Weird government practises.
The Australian government does some strange things. One of those things is their campaign against smoking.
The government have setup a call center, called Quitline, for smokers. They vehemently protest against the use of cigarettes and smoking through advertising campaigns. They make sure everybody knows that they think smoking is bad. But all they do is show ads about it?
I suppose it's a wise idea. Educating people about the dangers of smoking, and providing a way out. But if the government really wanted to eradicate smoking, they should illegalise it.
Some people believe that this would only increase the demand for it, just because it's illegal. But I think it would be more a deterrent than anything, because the average smoker is just the average Australian person. They don't want to get mixed up in any drug rings or trafficking charges just for a pack of smokes.
I have been getting into some drawing lately. I've always enjoyed drawing, just never been very good at it. This time around, nothing has changed. I'm still pretty crappy. But on the plus side, I'm improving. I even learnt how to colour my stuff today (albeit poorly, but it's a start. Not bad for a first try in my opinion).

I know, I know. It's pretty awful, and I missed a couple of spots on the lines. But when I have more time I'll probably redo it (with some shading).
Me and a friend are getting into the webcomic scene. Thankfully, he's doing the artistic work, and I'll be the writer for it. Should be fun.
Speaking of writing stuff, I could not find anything to write up a comic for today. What is with the downtime of news lately? Maybe somebody will blow stuff up, or at least do something that I can write about.
I got offered 3 seven hour shifts at Target on Friday nights. Means I'll have a bit of extra cash in my pocket which I can use. Hoping to get World of Warcraft soon, so some of that cash can contribute. As long as I don't need a credit card and can do everything via the Game Cards, it should be smooth sailing.
Made a collage in PS today. Was bored and thought I'd show my appreciation for some guys that are close to me (in a completely non-sexual way, get your mind out of the gutter).

Oh yeah, taking suggestions for a name for a webcomic by the way. If any of you have read CAD, PA or VGCats, our goal is to be something similar to that (mainly gaming genre with some misc. comics in between). We're stumped as to what to call it. Leave your suggestions in the comments.
Out.

Well, illegalizing smoking can have harsh effects on the economy, which is why I think the abolishment should go gradually.
