#3. Details, Details.

I watched as the wind pushed the water against the dock. I couldn't even believe what was laying before me. I felt the way the breeze gently tugged and played with my hair and smelled the sweetness of the sea. The water was different here. It had color and vibrance. It was living and breathing. I felt proud to see how it thrived. I could even taste the difference of the way the salt hung on the air. It was tangy and sharp as it swirled between my teeth and into my smile. I loved how the spray splashed over the wall and onto my hands. They felt like a comforting drizzle, and as they dropped I listened to the sounds around me. I heard the soft thumps of the waves against the rock as well as murmurs and shouts of people. I wanted this scenery to stay ingrained into my memory forever. I had never seen a place where sea and sky were the same color. It was pollution free and full of energy. For that moment, with the wind tugging and the water whispering, it was the epitome of beauty .

#2. Edward Norton.

Sure, I like my fans. I'm sure they're all interesting people, but I also sincerely enjoy my privacy. Any celebrity will tell you that. I don't like to be in a lot of movies, not to be cocky or anything, but I would hate to become main stream Hollywood. I enjoy what I do as it is. If I couldn't take the New York subways every day because of a million fans running at me, I wouldn't know what to do. I love to act, but I love having a normal life. It keeps me sane. Especially with all those crazy roles that I play in movies. Ha, get it? I'm grateful to my fans and all who enjoy the movies I've been in. I take great pride in knowing that I've entertained people. I consider myself lucky. Life can be harsh on the famous a lot of the time, but I've managed to achieve a normal life while still being able to do what I love and be respected for it. It's great. I couldn't be in a better position than this.

#1. Deer. (Please do not reuse image)

(Once again, please do not use image)
To Republicans:
This is why we need gun control. Sooner or later the next step in evolution will take place, and who do you think will be there kickin' our asses? Not only would we see a dramatic decrease in number of deaths within our population, but scenarios such as this will be avoidable. Now, I may be "overdramatizing" with this image, but nonetheless, it does bring around a reasonable point to bring to the table. With certain gun control laws in place we could avoid a lot of harm done to our people. You are more likely to be shot by someone you know rather than a stranger. Gun control laws can help make this the past. I am not saying by any means that we should completely ban guns, oh no, they have played their part in history and a very important one, I am merely suggesting we put into effect better laws to protect all humans. And protection would be completey necessary if this image somehow came about.

To my Peers:
I am no fan of hunting. I never knew that hunting was such a huge part of the Minnesota culture before moving. I have nothing against hunters, I understand where you're all coming from (as I assume there may be hunters reading this). But one day, I wondered to myself, what if the tables were turned? So I grabbed my sketch pad and drew out this lucrid image from my mind. I found it fun to draw, and more fun to imagine such a thing. So yes, imagine if a deer got a hold of your rifle, and that this image was completely possible. What would you do? Is that crazy to think about, or what? I'd be terrified. A twisted game of the hunters become the hunted in an already twisted world.
