took this in vancouver, mg and k-os backstage at ubc . metric was also on the bill. k-os asked if i was in the band. we later got chatty on myspace, i was with my ex at the time. it’s amazing sometimes the people you can reach, and inspire. k os said a photo of me was inspiring to him. anyway this was in april 2005. mg and i were tight then.

  1. I remember when I got your book, it was a shitty fucking period in my life and I read it in one sitting, then flipped back to the start and read it again. Something about it made sense to me but I don’t know what.

  2. I was too then, I don’t think I could get that thin or would want to again

    The nirvana shot, no, you weren’t always that pouty cool, you had alot of excited nerdy days too.

  3. two things:
    a) I love that all your drawings booze bottles have little x’s on them
    2) the pickle drawing – very funny, make sure no one steals that shit for an idea for tv ads. It kind of made me think of that bicks pickle commercial about the reporter alien but then i watched it and your idea is different.
    hi, bye.

  4. I still think that is the greatest title for a book ever. I like to reread my copy every 6 months or so.

  5. I think you should make a book of cartoons . In fact I think you should do children’s and young adult books in this fashion. I’ll write the children’s for you. You draw.
    Deal?

  6. Love this post(love them all)! I’ve never commented before but I am an avid reader since before 2005 and I just think you are adorable and I really admire all that is Raymi! Your an inspiration :)
