I’m more of an SG guy. I have a bunch of those.

I have a love/hate relationship with Gibson Les Pauls. They’re too damn heavy (9-10lbs) I’ve played dozens of LPs over the years, but these are the only 3 I’ve ever loved enough to buy. All 3 are from 2007, all versions of the Classic 60s model, and all are very light! 8lbs!

Yer damn right we did!

BTW, if you've never heard her, Lzzy Hale's voice is sublime. Thunderous, cutting, melodic, heart-wrenching, and sexy as fuck. What a gift to rock and roll is Lzzy. Check out the live Halestorm album for proof. \m/ \m/

Lovely day. Dealing with a colossal headache today. Swallowed some Excedrin Migraine, and I'm working until I can't. Listening to Halestorm in the studio. Save me, Lzzy Hale. You're my only hope.

We had a college student die during the blizzard here in RI—because the power was out, he attempted to recharge his phone in his car without first clearing snow away from the exhaust pipe. Poor kid died of carbon monoxide poisoning. Please be extra careful during storms, folks.

RIP, Robert Carradine. Very sad news. As a kid, I LOVED Revenge of the Nerds, and have followed his work ever since. #MentalHealthAwareness

Lovely day. Status update post blizzard: The good news: I am off generator power since electricity was restored late last night. The bad news: There is 30" of snow in my driveway, and a downed tree. So I'm stuck here until my plow guy & his crew can make it here with chainsaws.

Lovely day. Two feet of snow (so far), 50+mph winds, a tree down in my driveway. Running on generator power.

Hope your day is going better than mine.

Believe it or not, that's my patio table...

Update on Project BNibShouts Regular: Class kerning is done, but the font does not have its basic kerning finished yet (as you can see with some wonky letter pairs below.) In any case, here' the very first look at the glyphs displayed together in sentences.

Lovely day. Lettering AMERICAN CAPER #8 and listening to Rage Against the Machine, Prophets of Rage, and Public Enemy in the studio. \m/ \m/

Yer damn right we did! Wahooo!

Lovely day. Here's someone realizing they've just made a bad decision. (From issue 1 of an unannounced DH project)

First unhappy customer of the day.

For those of you playing along at home, here's the first one:

Right? He's so good. I got to meet him and tell him to his face how great he is a few years ago.

I found another t-shirt that perfectly sums up my personality.

Lovely day. I'm trying to wrap up the back half of issue 1 of an unannounced Dark Horse project, but I keep getting other "quickie" tasks dropped on me that are the priority of a white-hot dying star. Listening to Mad Season in the studio. Man, I wish those guys had done more.

All the glyph cells are finished for Project BNibShouts Regular...all 666 of them! MWAHAHAH! Six versions of each letter, 3 of each number and three of . ! ? Next up: kerning.

Lovely day. Working a short holiday schedule today. Listening to the new Megadeth album in the studio, chugging water, and jumping back and forth between lettering and working on Project BNibShouts regular.
