This is for Guest Directed Self #14 The prompt is listed below.
I can’t make myself show rage. I was told repeatedly when I get angry I become cold, detached, emotionless before it unleashes. That moment before it unleashes in violent rage I close my eyes and tried to hold it back. I don’t want to let it go. I want to hold it in and control it, smash it down and defeat it, even when I unleashed on my younger brother via text message I closed my eyes for a moment. So for this I used the webcam. I wanted the grittier feel of it, then I opened it in gimp and used the pixelize tool.
OK guys, here’s my idea. I want you to think about all the things that make you crazy! The guy that stole your parking space, the lady in front of you on line at the grocery store with 857 out of date coupons, the ridiculous college girl on line at the local coffee shop asking if the caramel macchiato tastes like caramel macchiato “you know, like Starbucks”, or that douchebag dating the girl you should be with. What ever gets your goat, I want you to fill your mind with all of these things. Now hopefully you already have your camera set up because I wouldn’t want you to rage break anything. Now look straight down the barrel of that lens and let it out. Scream, shout or flail about, whatever it takes to release that crazy do it! Oh yeah, don’t forget to press that shutter button, I don’t want to miss your beautiful angry faces.
Very interesting, thanks for sharing!!!

Day 352/365
Instead of thinking about who I was angry at, I decided to put on Michael and Janet Jackson’s “Scream” and start clawing at my face. I’m terribly red now. And a litte light headed. But less frustrated.
I’m lovin’ it!!!
TCDTK Episode 9
Welcome to this weeks show you guys! This episode we got the opportunity to sit down and talk wit The Kid’s Dad, Dan Arcuri. As usual we talked about whatever came up. From being Santa, to drumming in a gigging band, to learning a new instrument, even disc golf. We got into the wide variety of music available in the current media outlets and Dan talked about what it was like before the Beatles came to the U.S. All-in-all Dan was a super interesting guy and we can wait to have him back on and hear more stories. As always we hope you enjoy and please feel free to subscribe, rate, and even comment on the show.
You know what to do guys! I hope you like it!
Guest-Directed Self-Portrait #12 : You are bulletproof. You are invulnerable. You don’t need food or water or shelter. No one can stop you. You could tear the world around you down like it was made of styrofoam. You are unstoppable. Invincible. Convince yourself, and show us you’re a force of nature that no shelter could protect from. Me against myself.
