Since I've made my decision on continuing on in this biz, (see the other thread).... I figured, I may as well do this at least once before checking out.

Posting:

if anything I've posted has helped, inspired, or generally given you a positive feel....

if anything I've posted has rubbed you the wrong way, offended you, bored you, irritated or pissed you off..... too fucking bad. Get over it.

Pics:

Any pics I've posted are real. I may have added a logo or something to some of them, but any pics I've posted are 100% genuine.

I like my life.
If that makes you fell happy for me... thank you.
If that does the opposite... too bad.

I love my dogs. I enjoy my days. I love where I live and how I live and I wouldn't trade with any of you for any price.

I'm not Bill Gates.
But I'm not hurting either.
Can I buy China? No. Can I buy a new vehicle tomorrow without worrying about payments? Yes. I don't need the world. I only need enough to make me comfortable. And that's what I have.

Am I really dumping my business for good? Yes. I'm done.

Am I doing mainstream work? Yes. But it's completely behind the scenes and I don't expect to ever be actively looking for work. So don't ask.

Who from GFY do I really hate?
Actually no one. In truth... I only really care about the well-being of a half dozen people from this business..... and no, no names. The rest of you.... sorry, but I don't give you any thought once I get up from this chair.

Am I drinking a rum & coke right now? Yes.

Do I do drugs? No.
Am I against drugs? Yes.
Do I care if YOU do drugs? No.

What has this whole last 4 years on GFY and the Amputate nick been all about?

It was a way out of working manually for a living. It went to places I never expected, and lasted shorter than I expected. But I also got far more out of it than I ever expected.

Adult.com: They were very good to me.
Jason & Alex: They were even better.

any questions? I got about an hour. And then this is done forever.

Has a coconut ever fallen out of a tree and knocked you on your head?

It's the other way around. Amp's head is now in a coconut tree.

Even though we've never met, I count you as one of the best designers to have graced this business. Good luck to you in the future.
