I hail from Richland, within the Tri-city area of Washington State. If you've never heard of this area, you're on the right track. I've had a thing for screwing around with Photoshop for a few years now, and thought I'd try my hand at making people laugh by posting my work on Cracked.com (actually, I just want that $50 prize so I can gloat on Facebook how much more awesomer I am than others).
