As badly as I wanted to pick "Comedian Grossman", I went for you. Good luck.

I feel corrupt voting when I've never even been to Houston.

ETA: Caleb can kiss my ass.

I voted though tell whoever is running this thing that they need to look into some real online voting tools, say from a company like Second Street perhaps.

Perhaps Renell can cover the cost of the better polls with an even larger ad?

I figured one or two people would get the meta reference. (Though it's also true -- whatever they're using for this site sucks.)

Can't you at least get with the times and use CompuServe as your avatar, MMS Marketing?

Can't figure out how to write in Ali Siddiq. 2 Horse race, with TT in second. Get those votes in.

If you have time today, please vote. Its open until November 4th, and I could use the support. I can't see the votes anymore but I think I'm still behind Caleb

Thank you to all of you that voted, i finished second by what i consider to be a respectably small number of votes. It was fun while it lasted.

Awhile back I applied for an annual New Western Talent exhibit which I was fairly confident I'd get juried in, and then ended up getting Best in Show. I've known this for a week and am still processing it. Some really amazing work in there that makes my imposter syndrome kick in pretty hard. Pretty stoked though!

Nice one. How did you do it? Hard to tell on internet. A drawing or carving?

I'm not positive, but atleast for the bigger one it looks to me like he used watercolor, water-based metallics, and ink on 300 lb cold-pressed watercolor paper.

This puts my National Art Honor Society Gold-Key winning piece “Close-Up of Graphing Calculator and Random Crosshatches” to shame. Congrats.

The ones on wood are still painted w/ watercolor. There's a treatment I use so the wood doesn't suck up all the pigment.

Smart. Leaves more pigment for you to suck up.

Yeah, that was some cool shit. I'm about this close from deleting Facebook, but stuff like that is the only reason I keep it around.

Sweet. Thanks guys. I don't really like engaging on FB either so no worries. Fun project and a cool venue to check out if you're ever in Denver. Looks like they're just now populating their concert schedule but I imagine they'll get some good acts.
