Thanks for the good wishes everybody. GROG survive the first episode; now onto the next. The first director was a real sweety, but the next director is picky S.O.B. Him a nice enough guy, but him just change stuff too much and it's hard to meet deadlines and make quota when GROG have to redo everything all the time. GROG not mind changing stuff when it is a real improvement to the scene, but when it's changing stuff just to be changing stuff, that make GROG frustrated. GROG nearly quit working on Futurama because of him when he was an Asst. Director.

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.

Knock off that bitching & back to the animation mines! There's no crying in ANIMATION! :) :) :)
(do they make you wear the "Crusty the Clown" outfit when you are working at the new job, Grog?)

Time for a :drink:

Hooray! Congrats, Ernie. I hope it works out for you.

Thanks all. Got my first paycheck yesterday. Weird.

AWESOME Grog!

Good stuff!

congratulations Nice to see you this last weekend.

Congrats on the job sir! The daily grind is a bit of a drag, but getting a check for your time, and buying shiny, sparkly things with it is nice. So shiny.

Yay! Payday again today.

They finally got GROG a Mac to work on instead of the PC, so that make things a bit easier, but then they had GROG start using FLASH to do the storyboards and GROG never use Flash before, so more frustation during learning curve. Thankfully the Assistant director GROG share office with is Flash whiz, so him can answer all GROG' many questions and stop GROG before GROG throw computer out window.

Everything will be okay, Ernie, just try to not let it do this to you.

Congrats to my good friend Grog. So does this mean Grog Luau this year?

Damn Bear, thanks to you I just peed myself for the first time since I was a RugRat
That was F**King Funny!

Grog need make more like that!

Just watched the "Salvation Armed Forces" episode of Dan vs... dunno if Mr. Grog worked on that one, but pretty funny show :)

Congrats on the new gig Grog! I've "damaged" a few computers in frustration if it makes you feel better...
Cheers Mate!

Congrats on your new job Grogger!
Flash is a giant bitch of a learning curve.
Does the latest version finally work on the Iphone/Ipad?
I haven't upgraded yet.

There's a Dan Vs. Christmas episode on this weekend. There's a promotional clip clip here: http://www.hubworld.com/dan-vs/shows/dan-vs and you can check this site to find what channel the HUB network is on in your area. This episode was made before GROG start work on the show, but it's a new episode.

I wanna see your name in the credits Grogster

Not on this episode, but thanks.

When they do list your name in the credits, will it be Ernie or Ernest?

Good on you. Enjoy the art, creativity...amd income!!!!!!

The bad news is GROG is laid off.
The good news is GROG hopefully go back to work in May.
(Finished season 2 and about to start season 3.)

The good news is GROG love not having to work.
The bad news is GROG have to bust ass getting ceramics
finished that people are waiting patiently for, and get some stuff
done for the Tiki Mag release party.

King Bushy 33rd--GROG will probably be in credits as Ernie. GROG usually
have GROG' TV credits as Ernie and GROG' feature credits as Ernest.

Thanks for all the well-wishes everyone. After being unemployed for more than two years,
GROG' bank account much happier after 7 months of full-time work.

Grog now have to time take train to New Orleans...

GROG would love to, GROG just not sure that GROG would have the time.

Oh lordy...why do we even have to work!!! After all, we live in California...let's all stop working and apply for welfare. Then Grog can have classes on how to make mugs and use Flash...and we can all party and attend Grog's classes and pay Grog in rum and bottles of glaze. There...problem solved. :)

You should go to Hukilau !!

GROG it's good to hear from you, I just wish it was better news :( Seems like you are in a rough profession. We'll enjoy your time off and play in the mud before the next season rolls around.

fine....

Now we gotta worry about you, again?

Si.

Si.

See you at the Tiki Magazine party coming. Wendy
