I've got this sticky on my desktop (a little text file) and every evening since last Monday I've been pasting your comments into it with the intention of printing it all out when your done, and every night when I read and paste in the new replies, I think: 'Holy sh*t! This is excellent--he can't possibly share anything as good as this tomorrow night!', and yet here we are...it's Friday evening! and I now have an enormous file that is an absolute goldmine and a real inspiration!
Thank you for sharing Mr. Kelly! No, it's too late to ask for cash.

Thanks, David!
Wow. That was so inspiring to read. Thanks a lot, man. It's really exciting for me to think that even a few of you might be getting something out of this stuff!
Did I miss any questions? I might have, some jackass named "shawn" was posting such long posts that it's really hard to tell if I missed anything!
If I missed your question, feel free to email me and let me know. I'll answer it as best I can. Work is pretty crazy, so if you email me and don't hear back right away, just hang in there! The answer will be on the way as soon as I can send it!
Anyway - you guys were awesome! Thanks so much for all the kind words - you're all way too nice. This whole ask-a-pro thing has been extremely inspirational for me, and I want to thank Rick for the opportunity to do it.
A lot of your questions reminded me of Bobby, Carlos, and myself when we were in school. Your questions are the same ones we would ask whenever we had the chance to talk to a professional! It was a little weird to be on the flip-side of that, but I hope I answered them okay.
And I hope it didn't sound like I know everything, because I'm the first guy who will tell you that I have TONS to learn about animation, and to me, that's the most exciting part about our art. I'll never know it all, so it will never be boring! Do you know how lucky that makes us?
I'll be poking my head into cg-char now and then to say howdy and to see what you guys are up to...
I guess I just want to say that I had a ton of fun doing this, and thanks to everyone for making it a great experience. It seems to me that there's a lot of ninjas on this forum just waiting to burst out of their crazy ninja stasis pods and into their black pajamas, so keep at it!!!! Freaking NINJAS, man! NINJAS!!!!!
over and out.

ps - what are "ninja stasis pods?" I have no idea. But it sounds cool, doesn't it!? Like little pods from outer space that get sent down to Earth where they plop into deserted swamps and the space-ninjas lay in stasis until they are awakened to fight evil!?
