Happy Valentine's Day...

A few things came to mind when I thought about a Valentine's Day post: The card I made for Mr. Smith for the occasion (above), my friend Nate's cartoon he drew for me and a particular Outkast song that I just happen to have set as my ringtone this month on my cell.

Nate drew this for me a while back and it's hysterical. I like to call it "A Date with Kong". Some of you have seen this already. :) You may have to click on it to see a larger version. He is so talented and funny (and a riot to hang with). I hope he has some other fun stuff for me to post at some point! I know he is swamped animating at work right now tho. If you'd like to take a look at more of Nate's stuff you can find it here on his site www.natepratt.com



OutKast - Happy Valentine's Day Lyrics

My name is Cupid Valentino,
the modern day cupid.
I just want to say one thing.


Happy Valentine's Day!
Every day the 14th!
I don't think ya'll heard me?
I just wanna say Happy Valentine's Day!
Every day the 14th!
Can ya'll dig that?


Now when arrows don't penetrate,
Cupid grabs the pistol,
He shoots straight for your heart,
And he won't miss you.
That's alright ya'll won't believe in me anyway but,

Ya won't believe in me but you would fancy leprechauns or ground
hogs,
No thank you, Easter Bunny!
There's all this talk about Santa Claus,
But see love will rule supreme.


Happy Valentine's Day!
Every day the 14th!
When cupid knocks at your door,
You can't ignore me (there's no need to run)
Happy Valentine's Day!
Every day the 14th!
If you know what love means
Somebody tell me.


Ya won't believe in me but you would fancy leprechauns or ground
hogs,
No thank you, Easter Bunny!
There's so much fuss about Santa Claus,
But see cupid will not be defeated.


Happy Valentine's Day!
Every day the 14th!
Now I know your hearts have grown cold, and that bothers me.
Now I understand 'cause I used to be a bad boy in my day.
I know your tryin' to protect your lil' feelings,
But you can't run away. (Uh oh)

Ya won't believe in me but you would fancy,
Hey don't you suppose to be some kind of player or somethin'...

Bunny!!
Well keep on runnin', player cause I got my good shoes on
And I got 'em tied up tight, so your gon' find out tonight.



Got a sweet lil' darling back in my corner
Below I know I love her but, act like I don't want her
Surrounded by the lovely but yet feel like a loner
Could be an organ donor,
The way I'd give up my heart but never know because shit I never
tell her
Ask me how I'm feeling I'd holla that it's irrel'
I don't get myself caught in the Jello jella,
And pudding pops that other opt to call falling in love but,
For the record have you ever rode a horse?
Likely you just sent me to Pluto, I said of course
But if you ain't a sweety indeedy I won't endorse
Han Solo till I'm hit by bullets, obey the force
Bewitch you, and I rich you in better time permits
For now show me samples, examples why you're the shit
But how am I to know with the profession that I'm in
And if you do not know me then how could you be my friend


Happy Valentine
Happy Valentine (Valentine)
Happy Valentine's Day (Happy Valentine's Day) (x3)
