Watchmen Poster

Found this poster, been writing about Watchmen a lot over at Your Comic Relief. Not one, but two posts in the past two days. The first post is what I found positive about it, and the second is what others found to be negative about it. I am particularly proud of the second post, and I think you should check it out. Possibly another one tomorrow with some art/pictures, and then a fourth in the future maybe there or here about the Watchmen game for the 360.

Walking the Dog

So, in my unemployment, I've taken up doing odd jobs. Currently I find myself as a nanny replacement until the neighbors find a new one. It's a fairly stress free job, I walk the dog at 10-11, and again at 1-2, run errands (dry cleaning, grocery shopping), and pick kids up from school. Now, the dog next door is a pretty relaxed dog, maybe like a schnouzer/poodle or something, I'm not quite sure, but it's pretty mellow. It doesn't chase or bark at other dogs, it doesn't try and dig holes, it doesn't try and escape during walks, etc... I mean, it will go after a squirrel, but only if it's within like 5 yards or so. However, today, when I was walking him, we passed a mail truck (mail car? we passed the postman at any rate), and this dog went as close to berserk I've ever seen it. It struck me, all those times I watched cartoons and the dogs went after the mailmen, I just figured it was a dog-stereotype. Maybe there's some truth to it.

Initial Post

First off, hello cyberspace. My name is Tim H, and this is my blog. I run a small assortment of blogs, the most successful of which is Your Comic Relief, however unfortunately I left it alone for a month due to stress, and am now attempting to recapture my audience, which, while difficult, is actually easier than the first time. Similar to going to the gym, something else I haven't done in a long time; it is easier to regain muscle mass than to gain it the first time. I am also playing around with Hub Pages, where I post about science, but I'm fairly sure that's just a closed community, and because many of the posters there are there to put up ads and earn money, I don't feel anyone was actually reading the posts to really enjoy them, although I will continue for a bit, to see what happens. I also get the feeling over there that nobody from outside the Hub Pages community is viewing them, or even if they are able to. A similar thing can be said for the first blog I ran, over at Gamespot. Except there nobody wants to read what anyone else has to say, and it seems to be mostly a bunch of early/pre-teens who have nothing better to do than flame message board. As you can see, I have a few, very focused projects going on, but my problem is I have a very wide range of interests. Hence this one was born. I plan to use this to rant, link, promote my better work, and basically do what I will with.
