Scott!)
