I get really excited when I see young people doing creative things that my adult friends could never execute. There is something genius about a pre-adolescent deciding to start a band, or be a clothing designer etc...in this particular case I'm talking about a talented animator named Asher. He has created an entire website (since 2004!) which hosts short films- animated cartoons and videos utilizing his pals as character voices. There are sound effects and music which suit the work and an impressive amount of choices listed for viewing. You can find his site here:

and then when you get to the page click on peanut foot ENTER HERE...and then click on FILMS. I started watching RED STATE Banjo.
When I was in middle school- I was playing with puppets. The closest thing I had to a computer was intellevision.
I imagine Mr. P would have a similar "RANTINGS" website when he was younger, check out Asher's rant journal here:

I don't think any of the participants are in H.S. yet...although they keep their actual ages a mystery and simply say they are between 0-100. I love a good mystery.
awwwww- this is so RAD you made a post on this!
I went and watched these too.
One day I hope I can meet Asher...he seems like a straight-up cool kid:)
