  1. On March 25th, it will have been two years. I think I should get some stuff off my mind.

    I didn't know Edd personally, so I know it seems kind of silly to get sentimental over a person over the internet that I had never met. But Edd was the reason I started animating. If Sebas hadn't shown me 25 Feet Under The Seat some four or five years ago, I wouldn't have even considered animating. I'd just be another boring-ass teenager playing Call of Duty. When he was diagnosed with Leukemia, I remained hopeful that he'd be able to beat the cancer a second time. When word got to me that he passed away, it was just... horrible. Edd Gould truly was the greatest influence on my animation career, in that I wouldn't HAVE one without him. Even two years after the fact I wish he was still here. But he's not, so...

    Here. I'm going to cry if I say any more. I drew this. I purposely kept it messy to emulate the style of Eddsworld before TomSka and Paul took over. Later. !art http://pny.lv/00ha
