   New Look for 06.

Well, here we are again, new year and all. I decided to give the site a new look. I do hope you all like it. I was up 'til midnight finishing the new BG for this place. *Yawn* I'll live. Anyway, I think I fixed the problem with the my pics, so they should be up sometime today. *crosses fingers* Today is the first day that all of the students are back and I'm being bombarded with questions. In case some of you don't know, I work at a law school in Southern California. Dealing with college students is fine, however, dealing with law students is completely different. These fine upstanding citizens (note sarcasm) are far more demanding and can be very ungreatful. Alas, I tread on. Fortunately, There are alot of really nice students that are genuinely nice. Here's to yet another semester of blood, sweat, and jeers! Tally-ho!!!

   Freaking delays!

Sweel freakin biscuits! My Drawings aren't loading up and it's frustrating the Hell out o'me. For some reason, they're not coming through. I'll work on 'em over the week end and post 'em ASAP! Sorry for the delays, everyone. Have a great weekend!

   Hit and Miss.

I gotta tell you guys, it's been crazy around work this week. I have to get everything tuned up and ready to go before the students and faculty show up on Monday. I've been running crazy so that's why I haven't been posting regularly. After this next week, things should be back to normal. In other news, I have some old super hero drawing I'd like to post. I'd like to hear your opinions. They're just basic line art drawings I did when I was trying to break into the Comic book Industry. I had to give the "powers that were" a taste of what I could do. All of the drawings are 100% original. I hate plagerism, and don't condone it. I'm purely Old School when it comes to that. I know a lot of you can understand. So please enjoy and again, feel free to comment. Late.

Just returned from a long winters sleep.

Good lord, has it been a week already?! I was just getting relaxed. Oh well, guess it's time to face the music of a whiring grind stone. Well it's great to be back in the O again. I hope you all had a great holiday break. I sure did. Although I'm in mourning for my freedom and care-free days of do-nothingness, I breathe a gentle sigh of relief knowing that I'm back amongst good friends. I await the challenges that are to come with vigor and poise in the hopes that I can pass them off to some unsuspecting but more than willing person. Sucks to be them. I thought maybe I would post during the break, but I couldn't tear myself away from sleeping, gaming, and scoping out new anime. Especially after recieving "Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory" box set and the new (to me) "Gundam v. Z Gundam" game. I truly believed at one point that my eyes would catch fire. How do you explain a cart full of burn ointment and bandages to an unsupecting grocery clerk and a curious group of shoppers? Not easily, I'm afraid. None the less I march on and hope to continue to offer fine upstanding features and fillers to an otherwise unimpressed troop of anime fans such as yourselves. Here's to a new year! Now, on with the show.

The Wait is Finally Over.

Oh joy of joys! Christmas break is finally here. I'm sure most of you are just getting started with yours. Ah yes, a week off to do nothing but lounge around and work on drawings. Oh and of course, whatch anime! I got to see a few more eps of the Bebop. Man, I love that anime. It's just so well done. An the music is incredible. I've also been whatching some Love Hina. Poor Keita-san. That Naru IS a violent young lady. I especially got a kick out of the way she cracked him up side the noodle when they first met. Priceless. Though, ya gotta give him credit, he stuck to it. Glutton for punishment, I guess. I'll be adding some writings to my site a little later today. These are originals and will probably flow from my brain to my keyboard. I like to do that every once in a while. Kinda keeps things in a fresh new perspective. I love to draw and I love to write. Both of which I don't get to do that often. So, please amuse me or yourselves and enjoy these little stories, thought and memoirs from a loaded pen. Please feel free to comment on them; I always like to here back from the reader, good, bad, or indifferent. I might not be posting a whole lot during the break, but I'll try. Do enjoy your Christmas and New Years. They come but once a year, and go so quickly. Cherish the time with family and friends. Reaquaint yourself with the old traditions as you make new ones. Be at well and may all your grandest wishes be fulfilled through out the year to come. I am Grifter99. I wish you all peace, prosperity and tidings of great joy. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Thought I'd post this again. This was my first successful attempt at a WP. It seems more appropriate for the season.

What a Time!

This past weekend , I celebrated my bday! It was filled with much food and great friends. The highlight was when I recieved the Cowboy Bebop Perfect Sessions as one of my gifts. I whached the first 4 eps. as soon as I got home. Great stuff. I decided to take Monday off to extend my bday and enjoy some R&R before the brunt of the holidays go into full effect. Oh, and thanks to all my O friends for the great Christmas greetings! Yours are on the way. This week is my last week of work. I get the week after Christmas off. The best thing is I get it paid too. Yee- haw! That never sucks. I'm looking forward to a nice restful Christmas break. I'll be around this week, but I'm not sure about next week, though. I'll check in periodically to check messages and hopefully post some quickies. Here's to a fast week!
