Question for GR47While growing up, perhaps you’ve always wanted. Maybe it was a Barbie or Lego. But your parents messed up and got you something else similar. i.e. a Spice girl doll, or perhaps MegaBloks. It could be clothing. i.e. you wanted Levi’s but got Wrangler. Please tell us your stories details are nice. They may get used in Giant Robot 47. Please including you name, age if you want, and your city.

I don’t know if you give a shit like me, but I like these a lot. You can see these from far away. If you click through the photos, I like how one has a cherry blossom tree within their small front yard, I’ll try and pay attention to what their lawn looks like when the leaves fall. I bet it’ll look cool. Their yard gets a high rating for the tree in the there this week. After it dies off and the flowers fall and it’s forgotten, we’ll see how high the rating will be. Most of the images are from Stoner Park. If you go there, there’s cherry blossom trees lining the entire park. The others are from random yards and one is from the Buddhist Temple. It’s where we photographed Puffyamiyumi.

Next week is the San Francisco International Asian American Film fest. I’ll be there as a judge. 12 films in a few days. I can handle it. Also there’s an art show at Giant Robot SF. I’ll be there too, I hope! Here’s an article about the film fest. Somewhere in there, I’m mentioned along with my cousin for a project I made in nearly a past life. Sunsets. Even thought this article is printed in Asian Week, I can tell they read through this one to make sure it was clean. Back to that controversy, I understand them firing the guy who wrote it, but what about the editor? That’s the real culprit isn’t it? I still don’t understand this one. Here’s a rough heirarchy: Publisher – This dude is out to lunch. He probably doesn’t read a thing. He’s busy checking up on his stores. Yeah, that’s what he does. Editor in Chief – This person reads every article, he or she reads the headlines too. “Why I hate Blacks” That’s one to just let slip by. Sure. Why not? It’ll be controversial. Yeah cool. No skin of my ass, I didn’t write it. Managing Editor – I missed the article. Where was it? Oh, it wasn’t on my desk. What? It was uploaded on the server? I didn’t see it? It’s not my fault. Associate Editor – What the fuck? I work 80 hours a week for peanuts. They should have listened to me. Writer – I just wrote the shit. Fuck em all, I always say. You guys aren’t getting it. Who’s to blame that the article went into print? Go up the chain folks. When it’s a mistake, we take the blame. Think Mr. T “When there’s a gun, I take the bullet, when there’s a knife, I take the blade.”
