Speaking of Asian food, if any of you have a massive lapse in judgment and decide to travel out here to Syracuse, you'll have to make a stop at Secret Garden.
It's a tiny little building (also housing an Asian market) in the middle of an oversized parking lot wedged in between a Sam's Club, a Geico agent, a Dunkin' Donuts, and a Tully's, but it has by far the best Korean food I've ever had (they also serve a few Japanese dishes there including thoroughly average but well-priced sushi). Back before he moved to the city, my friend Marty (to FHDM & CH: the guy from Rochester who moved to Brooklyn) used to go there often and avail ourselves of the $8 bottles of soju.

"Cervix" means "neck" in Latin. Also, more metaphorically, "severed head." I think he plans on murdering us all.

Just sent off an inquiring e-mail to one of my favorite creative professionals. Hopefully I'll get some kind of response, even if it's not on his web series.
I have been working as a professional illustrator since I graduated college three and a half years ago. While I have been more or less consistently working on projects for clients, it's never been particularly profitable, and I've always had to keep a "day job" in order to pay the bills.
However, due to chronic health issues, I was recently forced to leave my job as a tradesman, and given that nearly all of the jobs on my resume are in construction and factory work (which I can no longer perform), the likelihood of getting another "day job" in the near future are slim to none. As such, I've refocused my efforts entirely into making my art career into a full-time job.
In the several months since making the transition, my work and work habits have improved by leaps and bounds, and I've been making more money from creating art than I ever had before. However, my income is still not quite enough to cover all of my bills, and most of the money comes from selling original artwork and prints to friends and acquaintances, as opposed to creating illustrations for clients.
My worry is that my current income is unsustainable, and once my current buyers exhaust their funds and appetite for original artwork, I will have no more clients or buyers to pick up their slack. I'm torn between feeling like I could make a career out of being a fine artist and feeling like a charity case.
Based on your experience, how can I grow my business beyond my own circle of friends and turn it into a viable career option?
As an aside, I've been a big fan of yours since you came and spoke to the illustration and design departments at Syracuse University several years ago when I was a student. Since then I've been following your "Burning Questions" series and YouTube channel, and have found a lot of your advice to be very useful to me and my work. Regardless of whether or not you respond to my letter, I look forward to future advice & episodes.
Thank you for your time, and hope to hear from you in the future,
- David M. Mallon

Pffft... you'd only be able to decapitate us if it were on full auto, and I live in New York, so that's totally impossible.
You have no power here!

Dear gods, what kind of dreadful language are those wretched Britons speaking now?
So apparently my mother works with a lot of younger geeks and nerds, all of whom went to the Comic Con, in costumes. (How they all managed to get off at the same time I do not know,)
Judging by the pics that she forwarded to me, they do a pretty good job.
They were all Avengers, including 2 very good Iron man suits. :)

On the plus side, you all have a designated driver already assigned. There are PLENTY of places to have a drink at here in Savannah. Downtown has a lot of good places to eat as well as a few places that server local micro-brewery beer.The best part is that during Spring Break, all of the SCAD students will be gone.
Awww, I miss SCAD... I went to the Atlanta campus however.
Okay, I can't hold back any longer, what is the purpose of these consonants?
It has something to do with the current sportsball championship that will be commencing soon. As such, not a particularly kosher subject for this thread. For further edification I suggest Googling +'W' +Cubs

Tweeted the web-page, for what that's worth given that I only have just above 100 followers.
Freehold DM, did you see one of these at the New York Comic Con?
no, but I wasn't on that side of the dealers room. I know where that was, though.

my dad had a slight stroke this morning and is in the hospital now, but it looks like no damage done and everything seems to be ok :-/

I went to the Savannah campus. I quite liked the city, and the classes weren't half bad, but the other students made me want to jump off the nearest bridge I could find. Plus, they pretty much forced you to buy everything at the student store, then jacked up the prices to ridiculous levels. I remember spending almost $15 for a single 16"x24" sheet of paper. The final straw was when they lost their accreditation (I think they got it back recently, but it was gone for at least a few years). By the time I finally transferred, I was dead broke and pissed off.

with respect to college, I really wish I knew then what I knew now. So many illegal activities.
