Congrats,Ernie!

Whoohoo! I hear unemployment isn't all it's cracked up to be.

More ca$h for GROG but less fine art coming from the Grog Cave

ERNIE!
That's just awesome news.
Now tear up those unemployment stubs & commence to scribblin'!!!
big hug

Way to go Ernie, conga-rats!

Grog not on dole any more!

Would it be a good time to borrow $20?

Try not to refer to yourself in the third person at the new job
also I don't recommend wearing a loincloth to work.

Now get out there & draw!

Thanks everybody. GROG' animation chops are rusty. Going to have to get used to doing it all on the computer too.

Hey, you got the job! Awesome, Grog.

Perhaps practicing on a "Etch A Sketch" (an amazing new kind of technology type Thing-a-ma-Jig)
will help or perhaps an injection of Walt Disney's stem cells?

you can get a blank pad of paper & draw stick figures on each page till you get a flip cartoon
yes I know, no need to thank me, you are welcomed!

That about sums it up, john- O.

Congratulations Ernie! At least you didn't have to go to work at Geico!

Congrats on new job!
But will you still come around TC once in awhile to share your wit and wisdom with us? Hope the new job won't make ya too busy.

That is the best economy news all week!

Once GROG make guid artwork for evolved boss, GROG have it "made in the cave."

Congrats!!! Send me your address and I will mail you a new box of crayons to use at work.

Crayons would be a lot better than this fking PC shit they gave GROG to work on. Today was a crappy-assed day, as you can tell. The keys are different compared to the Mac, and spent half the time trying to figure out how to get the stupid machine to do what I want. Felt good about the drawings, but got screwed up SO many times by the stupid machine. Technology . FK IT!

GROG still doesn't know enough about Photoshop to to be as fast as GROG need to be for this damned job.

Be unemployed again next week probably.

Now gotta go to GROG' other job-- cleaning damned Ape mugs.

Hang in the GROG! Tomorrow will be a better day.

LOL Grog, I feel kinda the same way about Macs. I use a PC at home for graphic design and stuff, I am sure I probably don't know as much as you but I am willing to try and help if you need it. I know the difference between Macs and PC's is pretty confusing. Hope things go better for you tomorrow. :)

Was at work until midnight last night,and will probably have to work all weekend. May have to farm out the glazing on the Goin' Primitive mugs to get 'em finished in time if GROG have to work every weekend. Probably have to skip Tiki Oaisis to get stuff glazed and fired if GROG do it GROG self.

J

Is this a union job ?? Hopefully OT = $$$. :)

Congrats Ernie....and looks like ya still might have to embrace technology...you'll do great!!!

B

Sounds like you may need to do a barn rasing...

I thought you had a job and that it was to tease little lost tiki. So really, mugs, tease tease and your new one. I'll really miss seeing you it you don't make it to Oasis. Best Wishes for a speedy photoshop learning curve, Wendy

Congrats on the great gig! That sounds like an awesome job.
Sorry for the delay in posting.

Congrats BeerMan!!!

It's your turn to be a busy bee!

lol... :wink:

Great news! These guys said they could remind you how to draw.

'bout time.... slacker. Kidding. Congrats Ernie they are lucky to have you.

Grog,
I was unemployed for 14 months & it was SO devastating to my self esteem. But I am now working for such a fantabulous company! Feeling SO fulfilled & happy! Hope that you are feeling the same!

Ape mug news: GROG trying to make a silicone mask tonight to mask off the ape from the fez so GROG can apply underglaze on the greenware, so if it works, it should speed up the process. Wish GROG luck. Lots of kiln firing in august and September. Need a bigger kiln.
