Running With Scissors began as an attempt to provide regular content to my site by creating quick and dirty little cartoons. My thought was that I could easily keep fresh material on-line and experiment with some alternate media and production techniques, without the kind of time investment that a full-blooded comic demands. Boy, was I wrong! It turned out that the "quick and dirty" cartoons required plenty of production time on their own, and the results were...well, they stunk to high heaven. I did a very few of them and then abandoned the project altogether.

Running With Scissors rev.2.0 was a slightly re-engineered spin on this idea. Instead of presenting original content which demands additional creative and production time, the feature presented creative content generated as a direct by-product of my work as a design professional; namely, meeting notebook doodles. Over the past couple of years, however, I've found this source of material waning, so I was once again forced to desperately cast about for a new schtick.

Revision 3.0, therefore, more exclusively delves into my sketchbooks, with, perhaps, an occasional new piece here and there. This feature may also display images from ancient history from time to time, like college notebooks, or even some sneak previews of future projects. (You intellectual-property thieves had better keep in mind, though, that this is all copyrighted, and a good half of my immediate family are high-powered lawyers who would just love the chance to $&!%# you up so bad...)

Please bear in mind that, as the Author and Webmaster, and as a free-thinking slightly-left-of-center American, I also reserve the right to spout off on any subject I so choose, on any given week's submission. You are welcome to disagree, but do know that I am genetically predisposed to being right.
