Hey y'all. New journal means another set of updates. First all I want you guys to know I haven't given up drawing. To prove it I picked up working on something I haven't touched in months until today. I uploaded my progress on it so far to my SCRAPS folder. Normally I really hate sharing any work in progress but I kinda felt I needed too. You can see it here. I also went ahead and uploaded a couple of pictures taken at Palo Alto Battlefield from a couple of months ago that I particularly like alot. At that particular event I volunteered to command a squad of soldados after a couple of them on the roster who would take charge couldn't make

Hey everyone. Seeing as how I do a little journal every time I submit something, here we are. Feb 6th was my 5th living history event at Palo Alto Battlefield National Historic Park,(technically 6th since I volunteered and suited up anyway after the event was canceled). Had alot of fun there even though I didn't fire my issued musket (lock was broken go figure) and I couldn't take any pictures of the guys in action. You will have noticed I did take some of myself, and posted the better ones here. The reason why I took them is because officially on the rosters I portray a US infantryman, and since its not everyday I get to play a Mexican sold

dA Subscription

0 min read
Hi everyone. Well just want to break the news I got myself a dA 1 year subscription. Now some of y'all know (prolly just 1 person) know of my intention to never buy a subscription for myself, because it would be a big waste of money since frankly I'm not very timely with updates. Well I did manage to keep that promise in manner of speaking. I got this offer through dA if I tried some product listed through this thing called TrialPlay, I would get a 1yr subscription. In short I did, picking a 14 day free trial of RealOne Pass. I guess we'll see where this leads. ------ On the art front. At the time of this writing I've started picking up

Hey man! I've created a page here for my music project:
waterplea.deviantart.com

For now there's just a couple of photos and a cover art for our new ambient album with download links but as soon as our older album is officially released I'll upload some more art used in the booklet for it. I doubt I'll use this old account so you can friend my new one. Take care ;)
Thanks a million for letting me know bud! Really appreciate the heads up. I'll be sure to add that new account to my watch list as soon as I can. And best of luck with your music gig! Looking forward to see more.

This is not SPAM! ITS URGENT FOR MY RACE!
Sad fact is illegal immigration is really hurting the United States economically. Mexico, rather than work with the United States in solving this problem, is doing nothing but encouraging it. We can't pass comprehensive immigration reform without the Mexican government's help. Because of that these sorts of measures need to be taken since there is no sensible alternative.

My father immigrated here legally from China, Nuevo Leon and got his citizenship later; my mother's family immigrated here from Mexico as well but she was born here in the United States.

I am of Mexican decent yes, but I'm even prouder that I'm an American. You may think of me as a "traitor" or "brainwashed" (like I hear from some around me) but I full heatedly believe that this isn't discrimination on Mexicans, nor is it anti-immigration legislation. We have no problem with Mexicans coming over and wanting to start a better life here in the United States, but they MUST go through the proper channels. Until Mexico shapes up and works with the United States, we can't really pass reform here that will benefit everyone. That includes steps making it easier to become a citizen here.

I'm sorry, but I can't in good conscience fight this bill.
They do try to get there papers here like most of my family. I was the only one born in the USofA but you get your papers here faster. Also we are not takeing the jobs! we are just taking the jobs that whiten people and people who think there to good to get that job. We only take those jobs. So America has no right at saying we are taking jobs. Where only taking the Rejected jobs in america. Americans think to high of them selves with my observation.

I'm also Japanes, Korean, Chinese.
Implying white people don't want to dirty their hands to earn a living is getting close to borderline racism; careful.

The notion that illegal immigrants (not just Mexican) are doing jobs that ordinary Americans don't want is unfounded. I'm not sure if you've seen it but there is a wonderful show on the Discovery Channel called "Dirty Jobs" where the host goes across America to find those jobs that "make civilized life possible". If you haven't seen it here's a special song the host wrote to give you an idea what sort of jobs we are talking about.

I hope that illustrates the point. I can grantee they only visit business that employ LEGAL citizens and immigrants, since I'm sure the Discovery Network wants no part of a scandal in this politically charged climate.

The REAL problem is that Americans can't get jobs because employers have more incentive to hire an illegal immigrant than an American citizen. If they hire an illegal immigrant they don't have to worry about paying him/her minimum wage or provide reasonable job benefits or safe working conditions for that matter. That illegal immigrant won't complain either for fear of deportation. If anything you should be mad at those people who hire illegals because it amounts to economic slavery/exploitation.

Remember the raids on companies across the U.S by the Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the big fuss over it not to long ago? Do you know what happened afterward?

After a raid on Crider Inc. (a chicken processing plant) in Stillmore, Georgia they raised their pay more than a dollar an hour what they were paying illegal aliens and subsequently approx. 400 unemployed people showed up for job interviews, and about half of them were hired. SOURCE: [link]

In 2008 in Laurel Mississippi; the electronics maker Howard Industries was raided and hundreds of U.S. citizens lined up for a job (even one woman drove 40 miles to get there). SOURCE [link]

There's more proof positive that Americans want these so called "Rejected Jobs". The fact is there is no such thing here in this country.


Illegal immigrants don't contribute to our economy either; they pay little to no taxes, use social services at a higher rate than Americans do and most of what little they do earn goes back to support their family back in their home country. We also spend $4.7 Billion Dollars a year on health care for illegal immigrants not to mention the $30 Billion we spend each year on educating illegal aliens in our schools. Illegal immigrants make only 3% of the population here, but they make up 17% of the population in U.S. Federal Prisons, and we have to pay for that too.


...Think about it.
no worries your welcome
