Today's Inspiration:
Decided they couldn't teach me anything; they had the same idea

I find it disheartening and incomprehensible that people can't or won't do anything of value, anything really original...

Buddy - Animation Time!

Today's Animation Time features the Buddy Rig.
Pulls up on the weight and struggles. Shakes back and forth. Relaxes and settles for a quick moving hold. He then pulls back, slides forward and flops down.
