    I believe that the sea monkeys have already written the definitive guide to JavaScript for After Effects — it was done last May, wasn’t it, Aharon?

    I also believe that the language was just a bit rough so the publishers rejected it. Ever the humanitarian, Aharon (realizing that you can’t reject sea monkeys like this without permanently scaring their little souls) is working with them to do volume two of his web compression guide, to be entitled “Javascript Killed the Video Star.”

    Please keep that bottle of California wine away from Aharon as I heard that he tried to share a bottle with the sea monkeys I sent him and the poor things have been toasted all week. (There will be no end to the typos now!)

    Best regards,

    Actually the book was called “Sea Monkey’s killed my social life.” (or at least telling girls I had them did).

    Wine shmine. I’m drinking the finest vodka made in Kentucky. And it looks just like water so the sea monkeys don’t know what’s going on until it’s too late.

    I didn’t even know they made Vodka in Kentucky? Isn’t that called Moonshine? So that’s how JavaScript was devised – Sea Monkeys on Moonshine, it all makes sense now! The evolutionary process has turned full cycle….

    …..as for the ladies, plying them with moonshine riddled with Sea Monkeys was probably not your best move! But pussy-cats serving Vodka? As Jack says in the Shining “You set ’em up and I’ll knock ’em back Lloyd. One by one”!

    Well my vino is gone but the AE renders are looking great! A wee dram (as we say in Scotland), and I’ll review my renders in the morning!

    Look forward to volume 2 of the compression guide – written by sea monkeys of course!

    🙂

    You’d be amazed at where they make vodka. Or maybe you wouldn’t. At the bottom of this you’ll find the label for Cossack Vodka, distilled in the Boston suburb of Somerville…or as the folks who live in that town call it, Slum-erville. Nowhere near a slum, but let’s just say that even in Somerville, Cossack is notorious for being….notorious.

    Working for Boris, I got to witness major league professional vodka consumption. Awe-inspiring to watch the masters of their art. He told me has friends who swear they can name a vodka by tasting it…if it’s the only thing they taste, because after that, they all taste the same. 🙂 He spent lots of money on other kinds of wine and spirits, but recommended buying the cheapest vodka you can get your hands on.

    Hence, Cossack, from Somerville, MA.

    Cossack, baby
