I'm still here folksI'm also going to finish posting from my back log of old shit. But, I've been meaning to finish that for months, so who knows? We're getting there though! Also definitely hoping that I can get my drawing skills to where I want them to be by the end of the year and I may actually start posting some things. I'm getting better all the time, but still not good enough to let it see the light of day, sorry folks!

Read this today, related to the death of Heath Ledger - how incredibly sad are these people?!
Thought of your pics when reading this...

Sydney - An evangelical US church plans to picket any memorials to Australian actor Heath Ledger, who died this week, because of his portrayal of a gay cowboy in the hit Brokeback Mountain, one of its leaders said on Thursday.
Shirley Phelps, of the Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas, told the Sydney radio station 2Day FM that they would also picket any attempt to honour Ledger, 28, at next month's Academy Awards ceremony.
Ledger was found dead in his New York apartment Tuesday. Police have said prescription medications were found in the residence.
"I'm going to stand outside of any public memorial service that he has here," Phelps told 2Day FM, referring to the United States.
"And then the other place I'm going to picket him is when they prop him up to worship his dead, rotting carcass further at the Oscars. I'll be right outside by the red carpet."

Ledger won widespread acclaim for his sensitive portrayal of a repressed homosexual cowboy role in the Oscar-winning Brokeback Mountain.
He had also starred in The Patriot and A Knight's Tale.
The Australian actor's family insisted his death was "accidental," while initial findings of an autopsy were inconclusive.
The Westboro Baptist Church is classified as a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Centre in the United States.
It regularly pickets the funerals of soldiers killed in Iraq, claiming the war is God's punishment for tolerating gays.

Just had a browse of your gallery - my word - powerful images.
The ugly side of blind-faith - those demonstrators (seems too kind a word for them) must have serious cognitive dissonance - how do they reconcile the inhumanity of what they are saying to the supposed words of their belief?
Excellent work - maybe one day we'll all mourn the loss of human life equally and at the same time celebrate the living with equal respect.
Thank you SO much for the compliments!
Is there a pretty side I missed of blind faith? Even if they are doing what is right they don't really believe anything themselves and it is a downright shame.
As much as I agree that that is true if a more typical Christian were saying these things, I've got to give them credit for being consistent. They really don't preach or believe in the love of God
Hopefully one day sooner than we think
