Day #223 - for Erik on his birthday

It was either this or "Iron-overefffecient-Man", I chose the easy option.

Erik was my first ever boss in IT (if you don't count Gateway) but I didn't really report to him, I did enjoy poking fun at him and he has always been a very good sport about it, of course none of it was ever done with any malice intended.

He probably doesn't know this but I still have the "HuP Holland" hat that he gave me and the Dutch version of the Graphic Work of MC Escher, I was envious of his "complete works of Escher" and I did eventually get my own copy (in English).

I remember his scripts and I remember poking fun at the spelling mistakes, I remember that when he had to develop the image for AMP that he had to print out the entire Windows (95 I think, or maybe NT4) registry and read through it all to understand it, or maybe he was just showing off.

I remember that he had his goals posted on his wall in his office and by goals I mean photos of things that he'd like to have.

I remember that his house is an ex porn studio.

But most of all I remember that he has a heart of gold and a classic laugh.

How could I not draw Augustus?

Happy Birthday mate and keep up the good work! (chasing away Augustus I mean!)
