Jay

Epic

Priceless...


Jay

Huh?

I thought it was cute. ^_^

(The first time Catwoman kissed Batman, and he was rather surprised...)

Jay

...

Ever have one of those days where you just wanted to have root-beer for breakfast and then go back to bed?



Jay

Grin of the Week

I actually, truly, seriously thought that Batman never smiles. Really, I always thought he was supposed to be ultra grim and gloomy. Humm. I guess it is a more recent thing. :)

(Anyhow, this is like from the early 40s, so that's why his head is so big. :} )

Jay

Grin of the Week

Robin, from one of the early early issues of Batman. That kid sure grins a lot, especially when he's creaming somebody...

Jay

Grin of the Week

Peter Parker, from an early issue of "The Amazing Spider-man." :)


Have a nice week!

Jay

Grin of the Week

Yeah, another Thor grin of the week. This one is from "Ultimate Thor."


Jay

^_^

I just thought this was the cutest thing. :}




Jay

Grin of the Week

Peter Parker, from one of the early issues of "The Amazing Spider-man."


Have a nice week.

Jay

:)

Happy Thanksgiving!

Jay

Grin of the Week

Like I promised, it's not Thor.

It's Pepper Potts from "Iron Man" (one of my favorite movies. :D )



Have a great week. :)

Jay

.......

"Prep time: 25 Minutes"

Who ever wrote that, really hadn't taken into account the fact that there might be a kitten running rampant on a rampage through the house....just saying. :}


(It took a little over an hour.)


Jay

...

XD

Found this via Google Images while I was looking up various types of knives. It was just too funny.

Jay

It is really, really sad to see a picture and think "Who is that ugly girl dancing with my friend..." and then realize that it's you.... 8|


Jay

Random...

XD

Jay

XD

This....made my day.






Jay

...

So...

I knew 34 of the "100 Things You Didn't Know About Lord of the Rings." There were also more things that I was aware of to some point but not enough to claim that I know them.

So, I was kinda proud. :)


Jay

It's comming...

I literately almost screamed when I looked over at my calender and saw that Thanksgiving is only a week and a day away....


Jay

Grin of the Week

Next grin won't be Thor...I promise.

This is the look he got on his pretty face right before creaming a Frost Giant (The one you you see behind him ). XD


(Sorry it's late. :} )

Jay

Cool Guys.....

OK, so I have noticed that cool guys never do look at explosions, but I never knew anyone wrote a song about it.



XD

Jay

...

We are free because of the brave

Jay

Grin of the Week

Yup, its Thor again, grown up this time. (Age-wise, that is; he is still a bit immature. :) )



And for the record, I think that is the all-time coolest helmet in helmet history. And he only wears it once in the whole movie. >: {


Jay

Jay

Grin of the Week

Young Thor, from the beginning of "Thor." He's a seriously cute kid. :)



(It's not so obvious out of context, but he is smiling.)

Have a great week!

Jay

:)

So...yeah, it wasn't very grown up of me to be trying on the Spider-man mask in the toys aisle at Wal-Mart...

*thwip*

Jay

The Dark Knight

I don't normally post my art on JGO, but this picture was exceptional, see, I really, really out did myself. So I figured I would share this one.

(It's based on a pic from a t-shirt: I'm not that good enough yet to come up with something this good on my own)


Jay

Self Portrait

(Me)

Many great artists have a self portrait of some kind or another, and, well, I'm not great, but I figured I should have a self portrait...of some kind.

I really don't know how I came up with this idea, but it seemed like the best way to portray me: I drew three figures: an Elvish warrior (The LoTR fan, who does have the heart of a struggling young warrior), a superhero (The Marvel fan, who believes in justice and always doing what's right, no matter the cost) and a nerd (The LoTR fan and the Marvel fan, and the all around OK kid, who is an introvert artist).

It's a simple pic; I could have made it a lot cooler, if I'd wanted to. But I didn't want too, I wanted it plain and simple, like me.

(For the record, the one on the far right is how I actually dress)

(The pic looks better in person)

Jay

Grin of the Week

I'll do a real grin next week, I promise.

Jay

Yeah...

So I was less than thrilled about finding a cockroach in the dishwasher....




Jay

Grin of the Week

A shot from "The Avenger" trailer.

I think he's laughing at Captain America and Iron Man...



Jay

Quote of the Day

"Marry, sir, they have committed false report; moreover, they have spoken untruths; secondarily,
they are slanders; sixth and lastly, they have belied a lady; thirdly, they have verified unjust things; and, to conclude, they are lying knaves. " (Dogberry, Much Ado About Nothing.)

Best. Line. Ever.

Well, one of them.

Jay

...

"I'm working on a picture...it's kinda a self-portrait."

"Really? Of who?"



Jay

Quote of the Day

"What a pretty thing man is when he goes in his doublet and hoes and leaves off his wit!"

~Don Pedro, Much Ado About Nothing.


I just thought this was kinda awesome. XD


Jay

Grin of the Week

Nick Fury, director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Yes, I think he is awesome.


Jay

....

Eating cereal with glasses on is much easier the second time....



Jay

White and Nerdy

It' official. ...Like, more official than before. So, we all knew I was a nerd, but now, now I actually have glasses. It's official.

Yes, I wear superhero T-Shirts, I love Spider-Man, all of my favorite movies (Save LoTR) are by Marvel, I really don't do well in social environments, I actually enjoy reading Shakespeare, all three of my friends are nerds/geeks (So, I do have more than three....almost.), and I've seen almost every episode of 'Star Trek: The Next Generation,'. The glasses are just the icing on the cake.


You don't have to worry about me, I'm not going blind or anything; I'm just a wee but farsighted, and yes, an official nerd.



Jay

Quote of the Day

"You don't find the Fantastic Four in a sewer. Or the Avengers. NEVER have I seen the Avengers in a sewer."

~Spider-Man (He was crawling through a sewer at the time...)



Jay

Epic

So, uh, for the record, this is the most epic thing I've seen all day.

Nick Fury, Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. blasting away at something. It just makes me happy. XD



(It's one of the first pictures from The Avengers)

Jay

When X-Men meets Thor

So, unless you've seen both "X-Men: First Class" and "Thor," you won't get pic.

I've seen them, and I love it. XD

It's always sad waking up to find that one's stuffed animal has been wedged between the bed and wall...

(He was OK, though. :} )

Jay

The best part about being a crime fighter

I thought this was pretty great. :)

Jay

Grin of the Week

I have this piece of paper that I use whenever I'm drawing. I put it behind whatever piece of paper I'm drawing on, so if my markers go off the page, they get on it and not on something important. I use it to see what color a marker is, or how two colors work together, or to scribble on if my pen isn't working. I use it for all kinds of things. It's covered with lots of little faces, and this is one of my favorites. 8)




Have a great week,

Jay

Grin of the Week

Jay

...

Food-wise, I have experienced few things more unpleasantly weird than eating a deviled egg after burning my tongue....



Jay

You Know its Bad When...

You're lying in bed playing "Rock Paper Scissors" with yourself.

I couldn't sleep, I was bored...


Jay

Quote of the Day

"The bigger they are, the more pieces they make."

~Wolverine.


:D

Jay

Grin of the Week

I couldn't resist.



Have a week as epic as this grin...well, try to.

;D

Jay

Grin of the Week

More like "Twisted Little Smirk of the Week."

Loki, from the movie "Thor." (Which comes out of DVD, tomorrow, FYI.) I find it mildly ironic that they have Loki smiling on the poster, as he actually smiles like twice in the whole movie.

Tom Hiddleston seriously deserves at least an Oscar nomination for his role as Loki.



Jay

They are Coming...

I didn't think much of them at first, I mean, I'd seen the little creeps my entire life. It wasn't until recently, when they started getting more pesky, that I gave them a great deal of consideration.

That's when I made a shocking discovery; these little brown flying things that go under the unassuming name of "pantry moths" are NOT what we were thinking they were. Few know of this and even fewer have come out and told anyone. I am here to enlighten you.

The truth is this: never before has our world witnessed so great a feat of intergalactic espionage.

Yes, that's the truth. Now you may think "Oh! We should try to talk to them! 8D" Do not, I repeat do NOT act friendly towards them. They are harmless, but if they are, in fact, Skrullspies, we should kill as many as possible! I already have, and that was before I even knew what they were up to. Heed The Call!!! Buy those little sticky triangle traps, smash them with a fly swatter, use your bare hands!!! I do. :}

This is not a threat to be taken lightly! Take initiative! They must be stopped! We must annihilate the "pantry moths"!!!

This is the time to come to the aid of your fellow man, stop the "pantry moths"!

Thank you for your time.

Jay

The Fish

At one point in the official music video for the Green Day song "21 Guns" a fish tank gets shot and the water starts pouring out. Sad right? Well, a bit later fight near the end of the song, you see the fish. All the water is out of his tank, but he managed to survive by going into a gar that is in the tank, still filled with water.

Lots of times, I feel like that fish.



Jay

...

Eight days 'til 'Thor' come out....



Jay

Grin of the Week

:)

Have a good one.

Jay

So True...

Jay

Note

246 days until "The Avengers" is in the theaters!!!


XD XD XD I AM SO EXCITED!!!!


Jay

Anticipation

Fourteen days until 'Thor' comes out on DVDFourteen days until 'Thor' comes out on DVDFourteen days until 'Thor' comes out on DVDFourteen days until 'Thor' comes out on DVD

XD XD XD I am SOOO looking forward to it!!!!



Jay

Grin of the Week

My dear epic wonderful thoughtful mother recently got a great big "Peanuts" book for me. I adore "Peanuts" with all my heart.

So for this weeks Monday Grin, I decided to do Linus, who is, in fact, my all-time favorite cartoon character.


:)

Jay

Random Remark

I love doing push-ups and then the next day feeling like I just barely survived a bar fight. XD

It was actually only cool until I realized that I hurt to much to dance. :/ I seriously hate it when I can't dance.


Jay

Fireflies

This is my favorite song. Sure, I have lots of favorite songs, but I am pretty sure this is my favorite favorite songs.




Two of some of my most favorite memories involve this song. Once, a great friend of mine and I danced to it. We both knew all the lyrics and were singing it the entire time. XD Another time, I took the computer outside and played this song and watched the fireflies. The music and the little bugs went perfectly together. It was like the fireflies were dancing to it. The only word that can describe it is magical.

Jay

Quote/"Tip" of the Day

"When in doubt, blow it up."

Hawkeye, from The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes.

I told you he was awesome. XD

Jay

Relativity

Spiders are always less scary when they are on the person next to you.

"AH! AHH! There is a spider on me!!!!!!!"

"Big deal. Flick it off."

Turn the tables.

"AHHAHH! Now there is a spider on meeeee!!!''

"*snicker.*"


Jay

Scary...

Scary is: The Spider on the ceiling that looks like he's losing his grip.



Jay

I've not forgotten you, JGO

OK, so, I know I've been really neglecting JGO a lot lately, and I apologize. I mean, all I've been doing lately is Grins of the Week, i.e, only the essentials.

As of this moment, I am going to try and be a bit better about posting more stuff, 'cause, really I do love this blog.

I've been spending a great deal of my time drawing, and I recently got a DeviantArt account and have been spending gabbodles of time there (My love for art outweighed my love for cool/funny stuff.) But I am seriously going to try to save a little of my time for posting good ones. :)

See 'ya,

Jay

Grin of the Week

This weeks grin is Hawkeye, from 'The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes.'

That was an awesome TV show. Kae and I just finished it yesterday. I think Hawkeye was our favorite character. I mean, all the characters were absolutely AWESOME, but Hawkeye had all the best lines. And the dude fights with a bow and arrows!!!



Have a great week!

Jay

...

It is always interesting to see how long one can go without thoroughly making ones bed.

Jay

Grin of the Week

Lake Superior is one of the single most awesome places I have ever been.

While we were there last month, I made this little face on the sand.

: )


Jay

Kirk...

It's weird, form this angle, they actually look a lot alike...

Jay

Nightcrawler

Nightcrawler is awesome. Well, I think so, anyway. :D

Jay

I'd say something Awesome...

..but some days, you just don't have anything awesome to say.



Jay

Grin of the Week

While on the shore of Lake Michigan, I drew this little face. I thought it would make a cute grin of the week. ^_^





Jay

Captain America

The other day, we went and saw "Captain America: The First Avenger."


THAT WAS AWESOME!!!

It didn't have quite the same raw epicness that "Thor" did, but it was way more interesting. I loved it. They did a perfect job. Absolutely perfect. The casting was superb. At first I was a bit skeptical about Chris Evens playing The Captain. I mean, I'll I'd seen him do was Johnny Storm in the Fantastic Four. But he was simply wonderful as Captain America. Hugo Weaving as Red Scull was a stroke of sheer brilliance. Bucky was wonderful, but I do believe I would have preferred him being a bit more like he was in the comics (A teenager). Peggy Carter was great. It would have been very easy for them to have made her annoying, but she wasn't. Not in the least.

The action was epic. Like seriously epic. Watching gaboodles of HYDRA guys getting creamed with a shied is seriously awesome. Aw man. Captain America is like the only guy in the world with a motorcycle that can blow up tanks. That part was so cool.

Oh, it was such an awesome movie. The ending was awesome. I'd elaborate, but then I would spoil it. It definitely is one of my favorite movies, now.


Jay

U.P.

I am in love with the Upper Peninsula, Michigan. Hopelessly. Deeply. Truly. In love.

We spent the last week of July up there, it was one of the most awesome weeks ever. I mean, the fact that we were up there with amazing family was a huge part of it. But the U. P. is one of the absolute neatest places I've ever been. The weather, the landscape, the white birches, the cool places, the great lakes, it was all really cool.

"We drank the Great Lakes
Like cold lemonade,
And both got stomach-aches
Sprawled out in the shade.."

I thought of these lyrics from "Hot Air Balloon" several times. Ya' know why?

Haha, yeah. We drank the Great Lakes!!!

Well, kinda.

We drank from Lake Superior. And waded in Lake Superior and got rocks form Lake Superior and swam in Lake Superior and almost froze to death in Lake Superior.

(Lake Superior)

It was awesome. Really, really awesome. I had never really given Lake Superior much thought, but it was one of the single most awesome things I've ever seen. It was so...so....so BIG. You know, few things can compare to standing in this giant body of water and thinking to yourself, wow, at the other side of all this water is Canada. It was awe-inspiring.

Lake Michigan was really neat, too. Superior was awesome, Michigan was just plain fun. The water wasn't nearly as cold, and it stayed shallow very far out. There was this large rock in it that Kae and I went and climbed on. It was fun.

(Lake Michigan)

The U. P. is an awesome place and I will treasure the memories I made there forever.

I am in love with the Upper Peninsula, Michigan. Hopelessly. Deeply. Truly. In love.


Jay

Signal Fire

I like Spider-man (Understatement). And I like Snow Patrol (A music group).

So needless to say, I adore this video. And even if you don't like Spider-man or Snow Patrol, this is an awesome video.

:D




Jay

Grin of the Week

Smirk, rather...


I like Picard. ^_^

Jay

Grin of the Week

There is actually a picture of the Captain smiling!!!

And it is a seriously cute smile. :D

I am really, really, really looking forward to getting to see that movie!!!

Jay

Grin of the Week

Yeah, this week's grin is a car.


Lightning McQueen, from the movie, Cars. I love that movie, 'tis one of my favorites.

Jay

Metal, by its self, is not scary.

Metal, of any kind, after having seen X-Men: First Class, is terrifying.

Just saying...


Jay
