In Case You Thought I May Be Crazy...

Hello...

I tell you what - no matter what your age - forget the pubs and bars - the place to pick up birds and chicks is KINKOS - or any 24 hour photocopy joint - students - they have money for school - they have brains - prospects on daddy money...

So ah yeah - I am here just getting my new 41 footer printed onto vellum - you look Irish - and you know - those are two of the most perfect boots I have ever seen - please tell me your name is not Mary and you are not a Catholic...

Fantastic - except - I remain a burnt out and un shaven 40 year old boat builder - trust me - walking a yard outside and hucking big metal boat thingees up ladders keeps you on top of the office boys who can do F'uck all and look the same...

So - if any of you mothers ever thought that I may be crazy - I enclose some old College crap that I found whilst rebuilding my computers - to prove you correct...

Great days - 20 damned years ago - was cooking bacon with a 37 year old with race horse legs while I was 25 - she wore me down - and thanks God for that...

Cheers madmen - all my work - if you have any use for same - well f'uck the royalties - just look me up and feed me Irish Whiskey if ever you get plonked in Vancouver - happy 2009...

Hell I am crazy - but I survived - and will survive...

See - http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=_iOnoZ...eature=related ...

Ah and a weezie - http://ca.youtube.com/watch?v=_Q7kUFS-0XQ ...

Sean, that's fantastic! I love that stuff!
Maybe the art was a right way for you to go, have you ever thought about it? No stress, no deadlines, no schedules (and probably no money too, but who cares...), just colors and creativity.
...

Hey, don't fall into depression now!

Great work, sincerely! Cheers!

Welded steel, GRP or what did you use for the re-build?

Hey Sean, I think you should set up a page on MySpace, call yourself a "visual artist", "designer", "painter" or whatever and upload those works in your gallery. You might even get contacted by people interested in buying your stuff.
If anything, MySpace is full of chicks who will freak out over artists of any kind.

Aren't we all. The one who thinks he is not crazy, is crazy just thinking so. And if you are the only one not crazy, must be a tough world being the only normal person out there.

I'd rather be crazy than stupid. Ok, that too, but it takes a lot for me to admit to it Honesty is a diffcult thing.

I wonder how Gnarls is doing ?
