About me:

For those of you who use Google for a homepage, I made a gadget! It's just a little box with the latest updates, thoughts, etc... of me. If you want to add it to your google homepage Click Here to Add "The Daily Hank"

The Latest Issue of "Sage Advice" is How to make a Staff of Light

Ok... For those of you who don't know who I am, here's the shortlist:
I've been an artist for twenty years, mostly in the fields of advertising and web design. Know it or not, you've probably seen my artwork. It may have been a band logo, a magazine ad, or some other random visual blip in your life... but you've probably seen it. These days I split my working time between fantasy art and t-shirt designs. (Are you a corporate buyer for shirts or gifts? Drop me a line)
Check HankAkins.Com to read more. For the past couple of years I've had constant vertigo and we're still trying to figure out what's up. If your inquiring mind wants to know more, there is way too much info about my health here.
Are you into ancestry? Check it out!
Hmmm... what else?
I was a paratrooper. I was an assistant chef under a Le Cordon Bleu (Paris) graduate. I like puzzles. I hardly ever wear shoes (unless I'm in public). My favorite animal is the wolf. I am addicted to dragons. I've also been a landscaper, dj, tat artist, site designer, art director and once upon a time a Jack in the Box employee. I like pie. Especially with any kind of berry. I also like roller coasters, movies, fairs, museums, lemon heads, outdoors, rivers, and a few hundred other things.

Friends - I check about once a day, so keep in touch!

I only have a couple rules about being a Friend or posting your Comments. I don't need a free iPod, I don't want to watch your porn webcam, and I don't want to be part of your pyramid scam. So don't bother signing up and then posting your ad. I will delete you as a friend, and delete your comment. (Any ads that DO make to make to the comments are ones I approve of) I've disabled images and html in my comments because my page was getting crazy wide. Other than that, post away :)

    Yep. Had come back from Albany. It usually takes 45 minutes from Albany to my place. It took me an hour and a half. When I got home, they plows had come through and blocked my way in. So I shoveled a ton of snow...but it wasn't enough and my car got stuck. LOL So my mom and I spent another half hour shoveling snow out from UNDER the car and front tires. What fun! :D
