A Kick in the Face!

Posted by Ghosty22 - February 25th, 2008


Okay... So I was worried for awhile there that unemployment and the loss of my home were going to ruin the show for me, but I realize that I have seven whole months. That's a long time. I think that I was just worrying about whether or not I could pull this off, but I feel a bit more comfortable with the situation now. I realize I was probably panicking unnecessarily. I've always felt that art is my life, and all of my major achievements, steps, and hurdles would be art-related. Planning for the future dealt with trying to build my own artistic empire, whether that sounds naive to you or not. I didn't really think too much about house buying other than the fact that I tried to save money for it and knew that I'd have to do it one day. Making and promoting your art is a lot of work, and that's pretty much what my life has been. It just turns out that I have to start thinking more about my life now, rather than procrastinating. The sooner I do it, the better off I'll probably be anyway. Who wants to turn 30 and be living at home?

So, since I have time still, I'm going to try to finish two KR47s this week, because I didn't put one up last month. I may even try to crank out two more, so I can get them done ahead of time, putting them out in the following months, which will allow me to work on Chanter Tales for two months without the worry of working on other things.

So... If I don't have at least ONE KR47 cartoon done by the weekend, I want you all to personally hunt me down... And kick me... Right in the FACE! You'll all be like:

"Hey, Dan... Where's the KR47?"

And I'll be like... "Uh... What KR47? What? Is that some sort of code? I don't know what you're talking about..."

"Don't pull that shit with me!" you'll say.

"What? Seriously... I don't know what you're talking about!"

And, at that point, I want you to leap at me all anime-style, every single one of you, simultaneously, with flashy streaks shimmering behind you, giving your best battle cries, and then round-house kick me, right in the face... Just like Chuck Norris would do...

If that KR47 cartoon isn't done by the weekend, my face should be fucked UP!

So yeah...

Wow.....

It might be time to get a job :p

Know of any good ones?

I'll kick you in the face more than once if you like =)

Cool! Nothing gets a person motivated like a good old-fashioned face kicking!

Sorry to be so naive but what does KR47 actually mean?
I've always wanted to ask you and now seems like a good time.

Looking forward to the new episodes and will be voting ridiculously high!

Try not to let recent events bring you down too much, mate.

Well... Back when I worked at the book store, the management always wanted us to recommend books for the "staff recommends" section. They wanted us to recommend a book and then write a little review on a card that would be displayed with the book. I rarely did this, because I just didn't care. And I didn't really think that people cared about what some dumb cashier was reading. So I didn't recommend anything. Rob, however, did. When he was filling out the cards, he'd sign his name "KR47." The first time I'd noticed he was doing this was when when one of the managers, Joe, pointed it out to me. I asked him what it meant, and he said that the "KR" stood for "King Rob." Later I started to notice that Rob would sign all company documents by writing "KR47," instead of his actual name.

So when I first started animating the KR47 cartoons, I was trying to think of a name for them, and since they were based on the weird stuff Rob said to me, I figured I'd name the series after him.

Years later, I was talking to Rob as we were closing down the store, and there was this book that had the number 47 on it, and he told me that 47 was his number. I asked why it was his number, and he just said that he liked it, and whenever he had to choose a number, for whatever reason, he always picked 47.

Its great that your not freaking out too much anymore! And that face kicking will be on its way if I dont see some KR47 soon! Kansas/Canadian style!

OK! I didn't realize that Canadians and people from Kansas had their own special face-kicking techniques!

Aye. Now I can ride Ted, my pet moose all the way to your house and beat the hell out of you "All redneckish ya' har?" Oh yeah and I will through a syrup covered beaver at you.

Holy crap!

I knew what KR stood for. You should have just asked me.

Oh, that happened a long time ago... When Joe told me what it meant, that was before I'd met you.

For those of you who don't know, Kenshin1913 is Pete Q --the director and editor of the KR47 live-action movie.
