Adult Swim Should Hire Charles McCarthy

McDonalds on the Moon

2007-05-07T18:09:00.001-04:00

I think we all know that the world's resources are rapidly dwindling. We are not going to be able to cut back on consumption and population growth enough to stop the violent economic and environmental collapses that are eminent if we continue on this course.

I can see only one solution. McDonalds needs to team up with Walmart, Coca Cola, GM, and Boeing to build the first human outpost on the moon along with a McDonalds and a Walmart.

How does this help the earth? There is no environment on the moon to destroy, no species to kill off, and plenty of land. Pollute it all you want, it will just make the view of the moon from earth more interesting. Millions of people could immigrate to the moon, taking a great deal of stress off of the global ecosystem.

Why does this make sense for McDonalds and friends? It makes sense for two major reasons. First, certain advantages in production and actual business. Production costs on the moon would be high at first, really high, but once the facilities and infrastructure were built McDonalds and Walmart could grow food in giant greenhouses, bathed in a constant summer sun. Imagine how big and fat cows and other livestock could grow in such a low gravity environment. Think of the alloys that GM and Boeing could produce and use in there products, and how production could be carried out with little regard to waste byproducts. Moreover, the major interest of the Walmart corporation has always been real-estate and they have been building new Walmart village prototypes across the country that combine a smaller Walmart store with apartments and other shops and restaurants. Finally, you can't have McDonalds fries and burgers without a coke to wash it all down. Why shouldn't these companies, the most recognizable brands in the world, want to be the most recognizable brands in the solar system? Second, Think of the publicity and good will it would generate for their brands. Think of the marketing campaigns, and new products it would spawn, the "McMoon Burger," "Solar Soda." From purely a PR and advertising standpoint, this makes sense financially. Think of the contests that McDonalds and Coke could run. Enter to win! Be the first person to have McDonalds fries on the moon!

The best part about this is that wherever McDonalds builds a McDonalds, Burger King and scores of other franchises are quick to follow. How could Pepsi let Coke be the only drink sold on the moon? How can Burger King only "BK" on earth? Moreover, they could not withstand the backlash that would come from not trying to set up shop on the moon. They don't care about the earth enough to colonize the moon to take the stress off of our fragile environment? I'm not eating at Burger King anymore. Think about it.

So what can we do? Talk about it. Call companies up. Email them. Write letters to McDonalds, Coke, Walmart. Write letters to newspapers. Those of you who are better writers than me, who understand what I am saying, rewrite this, expand the arguments, and send it out to everyone you know. Email your friends.

Get out there and start the ball rolling,

Charles McCarthy

New Direction

2006-10-10T05:58:00.000-04:00

I have created a pilot for the new Turner Broadband site.

It is called Rock and Roll Lawyer, and it will be a big hit.

Bamboo Garden

2006-04-29T17:07:00.000-04:00

I think that I mentioned making some commercials for the Chinese food franchise Bamboo Garden but many of you probably have not had a chance to see the commercials since they are only playing on Aljazeera and other select satellite stations. Through the magical technology of Myspace.com I am able to bring them to you today. Here they are. Let me know, and more importantly, let Adult Swim know what you think.

Back In The Saddle Again

2006-04-26T15:58:00.000-04:00

I know you have all missed me, and you probably think that the dream is dead. Dreams never die, only dreamers who decide to dream while standing in the middle of the road or on some train tracks. I have not given up, but I have been distracted. I have recently been working on several TV show pilots and world broadcast TV shows. In fact, you might have seen me ringside on last weeks ESPN Friday Night Fights.

I have also been helping to put together the soon to be international blockbuster film, International Douche Bag that will be sweeping the globe sometime next year or so.

Yes, I have been busy, and I am in the news again. My superior artistic talent has been recognized by the Red & Black once again.

Don't stop the fight!

My New Jam

2006-03-15T00:28:00.000-05:00

It's been a long time. I shouldn't have left you without a phat beat to step to, so here it is, the newest hot song about me Hire Charles McCarthy by MR. Mips.

If anyone wants to make a dance remix of this song, that would be cool.

The battle may be over, but the war has just begun!

Gallery Opening

2006-03-06T22:51:00.000-05:00

I am sorry that I haven't kept you all up to date on what's going on. I have been hard at work putting my art show together. I know you will all be there, and those of you who can't be there in person will be there in spirit. Here are all the details at a glance.

Where: Sabra Gallery in East Atlanta. Go to SabraGallery.com for directions.

When: Saturday March 11, 2006 - 7-10pm.

What: My art and some free vino.

I'll see you all there.

Attractive Eighties Women

2006-02-28T12:28:00.000-05:00

My band Attractive Eighties Women is now seeking both a new drummer, and a keyboard/key-tar player. We want our drummer to play other intstruments, because he is not a very good drummer, and our old keyboard player fell down a well, and well, died. Yeah. It was sad.

If you think you have what it takes, and you want to relocate to the Atlanta area, send me a picture of yourself, some links to some samples of your abilities, and also some sort of convoluted statement as to why you want to be part of AEW.

To tell you the truth, we would really like another female keyboard player, and it would be great if she had mystique.

Preparations

2006-02-23T20:00:00.000-05:00

I have been busy day and night making preparations for my art show opening.

Don't give up.

A New Road

2006-02-21T11:05:00.000-05:00

I officially begin work today on a new project, "Bee Revolutionary," the story of a bee trying to overthrow the queen of his hive. If I can't get my foot in the door at the bottom at Williams St., I will have to take a helicopter to the roof, even though you can drive a car to the roof. If anyone is interested in helping out with this project, feel free to contact me. I could use someone well versed in sound design.

Adult Swim Should Hire Charles McCarthy

2006-02-17T13:10:00.000-05:00

Live Via Satellite

hello all! it is your faithful campaign manager here, Ernesto, wishing you greetings from LA. for once it is not sunny here. man! was i getting sick of those perfect sunny days!

down to business: just because i haven't blogged in awhile doesn't mean i'm not still supporting Charles 100%. we haven't lost anything here, we've merely been pushed aside, only to fan the flames of our flamingly firey dedication. perseverence! there is no better way to prove resiliance than being beaten down.

plus, who here has ever seen the Big Green, or Little Giants, or Angels in the Outfield? imagine Charles IS that rag-tag team of underdogs. sure he sucks right now, it's only the middle of the season! don't you see he's just setting everyone up for a chance-in-hell shot at the finals and a big game full of hijinx and an "it'll-never-work" slow-motion dive to victory?! man, is he gonna show all of you.

CHARLES MCCARTHY IN '06!

About.com Time!

2006-02-17T00:41:00.000-05:00

I know some of you probably think that I am giving up. I know some of you probably think that my arch nemesis Alex C. has won. I know that some of you think that I am just going to walk away, that my campaign is as futile as pointing out that the Republicans are screwing up our country to a blind man, but I am here to tell you that I am not going to give up. I am not going to quit, and I know that some of you support me, some of you in positions of power like About.com's Nancy Basile. Nancy is the About.com expert or "guide" for animated TV shows. She gave me this uplifting plug today.

Desperate Man Seeks Job at Adult Swim

This dude is too much. Here's a guy, Charles McCarthy, who has devoted a whole blog and web site to getting a job as a production assistant at Adult Swim. If you pity him, visit his web site Adult Swim Should Hire Charles McCarthy.

Thank you Nancy. I have to admit that I was feeling a little down after yesterday, but your inspirational words touched me and lifted me up.

Little Victories

2006-02-15T17:29:00.000-05:00

I received some news today from Adult Swim. To quote the recruiter Adult Swim has, "decided to move forward with another candidate at this time."

Yes!

I know some of you are thinking that this is a bad thing, that this means that I didn't get the job, and you are partly right. I didn't get the job that I was up for, "at this time," but there is a silver lining to this. Look closely at the statement. Do you see it?

Yes?

Yes, they recognized me as a legitimate candidate.

Some of you are probably thinking that I am crazy right now, but remember three things. One, there is a very thin line between craziness and genius. Two, the world did not just end, and some "time" down the line Adult Swim will probably need to hire someone else. Three, we have no idea who this other "candidate" is. They could be completely incompetent. I'm not sure how they got the job, but it is plain to me, as it should be to you all, that they didn't run a very effective campaign. If they did, we would know who they were.

Back to the trenches!

We just have to write more emails, sign the petition more, grind our teeth in our sleep more, and run that marathon naked this time! The Russians didn't stop fighting the Germans even though they didn't have bullets for their guns or boots for their feet. Our forefathers did not stop fighting the British even though they didn't have nice red coats to wear like the British. Never stop believing.

A Poem For Your Help

2006-02-15T13:16:00.000-05:00

Thank you all for your help and diligent work over the last couple of months. Here is a poem for helping me.

GI Joe
by
Charles McCarthy

I wish I wish I wish that there was a Cobra Comander
I wish that there was a Dr. Claw
I wish that there was an evil man in charge and behind it all.
Lady Jane and Sargent Slaughter would kill him
in a bloodless battle filled with plastic body parts
that can be glued back on without much harm
I wish that Storm Shadow and Optimus Prime
and everyone else in some giant battle could end
the problems of the world. I wish that there was an evil
man who could be killed to make the world safe for every
boy and girl.

The battle isn't over so keep sending those emails to Adult Swim.

Happy Valentine's Day

2006-02-14T11:07:00.000-05:00

Happy Valentine's Day. I hope you are all having a wonderful day. Here is a love poem that I wrote.

LOVE POEM #1
by
Charles McCarthy

I wish you weren't so far away
I wish I had my own place to stay
I wish we could sit and talk
and maybe shoot a bothersome hawk
I hate how hawks squawk and flock

Art Work Up For Discussion

2006-02-13T18:32:00.000-05:00

My art work is now up on theArt Crit blog. I feel delinquent in my duties as your leader in the campaign to get Adult Swim to hire me, but I have been preparing for my gallery show that is coming up in March. I hope you all understand. If you would like more information and would like to come, visit SabraGallery.com.

Still no news from Adult Swim. I am starting to think that they are enjoying my campaign too much, and want it to go on forever for pure entertainment value. After all, who entertains the entertainers? Me? Keep up the good work and don't let your spirits drop. Here is a poem that I wrote. It will either lift your spirits or depress you.

Baywatch
by
Charles McCarthy

Fake boobs
Fake smiles
Fake runs
Fake swimming
the only thing that's
real is the sand and the
surf and I'm sure even
that is faked in some
episodes
this is America.
Baywatch is America to
most of the world
because it is the most
watched show in the world
the most widely viewed show
in the world.
Fake
is what the world sees
of America.
You and me
and I am the real America
and I am not

No matter how hairy I get.

No News Blues

2006-02-12T22:10:00.000-05:00

Well, I still have no news about the job one way or the other. I guess no news is good news, but the waiting is tough. Of course I realize that the anticipation must be just killing all of you too. What can I say? Chin up.

My Story Is Heading Into Syndication

2006-02-09T17:22:00.000-05:00

Thanks to Steve Gilliard at The News Blog the news of my campaign has gained even more momentum. The News Blog has republished parts of the Red&Black story on me along with some other insightful comments from Steve such as this excerpt:

I don't know if the folks at Adult Swim will find humor in this, they should, but then, as Jim Morrison said "you cannot petition the Lord with prayer".

But then, considering his job will be to be funny, humor might just work.

Anyway, any time I can write about someone not being an idiot online, well.....let's just say when it comes to jobs, it's not all that common.

Thank you Steve for your faith in me and your brilliant quote from Jim Morrison that might just change some peoples' "perception of the Doors" and of me and my campaign.

Male Modeling

2006-02-08T10:59:00.000-05:00

Many of you have been writing to me, asking me to see some pictures from my days as a male model. Well, bam, you get your wish, and you get your wish, and you get your wish. This is a spread that I did for the Audacity's Guys of the SEC. I know what you are thinking: Why did I ever quit? I don't know. I just don't know. I could probably be making the big bucks taking pictures like these, but I was drawn away by something... What? Art? Light? Life? Coke? I searched and searched, and I have found what I want to do...I want to work at Adult Swim.

Please be sure to sign my petition, and email Adult Swim.

Thank you.

Go Dawgs!

2006-02-07T12:35:00.000-05:00

Ever since my article came out in the Red&Black I have been receiving a strong outpouring of support from both UGA students and alum.

This is a piece of art work created for me by Angel Pronger UGA BFA 89’. I guess she still loves "dawgs."

If you haven't read the article yet, click here.

Red & Black Article

2006-02-06T19:44:00.000-05:00

The article about me finally got printed in today's Red&Black To read it click here.

I think it a pretty nice article. The author, Juanita Cousins, even mentioned my arch nemesis Alex C. I hope he appreciates the fact that I got his name out there too, but he probably doesn't. I really think that something is wrong with him based on his recent decline, and also the fact that he hasn't said anything about my last blog post. If you know Alex C., please call him or go by and check on him. He may not be well.

There were a few minor errors, such as the website address, but I still feel super special.

I Am A Video Star

2006-02-05T15:22:00.000-05:00

I haven't just been running a campaign to get hired. I have also been acting in hip music videos. Here is a music video by my friend Kirk Wells for the song, Chinese Trapeze Artist. I think, if I understand it right, I am playing a communist who is in love with the narrator's sister played by my beautiful lady friend Casey Delong. Click here to see the video and be sure to check out Kirk's website, RaisNoChicken.com.

Enjoy, and don't forget to keep writing those emails to Adult Swim and signing my petition.

Pretty Good Day

2006-02-04T19:41:00.000-05:00

I had a pretty good day today. I got to play some basketball.

So, yeah, nothing much to say right now except that you all are wonderful. Thank you all for your support. I am supposed to hear something next week.

A Shady Figure From My Past

2006-02-02T17:41:00.000-05:00

I just want to get this out in the open. I don't want anyone thinking that I am trying to hide something. I used to work as a male model/journalist for a quarterly publication called the Audacity. I have recently been contacted by my editor and chief from my time there, Andrew Wright. This is a picture of him from back in the day.

He has come on board as my Minister of the Exterior in my campaign to be hired by Adult Swim. He will be bringing you news of wonder and amazement from the Exterior!

Letter of Endorsement

2006-02-02T17:19:00.000-05:00

I just received this letter of recommendation from Kitsune Kit. I thought it was a very nice letter and that I should share it with you all. Thank you Kitsune.

Dear Adult Swim,

I am Kitsune Kit, founder and CEO of Kitsune Gaming Company. I have known Charles McCarthy for quite some time now, and I say that you will never find a person more competent and hard working. Charles McCarthy would be a fine addition to any business and I think that he would be a great employee for you to have. I have always known him to be punctual and professional, but don't let this fool you; He is more creative than anyone I have ever met. Charles McCarthy's ideas are fresh and inventive and I would love to have him on my staff at my company, but he has declined my offers in hopes of working for your Adult Swim HQ in Atlanta, GA.

Some Advice

2006-02-02T15:43:00.000-05:00

I just got this email from Les B.

"My son asked me how he could get a job at Midway Games. I told him to put on his resume these words opnly.

I am 22 years old. I have my education. I do not use drugs. I am ready to rock and roll. He is now in Chicago working at Midway Games."

I think this is pretty good advice, so here goes.

My name is Charles McCarthy. I am 26 years old. I have my education. I do not use drugs. I am ready to rock and roll!

Thanks Les.

Hot or Not - Serial Killer Looks That Could Kill

2006-02-02T01:50:00.000-05:00

Well, I tried to put some propaganda up on HotorNot.com, but they didn't like my pictures that said that Adult Swim should hire me, so I put up my best 70's-serial-killer-mug-shot-American-Apparel-Vice-Magazine picture instead. You can join in the stupidity that is HotorNot.com by clicking here to rate me.

Just now, on a hunch, I checked out NotorHot.com and put up the picture that I originally wanted up on HotorNot.com. You can check out that picture and send it to friends and lovers to rate by clicking here.

Well, I have had enough of hots and nots.

State of Chuck's Chances

2006-02-02T00:04:00.000-05:00

The state of my chances to be hired by Adult Swim are good. For all of you who have just joined the cause and all of you who are thinking about joining the cause but think I have no chance of getting a job, and that I am a total nut, to date I have had three interviews with Adult Swim. My first interview was a phone interview. The woman who interviewed me had me on speaker phone, and every time I would talk she would shuffle papers in such a way that it sounded like she was snickering at me. My second interview with several Adult Swim producers went very well, I think. The jury is still out on my third interview with the creators of Squidbillies and 12oz. Mouse. I think it went well, but we didn't go have beers together after the interview. I sent them several writing and drawing samples, to which I had some positive feedback.

This is where you come in, you, my fellow citizens of the world, you, the people who watch TV, you who care whether or not a nice creative guy gets a job. You can tip the scales. You can load the deck. You can make this happen for me. Sign my petition. Write an email to Adult Swim. Run naked through the streets with "Hire Charles McCarthy," written across your chest, or better yet, tattooed. It really is crunch time, go time...right now! Reach deep down inside of yourselves and muster up the energy needed to click your mouse a couple of times and type in a few words. So, get on the phone and call your friends, (you were going to do it anyway) and tell them to call all their friends and tell them to tell them to tell them to tell Adult Swim to hire Charles McCarthy!

Adult Swim Should Hire Charles McCarthy

2006-02-01T21:24:00.000-05:00

Get Them!

I personally would like to thank you all for keeping up with this here blog. You may realize by now that Charles is a very persistant young man. What you may not realize yet, however, is that he has a heart of gold.

No, seriously. I'm not being sentimental here. The dude's heart is formed of solid gold. Imagine, if you will, all the health problems that may cause. Imagine living with a body entirely crafted of synthetic skin and muscles that don't need blood to survive. Do you think you could even stand the operations that necessitates? Much less the everyday torture of living with a fake body all because your heart was formed of solid gold so some sick creator could amuse himself?! And don't even get me started on the numerous pirate raids he's survived.

So next time you think, "Who cares? Who cares if Charles McCarthy gets a job with Adult Swim?" Think again, think about the sheer resolve it takes to persist in Charles's condition. Think about it, be honest with yourself, and realize that you are inferior to him.

CHARLES MCCARTHY IN '06!

A New "Hire Charles McCarthy" Comic

2006-01-31T23:52:00.000-05:00

I know you have all been waiting for it, and here it is, the latest "Hire Charles McCarthy" comic strip by Hugo Ballz of hugoballz.com. I think it is maybe a little needy and pandering, but I still appreciate the art.

On a sad note, my arch nemesis Alex C. has fallen very far in my opinion. His witty comments and insults of old have degenerated into racial slurs and curses.

Again, I ask all of you to keep Alex C. in your thoughts and prayers to whatever higher power you believe in.

Alex,

Please go to the doctor. I think you might have a brain tumor that is cutting off blood to important parts of your brain.

Happy Time

2006-01-31T10:51:00.000-05:00

The movie "Our Time Is Up," a short film that my friend Pia Clemente produced has been nominated for an Oscar, which as some of you may know, is pretty major and exciting. I have a pretty strong feeling that she is going to win.

“Our Time Is Up”
A Station B Production
Rob Pearlstein and Pia Clemente

If you are putting money on the Oscars, bet on this film, but don't put too much money on it and them blame me later if you don't win.

Good Luck Pia!

The Waiting Game

2006-01-30T22:18:00.000-05:00

I am still waiting for news, but I am not sitting around on my thumbs. I am shopping around a short comedy that my campaign manager Erni and I wrote (it's a Zach Galifianakis vehicle), and I am also working on creating a new prime time drama. I also talked with the reporter from the Red & Black again tonight. She is working on a new angle. I am also getting ready for my art show coming up in March at the Sabra Gallery in East Atlanta. Yes, I am waiting, but still working, plugging away.

No word from Patrick Swayze yet either.

Again, thank you all for your support, keep up the good work. It ain't over till it's over.

Up To Date Update

2006-01-28T19:52:00.000-05:00

Once again, I have received many emails from concerned supporters questioning the fact that there wasn't an article about me in the Red & Black this Friday. I am not really sure why the article didn't appear. I think they are trying to push it back until I get or don't get a job.

As far as the job goes, I have not had any word yet.

My Open Letter To Patrick Swayze

2006-01-26T16:21:00.000-05:00

This is my open letter to Patrick Swayze. Feel free to repost it, and send it around, especially if Patrick Swayze is on your list serve.

Dear Patrick,

Let me introduce myself. My name is Charles McCarthy. You may have seen some of my other posts on Craig's List. Recently I have been campaigning to be hired by Adult Swim. I am writing to you for two reasons.

First, to tell you that "Road House" is an amazing movie. I am surprised every time I see it. I don't think that I am the first person to think this, and some studio exec will probably read this and steal my idea, but someone should make a sequel to "Road House," something like "Road House 2: The Next Day" or "Road House 2: More New Blood." You and Doc have been married for a while. She decides to go to Malaysia to help with the ongoing recovery efforts in the wake of the tsunami. You go with her. The town that you go to is a port whose local hotspot attracts tourists, locals, sailors, and to the chagrin of everyone, pirates. While the Doc is busy treating kids for malaria, you are treating Malaysian pirates to a butt whooping. I know it seems like a tall order for you to take on an entire gang of Malaysian pirates by yourself, so even though I know you could take them all by yourself, you get help from a local hot shot fighter with a rocky past similar to your own played by Erni Banks. I think it might be pretty cool if Billy Blanks, playing himself, stopped through the town on vacation and helped you out in one of the fights, but left quickly after the fight, telling you that you were crazy for staying and fighting Malaysian pirates.

Second, I was wondering if you could endorse me in my campaign to be hired by Adult Swim. You can write a small letter and send it to me, and I will put it up on my my blog adultswimshouldhirecharlesmccarthy.blogspot.com and it would be great if you could sign my petition. I don't think you need to kill anyone with your bare hands.

Oh, and if you happen to know Zach Galifianakis, please let him know that I have a script that my friend Erni Crews and I wrote just for him that I really want him to read. Thank you for your time, and I can't wait to see "Road House 2."

Sincerely,

Charles McCarthy

Another "Hire Charles McCarthy" Comic

2006-01-26T12:27:00.000-05:00

You have all been waiting for it, and here it is, the latest "Hire Charles McCarthy" comic by my good friend Hugo Ballz. This is a very uplifting one isn't it? You can find more comics by Hugo Ballz at HugoBallz.com.

Today I am going to write some open letters to Patrick Swayze, asking him for his support in my cause, so if you know Patrick Swayze, or you are Patrick Swayze, get in touch with me.

Keep up the good work. Keep writing the emails and signing the petition!

Road House

2006-01-26T00:07:00.000-05:00

I know that it might seem slightly off topic, but I have to talk about this. I just saw the movie "Road House," staring Patrick Swayze. Wow! Wow!! I had seen it before, and I will never forget such great lines as, "Pain don't hurt," but man, there are more jewels of bad dialogue in "Road House," than diamonds in South Africa, and more pointless scenes than LA in general. However, an amazing thing about "Road House" is the fact that the performances offered up by it's cast are probably the best that could ever be expected considering the writing, probably better. An even more amazing thing about "Road House," is that you cannot stop watching it. If you watch five minutes of "Road House," you will watch all of "Road House." You cannot stop. I dare any of you to start watching "Road House," and try to stop half way through. You can't.

Please, please, think of me as Patrick Swayze, and think of yourselves as the towns people rallying around me at the end of "Road House," or maybe you could think of me as Patrick Swayze and network television is the town that I have to clean up, or best yet, think of me as Patrick Swayze and Adult Swim as the road house in "Road House," and it's where I belong.

"All's quiet on the Western front"

2006-01-25T23:38:00.000-05:00

It seems a lot's been happening since I last posted. I've been busy busy busy with my own doings, including getting my own blog up and running. But I have been watching. Oh yes, just in case things got a bit out of control but matters seem to be well in hand.

I have to say, Charles has had some good things happening on the campaign front but he might want to stay away from power tools for a while- it would be a shame to be right on the cusp but then suffer some sort of weird mishap worthy of a drummer in Spinal Tap....

And it's nice to see Alex C is still out there tilting at windmills and hurling his vitriol. He lends a certain balance to the proceedings with his unhinged ravings and unbridled hatred- much the same way Bush needs Bin Ladin, we need Alex. He keeps us from getting fat and complacent and makes each step forward that much sweeter. Keep the insults and slams coming and remember- every time you jack off, god kills another kitten.

Pushed Back

2006-01-25T19:20:00.000-05:00

I know many of you were disappointed when you didn't see a glorious article about me in the Red & Black. Don't send any death threats to them though or start planning some sort of attack on their printing press. The article was simply pushed back to Friday, so look for it on Friday.

I was kind of upset too, but I am now more excited than ever to read the article, and I did receive a nice surprise today from Robert Bailey. He has created a very nice art film about me. It took a long time to load for me, so be patient. Check it out by going to his website, RobertBaileyDesign.com. Thank you Robert for your contribution to the cause.

Also, for those of you interested in my fine art, my biography page is now up for the art show that I am having in March at the Sabra Gallery. If your heart truly aches to find out more about me, where I am from, why I am an artist, and what I am thinking, you can go to SabraGallery.com and read all about me and see a couple of samples of my work.

I hope you have all been keeping my arch nemesis Alex C. in your hearts and minds. His decline seems to be continuing at a steady pace. Let's all hope that it isn't permanent.

As always, continue to email Adult Swim and to sign the petition and keep being awesome.

Red & Black Article

2006-01-24T17:44:00.000-05:00

Still no word back from Adult Swim, but I am really looking forward to reading the article about my campaign in tomorrow's Red & Black. I know you are all scrambling to figure out how you can get to Athens, Ga by tomorrow to pick up a copy of the Red & Black, and I have good news for you. You don't have to go to Athens to pick up a hard copy of the Red & Black because it is online. You can read the article and feel proud to be part of something by going to RedAndBlack.com tomorrow. They might run this picture of me that was taken by my good friend Mack Williams when we were in Mexico last year to see RCPM. By the way, I don't smoke. I was holding that cigarette for our sherpa Maggie, without whom, I don't know what we would have done.

How Did The Interview Go?

2006-01-24T02:39:00.000-05:00

I have had many emails asking how my interview went, and I am sorry that I haven't updated you all sooner. My interview went well. It was much more dramatic than the last one, mainly just because most of the lights were off in the room. This interview was with the creators of 12oz. Mouse and Squidbillies, and I am happy to report that they all seemed like good guys.

Yes, my interview went pretty well, but I can't say the same for the rest of my day. Stabbed my finger with a drill bit. I hit my head on a sharp corner of my desk, and my car broke down. Yep, the rest of my day did not go so well, up until I found out that there will be an article about me in UGA's award winning student newspaper, The Red & Black.

One last thing before I go, I would like you all to pray to whatever higher power you believe in, or if you don't believe in one, maybe do some scientific research for my arch nemesis Alex C. I think he is really feeling under the weather. His taunting rhetoric has really slipped over the last couple of days in a dramatic and almost Flowers-For-Algernonesque way. Keep fighting Alex.

Adult Swim Should Hire Charles McCarthy

2006-01-23T17:11:00.000-05:00

Kids, now is the time to ban together. Charles needs us more than ever. Since I am the re-re on West Coast time, it's highly likely that he's already had his Adult Swim interview today, and thus I would like to retro-actively send him a shit ton of positive energy. Many of you may not have known until this very second that positive energy could be measured in tons, but it can, and shit tons at that.

I'm done wasting your time for today, but rest assured I will not sleep or eat or even breathe until Charles McCarthy has his much-deserved job at Adult Swim! GET THEM CHARLES. Get Them.

Big Day Tomorrow

2006-01-22T23:20:00.000-05:00

Well, it is a big day tomorrow. I have another interview at Adult Swim, so I encourage you to all keep your fingers crossed, and those of you talented in such things, your toes.

I hurt my thumb this weekend playing basketball, and I really hope it doesn't affect my interview.

Here is a haiku to thank you all for all of your help.

I would just like to take a moment to thank all of you and all of my amazing staff. I don't know if I could have kept going without all of you and all of your support. It's not over. We have to keep working hard. We can't stop now.

Here is a poem to thank all of you who have taken the time to write to Adult Swim and sign my petition.

Gold
by
Charles McCarthy

I wish I could find some gold
so that I could hold it
in my hand and freak out
like some old man with a
beard and an old pan
I wish I could find some gold
Would I jump up and down?
Would I go yeeehaw?
Or would I grumble and gaffaw
and run and hide worried
that people were looking
to stick a knife in my side
I have seen it so many times
Gold fever in the movies
and in the country side.
I saw a show about a guy
who did speed and dug a mine
in his back yard thinking
that there was gold in thar
He didn't find any gold but
he planted some to make
his cracked out friends continue
to dig.
Then he stole a tank.
I want to feel that kind of dedication to a metal.

I know some of you have been on the edge of your seats, wondering how my second interview at Adult Swim went. Well, it didn't happen. My meeting had to be pushed to Monday. Be assured that I will let you all know what happens as soon as I get done, and I am sorry that I kept you all biting your nails.

Remember to keep the emails coming and to sign my petition if you haven't already.

2006-01-19T15:52:00.000-05:00

Greetings from sunny California! It is, indeed, sunny today, with gusty winds and a chance of disillusionment.

Although The City of Angels doesn't know it yet, they are about to become Mr. McCarthy's number one fans. Soon as that helicopter full of tootsie rolls lets the bottom drop out, this'll be one delicious campaign you can't say no to.

Get ready Los Angeles, here comes the brown!...I mean, the chocolate! Wait, if I could just start that over again...

Get ready Los Angeles, here comes Charles McCarthy all over your face!

I'd like to go ahead and formally retract that statement.

CHARLES MCCARTHY IN '06!

Lots of news. LOTS! First, this kick ace t-shirt design was designed for me by Keith Dillon. I think he is going to have shirts with it on them for sale soon, and be sure to check out all his other interesting shirt designs here. Second, I had an interview with a reporter today from a pretty well read newspaper. They are thinking about doing a piece on me and my campaign. Third, Chez from Lonely Island sent me this encouraging email in response to an email that I wrote him asking for help:

"abso-fucking-lutely! you deserve the world mr. mcCarthy and I intend to give it to you on a gold-plated platter."

Thanks Chez. Please take over SNL completely.

Fourth, last, but definitely not least, I have another interview at Adult Swim tomorrow.

You guys are all great, keep up the good work. Now is not the time to rest. Keep your emails coming. Thank you all, especially you Alex C. You complete me, not in Jerry Maguire kind of way, but more of an evil-twin-yin-yang kind of way. You are the dark to my light, and that means something, so thank you.

2006-01-17T23:07:00.000-05:00

Here is yet another great installment of "Hire Charles McCarthy." I think that this one really clears up a lot of questions that we might have all been having from the last couple of strips. Again, this comic was created for me by my good friend Hugo Ballz of hugoballz.com.

Keep up the emails to Adult Swim, and be sure to sign the petition if you haven't already.

2006-01-17T15:38:00.000-05:00

Ah, greetings all. Apparently while I was off enjoying a lovely holiday, all hell has broken loose here. Everybody's favorite psycho, Alex C, has been stirring up the pot again and creating mischief.

Now, mind you, as self-annointed 'Provocateur General' of the campaign to get Charles hired on at Adult Swim, I am not necessarily opposed to a bit of muckraking. Au contraire. But it all depends upon whether one is the muckee or the mucker.

So our little Alex seems to be in the throes of a little jealousy tantrum. Perhaps he feels his job is being threatened. Or maybe he suffers from some sort of hormonal deficiency and cannot grow hair and the sight of Charles' throwback facial hair has touched upon a sore nerve.

Whatever the reason, he has taken it upon himself to go after Charles. "You vil follow ze RULES, seig heil!!" not realizing the well-placed irony of someone breaking with normal constraints and niceties in applying for a job with a group whose programming seeks to break the constraints of good taste and go outside the lines.

Ah, just look on in with concern upon his little fits of anger, stalking Charles across the web, seeking to defame him at every step in what amounts to a very unhealthy example of homoerotic fixation. It's ok, Alex. We understand. Come out of the closet, release your inner woman, whatever. These are brave new times and odds are that Georgia has progressed to the point where you won't be lynched for such things. There's places up in Buckhead that'll welcome you with open arms and provided the nurturing environment you so obviously need.

Hells yeah, man. Just put on the late Freddy Mercury's song "I've Got To Be Free", throw on a pair of women's underwear, and be the real you that's struggling to get out and manifesting its displeasure with being repressed by attacking total strangers in a prime example of misplaced self-loathing.

Do it. You have nothing to lose but your chains, although you may want to keep them just because fashion is all about accessorizing. Throw on a pair of stripper heels, hop on up to Buckhead, and all the rest will fall into place and you'll thank us later.

I have discovered the root of my arch nemesis Alex C.'s hatred and anger towards me. I am kind of disappointed that it boils down to simple envy and jealousy. I was hoping to find out that I had somehow unknowingly killed his cat or something. Apparently someone wants a job at Adult Swim too, and his name is Alex C. and he is upset that he didn't think to start his own grass roots campaign for a job there. Read his post on Wikapedia and tell me what you think:

"Vanity material. The guy is a freakin' joke. He wants to be hired by Adult Swim without going through the turnerjobs.com website that 99.9% of people hired by the company have to/have had to/must go through. Actually, if you want to be technical, he'd be hired by Time Warner, then placed into their Cartoon Network division, then eventually filtered into a position for Adult Swim (like the Junior Writer position or Flash Animation position or whatever). But at any rate, it's just some dork with a beard trying to stand out in the crowd and hoping like Hell that it works enough to find him a job at Adult Swim as . . . well, I don't really know what he wants to do. If you look at his resume I'm guessing some sort of animator job.
At any rate, I deleted the links -- and I don't doubt he put them up himself in the first place. What a dweeb, and a LAZY dweeb at that. I can admire his iniative, but as one who wants to work for Adult Swim myself, and who has no "connections" inside -- thus being forced to whore out through the turnerjobs.com site and go up against hundreds, if not thousands of applications -- I think he's a douchebag for even trying this. I've stated as such to him in e-mail, and he took it as a joke. Go figure. I don't see any reason to put the links back in, unless he gets hired by them, in which case perhaps put them back in to show "hey, here's some dumbass who made himself stand out and be noticed by Adult Swim by ACTING like a dumbass." For now, they're gone. -"

The only other thing I can possibly deduce from this is that he might be the turnerjobs.com web master because he has mentioned turnerjobs.com in every single letter to me. Maybe he is angry because he feels like he has been usurped and sees his power as turnerjobs.com's web master humbled by my grass roots campaign. But, I think this is highly unlikely.

Keep up the good work people. Spread the word. Keep the emails coming. And, Alex C. you keep on hating me. If I had an arch nemesis like you in college, I probably would have been student body president.

2006-01-16T23:53:00.000-05:00

Here is yet another installment of the comic strip about me "Hire Charles McCarthy" by Hugo Ballz of hugoballz.com I hope you enjoy it. I think it is a continuation of the last on. Maybe it will make things clearer.

2006-01-16T22:56:00.000-05:00

Please post this places and email it to your friends and family. Thank you all for your support.

2006-01-16T02:16:00.000-05:00

Here is another encouraging letter from my arch nemesis Alex C. It sounds like somebody got up on the wrong side of the bed today. I know it is all just touch love Alex, and I can take it. I love you too. Here is the email. Check it out:

Hello there dumbass. I see you had an "interview"
with Adult Swim. I'm sure you were a popular topic of
conversation after you left. "Hey, did you see that
retard Charles McCarthy? Guy looks like a fucking
pedophile, or maybe a Waffle House cook who forgot to
shave last night! AH, HA HA HA HAAA! Hey! Let's make a
character out of him on the new Harvey Birdman we're
working on! There won't be shit he can do about it,
because it'll be parody! Fucking dweeb! Can you
believe he wanted a job here?"

I'm sure it wasn't as bad as that. They probably
called you a dork rather than a dweeb.

I see by doing a Google search on your name that you
have been spamming the holy hell out of craigslist.
Yea, I'm sure Time Warner really wants a KNOWN
INTERNET SPAMMER working for them. Great move, idiot.
Oh, and I removed the links to your blog and petition
off of the Wikipedia entry on Adult Swim. Nice try,
Mr. Mensa, but Wikipedia -- much like myself -- hates
vandals.

Rot in Hell, you greasy bastard.

2006-01-15T11:51:00.000-05:00

Here is another "Hire Charles McCarthy" comic strip by Hugo Ballz of hugoballz.com. I am not exactly sure what he is trying to say with this. I guess he is trying to tell Adult Swim that no mater how you look at me, I am attractive in one way or another. I don't know. I am still not sure why I have gray hair either, but such is art. Is his a mind of madness or a big gushing sack of genius? Only time will tell.

Please keep your emails to Adult Swim coming, and if you haven't signed my petition yet, please sign it.

You are all beautiful in one way or another.

Charles McCarthy's Facial Hair Garners Applause!

Let's face the facts, people. There are literally hundreds of hard-working folks with the comedic ability and resume to get jobs with Adult Swim. Thousands, maybe! (That may be overstepping it. I apologize.)

But do any of those people have the tenacity to grow such alluring facial hair? If you answered with a resounding "NO!" then you are correct, and shall be rewarded with a clear conscience. Those of you who did not answer with a resounding "NO!" will never again see the light of day as a moral human being who contributes to society in a way that enhances the lives of those around you.

The voice of the people has spoken, and it says, "Give us Chesterfields* or give us Death!" A vote for Charles McCarthy is a vote for the Chesterfield. And a vote for the Chesterfield is a vote for a stronger America.

Tonight, boys & girls, it's Tunes From The Apocalypse 101.

I'm feeling saucy tonight. Our man Charles had his interview, which turned out to be legit after all. And I just returned home from seeing The Rolling Stones.

Go ahead- write them off as decrepit old geezers and instead suck up the schlock disguised as music that's spoon-fed to you by MTV. At least the Stones write and play their own fucking music. Go ahead and buy your rebellion at the local mall, Keith Richards can roll and smoke one of those little pseudo rebel suburban snotnoses with one hand while hitting the opening chords to Jumpin Jack Flash with his other. Last time I saw the Stones, at the end of a 2+ hour show, Jagger sprinted from one end of the stage (about 200') to the other WHILE SINGING and left his bodyguard, a guy in his mid-30s, doubled over and sucking wind from trying to keep up with him.

Fuck it. Tonight the weasels have been driven out of the temple with "Midnight Rambler" blasting from the speakers.

All is good and right with the world. That is All Ye Need To Know. At least for now.

2006-01-13T18:55:00.000-05:00

I know what you are thinking, and I do look pretty good in corduroy, but check out this hat that I got! No, I didn't get hired yet, so don't stop the campaign. I still need your help.

This is the last push. Don't give up on me now!

2006-01-13T14:25:00.000-05:00

I had the interview, and it was real Adult Swim people, and no ninjas tried to jump me on my way into the interview. I think it went well, but that still doesn't mean that the fight is over. Keep emailing Adult Swim. Keep singing the protest songs that you have all written or appropriated from other movements. Keep up the graffiti campaign in Istanbul. I know you guys are really putting your necks out for me.

If we shout loud enough, we will be heard. Keep shouting!

2006-01-13T13:45:00.000-05:00

Thank you Steve Z. for your nurturing skepticism. While I do not think that my job interview today is a hoax, the battle is still not yet won. Alex C. could very well have been listening to my conversation and be planning on kidnapping me and showing up at the interview himself and blowing the interview for me with lots of small talk about a porn that he just rented called Mary Poopins. I don't know. Anything could happen. Keep the emails coming! Even if they really like me today, that doesn't mean that they might not really like someone else just a little more. Thank you all for your efforts and keep up the good work!

2006-01-12T22:19:00.000-05:00

While there is general rejoicing here in the ASSHCM community regarding the news that Charles has an interview tomorrow, I admit to a degree of skepticism and would like to quote Mr Wolf in 'Pulp Fiction' and warn that it's too early to start sucking each others' dicks just yet.

As you can see from the comment made on my previous post, CM has some rather determined and extremely psychotic enemies who I believe would stop at nothing to cause harm to our Fearless Leader. It is not outside the realm of my twisted little imagination to be concerned that this might be a set-up.

I have no knowledge of the exact manner by which this interview was set up. Email? IP addresses can be spoofed. If you don't believe me, answer one of those supposed emails from Ebay asking you to validate your account information and find out how long it takes for mail-order Russian brides to show up on your credit card statement. A phone call? Please, even a 6 year old can crank-call. My point being, all our great telecommunication advances have yet to solve the basic question of 100% secure validated connections for all.

This may come off as sounding paranoid, but just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you. I double-dog dare you to ring up your friendly local kabob shop run by a couple of Muslim dudes and request one of their 'special' kabobs for delivery. Your communications will be intercepted, screened, parsed, and determined to be a coded message to Al Qaeda and quick as a wink you'll be disappeared in the middle of the night to Gitmo which will make Abu Ghraib look like a day at Wally World.

This is why I have a number of elaborate defense systems here at Chez Stevie Z. These are not times in which to remain passive and trusting in others to provide for your security. No, one must stock up on guns, kevlar, concussion grenades, gas masks, and tear gas cannisters because when it's 4am and there's a mob kicking down your door, calling the police is an exercise in futility. All that will happen is either the tape machine will 'malfunction' and there will be no record of your call or your call will be part of an 'Unsolved Mystery' episode.

Prepare for the worst, hope for the best. This will be our mantra as we wish our Fearless Leader godspeed. Stay alert, beware of any black sedans with tinted windows, and always leave yourself at least 2 escape routes.

2006-01-12T12:32:00.000-05:00

Yes! Things are certainly looking up. The movement continues to grow. Steve Z. sure has shaken things up here at campaign headquarters with his hardline, in-your-face, approach to the task at hand, getting me a job at Adult Swim.

No one, Alex C., and nothing, the decline of western civilization, can stop me now!

Thank you all for your support and keep up the good work! Keep the emails to Adult Swim coming! Keep signing the petition! Keep thinking about buying a shirt or hat that says "hire charles mccarthy" on it!

2006-01-11T21:36:00.000-05:00

Hello everyone. Please allow me to introduce myself. I am Stevie Z, self-proclaimed Provocateur General of the campaign to get Charles McCarthy hired by Adult Swim.

Why should they hire him? Let's just say that as much as we love the folks at Adult Swim to death, there are certain shows that are not all that strong. No names mentioned, but when a roomful of 30-something regressed stoners rocked off their asses on killer bud fail to find humor in it, that's saying quite a bit. We.... I mean they... found a dust ball dug out from under the couch by the cat more fascinating. And I'm telling you dawg, when you can't keep us them amused, your demographic has gone straight out the door and your advertisers will bolt, leaving you to fill in all those commercial breaks with anti-drug PSAs. Which, btw, are even more hysterical when you're stoned.

So why hire Charles McCarthy? Why the hell not? Good god people, look at his work. The man is a frickin' genius. It's sheer poetry on a level not seen since they shot Manson full of thorazine. Oh sure, you might look at his stuff and snort in derision, incapable of grasping the brilliance of it. But if he came to you five years ago telling you he had an idea for a 'toon based on a large fry, shake, and an indeterminate wad of meat, you would have sent for security. Now Aqua Teen Hunger Force is HUGE and you would be toasting him as a visionary and sacrificing babies in his honor.

But with certain other programs, not so much. We can do better. We deserve better. And Charles is the man who can deliver better.

Another reason to hire Charles. He's a desperate and dangerous man. He has made veiled threats and I suspect he may well have gone off his meds. If you use a jpeg decoder and scan several of his pics, you will see what I mean. I am begging you to please please please at least humor him until corraborating evidence gathered by the good folks at Homeland Security can be sent along. I understand that it will be accompanied by a super-secret Presidential Directive in honor of 1/13/02, the day when an Al Qaeda operative, disguised as a pretzel, attempted to choke the President to death during the NFL playoffs.

So you see, grave National Security issues are at stake here, and your failure to ACT NOW means that the terrorists have won. But there's still hope. Help us, Obi Wan. Help us.

Great news! I talked to the people at Adult Swim that said that they had never heard of me, and now they definitely know who I am, but that is not the best part. The best part is that if they didn't know anything about me, then one of you good people must have gotten me the phone interview that I had, and for that, I thank you one and all.

This is a picture of my lady friend when she was about ten years old, and her little sister.

Keep up the good work!

2006-01-09T19:47:00.000-05:00

Today I found out about a minor setback in my quest to be hired by Adult Swim. I found out that they have never heard of me. I know. I know some of you probably lost faith in me just now. Some of you just gave up. Some of you think that it is hopeless. I know that is what some of you are thinking, but you have to stop thinking like that. I used to think like that, and it got me nowhere really, I worked in a bar called Nowhere Bar. You have to be positive.

2006-01-09T00:15:00.000-05:00

I have finally gotten my internet at home straightened out, so now I can update by blog from home. This is a digital art piece about my struggle to be hired by Adult Swim by the artist Andres. It is titled, "just hire the guy." I think he perfectly captures my retro yet hip soul and the turbulence in my life.

I think I might hear something from Adult Swim tomorrow. I have a strange feeling. Thank you all for your support.

Sorry it has been so long since I have posted something. I have been having trouble getting on blogger from my home computer. There isn't much news, but apparently my comic, "Hire Charles McCarthy," is a big hit with the "kids."

Here they are folks, the first panels of the comic about me "Hire Charles McCarthy." There may be some tweaking going on with the character design etc. but I am pretty pumped. This comic was created by my good friend, a very talented young man Hugo Ballz. Be sure to check out his website HugoBallz.Com for more of his comic stylings. He is also quite the marketer, so you may soon be able to buy some "Hire Charles McCarthy" shoes or soap or something from his website. Be sure to check back with me for the latest "Hire Charles McCarthy" comic.

Good News folks!

First, my good friend Hugo has decided to draw a cartoon strip about my life. It will be kind of like "American Splendor" but better because my life is crazy. It will be about the last two years of my life leading up to me getting a job at Adult Swim. Check out HugoBallz.Com and check back with me. I will be putting the cartoon up on my blog every week.

Second, people at Adult Swim are starting to take notice of my campaign. Here is a letter from my number one fan Alex C. Alex is a little upset about some things going on in his own life right now, but if you knew him the way that I know him, you would see that he is very excited for me. His letter reads:

"Adult Swim will never hire you because you are a whiny
douchebag, Chuck. You are annoying everyone on
craigslist with your stupid and pathetic grovelling
and even an employee of Adult Swim made a post
laughing at you. I posted a link to your original
plea for attention way back when a month or so ago to
the Adult Swim message board -- you got nothing but
scorn and mockery.

You are one sad bastard. Just because you are too
underqualified or stupid to make it past the keyword
scanner on the turnerjobs/brassring Turner employment
site, you have to go and ruin other peoples' days with
your mumblings. I really hope you are in an accident
that leaves you in a coma so those people who wish you
would shut up could get their wish."

Thanks you Alex, and keep up the good work. We shall overcome.

Apparently some people still don't believe in the power of the people. I got this email from "Eric" today. He doesn't seem to believe that TV networks care what their audience thinks. Although I tend to agree with "Eric" to a certain degree, I don't think any institution can ignore a tightly organized grass roots movement for very long. "Eric" would have probably told Gandhi that no empire would give up it's colonial hold on India just because he refused to eat. He wrote:

"I do not like you. That is not reverse psychology, that is straight up.

It may seem like the all-american thing to do, to get a job by sheer force of perseverance and making a pest out of ones self, but what if you are wrong and you are wasting all this time and just annoying people with your posts? The truth of this scenario seems obvious to everyone but you.

The idea the at the customer is always right applies only up to a point. The tiny, miniscule percentage of people who BOTH view the show and sign your petition will not be convincing. The percentage of those who would BOTH sign your petition and actually boycott the show should you not be hired will be effectively zero. Thus you have no leverage. The sooner you realize this the better. When a major media conglomerate goes searching for employees, it will not be from the ranks of the desperate wannabes.

Please stop. I'm sure I speak for the masses of craigslist readers. Go away."

Thank you "Eric." I was actually starting to feel slightly daunted by my quest, but you have given me new inspiration. I have to give you, "Eric," something to believe in again.

2005-12-26T17:15:00.000-05:00

Wow! Now look what I have now, my own line clothing line. I think it all just screams, "HIRE ME." What do you think? If anything will get Adult Swim's attention, it will be this.

No, not because all of the Adult Swim employees will want a cool hat or shirt or magnet that says "[hire charles mccarthy]," but because the Turner lawyers will probably send me some sort of cease and desist order in a couple of days, sighting some form of copyright infringement or something, so get em while they are hot. Also, don't forget to write to Adult Swim to tell them to hire me, and to sign my petition.

Adult Swim Should Hire Charles McCarthy Store

2005-12-26T12:14:00.000-05:00

First, let me say Merry Christmas to everyone and also Happy Holidays. I hope you all are having a better holiday season than me.

Now to the good news. It seems like I might have a stalker. I am so excited! Like any stalker he seems confused about his sexuality, his intentions towards me, but is completely and totally obsessed with me. I am not sure what his name is. I hope it is something cute but nothing with three names. We all know what that would mean. Here is the letter he sent me via Craig's List:

"I've seen some desperate posters, but dude..you are in each town, in each section..annoying the shit out of everyone.If you can't get on it on your own, this may be the reason..you are simply very ANNOYING. I personally liked it much better when you worked for Liberty Curio. I watched your ebay auctions..some pretty ccol stuff..especially the horse fetuses in the tanks..weird. Oh and the guy that bought them, I looked at the kind of stuff he bought, I'm sure he was a serial killer or a wannabe, cuz he had some strange things he bought, but then you KNOW that. Give this 'Adult Swim' thing up Chucky..go back to Ebay and other endeavors..and PLEASE quit bugging us!
Peace dude"

Thank you stalker. You don't know how much it means to me to have a stalker of my own, and a good stalker who has been following me for a while, taking notes meticulously on my career. Please feel free to sign my petition, or chant my name while you run around naked in your basement.

Several people have made known their belief that Time Warner and in turn Turner and again in turn Cartoon Network and hence Adult Swim do not care and will not care about my petition.

A person calling himself "psymon" wrote, "It's a novel idea, but you forget one thing, A petition means squat in the corporate world. Ted Turner won't hire you Charlie, tough luck.Move on to the next job."

Someone else calling himself "Patricmoses" said, "hey guy, hate to breakit to you but [as] dosent give
a rats **bleep** about you. or anyone for that matter."

This was my response to both of them:

"You are wrong. Why are you wrong? It boils down to a very simple and cliche saying, 'The customer is always right.' You are all Adult Swim customers, and if enough of you feel a certain way, Adult Swim will bend to your desires. This is why they actually look at the message boards every once in a while. If it was up to just one person, especially a person who has a history of being persnickety like Ted Turner, he could just decide that he was going to ignore everyone. A corporation won't do that, especially one that is publicly traded like Time Warner. A corporation that is publicly owned is inherently democratic."

Television networks do care about what their watchers think. If they didn't care about what watchers thought, their would be no ratings, no surveys, no focus groups to determine what to put on and when.

Help me out. Sign my petition or email Adult Swim and tell them to hire me.

2005-12-21T16:58:00.000-05:00

I have been getting some great feedback from people. Here is a very nice and uplifting one from Mike.

"Dude, You are such a loser. Quit wasting everybodies time with your pathetic pleas to intervene and help you land a job with Adult Swim. Take a hint, they don't want you so go away. Show a little class."

Thanks Mike. I appreciate your reverse psychology. I will keep it up and going strong. Thanks for the tough love.

It is going to be a long hard battle!

2005-12-21T15:58:00.000-05:00

I have created the perfect holiday magical creature to stop all the talk of the war on Christmas, and to consolidate all the holiday traditions.

His name is Panda Clause. He is a panda bear who brings presents to everyone.

Everyone loves pandas.

2005-12-20T11:22:00.000-05:00

Yes! We finished shooting the commercials that I wrote yesterday. I am very pleased. We got some amazing footage of an old Indian man and also a bartender named Mezba. I am pretty sure that the job offers will start flying in once these commercials hit cable TV. I would like to think that one of those offers will be from Adult Swim.

None of you have heard anything about my job prospects at Adult Swim have you? You can tell me. I won't tell anyone.

I promise.

My commercials should be done in a couple of weeks. I will put them online with a link to them on here so that you can all check them out.

2005-12-19T09:27:00.000-05:00

Thank you all for your support. Still no news from Adult Swim. Keep up the good work though.

My commercial for Bamboo Garden is going well.

2005-12-17T00:29:00.000-05:00

Recently I added my name to Wikipedia. For those of you who are not familiar with Wikipedia, it is an online encyclopedia that is updated and edited by anyone who feels that it is their duty to do something like constantly edit and update an encyclopedia. Anyway, recently I added an entry about myself, Charles J. McCarthy III as there was not an entry for anyone named Charles J. McCarthy III. I saw no harm in adding an entry about myself because I exist and if there is no one else more important than me with the exact same name as me, what harm could come of it. I didn't say anything that was untrue or any more untrue than most of the history that children study in school about people long dead, but apparently the addition of my name to the Wikipedia upset someone because my listing was erased. I put it back and it was erased again. They also keep erasing the addition that I made to the Adult Swim definition:

For example, recently a man calling himself Charles J. McCarthy III has been actively campaigning to be hired by the network with marginal success. He posted a message on the Adult Swim message board that read, "Tell Adult Swim to hire me." Adult Swim responded with the message, "Sorry, we don't need anymore janitors."

Why is someone so upset about the prospect of the world knowing that I exist and something about some of my accomplishments? Are they trying to tell me that I don't exist? Are they scared that I will get a job at Adult Swim? I don't think we will ever know the answers to these questions especially if they are constantly being erased from Wikipedia. Luckily, they can't erase my blog, or at least I don't think that they can.

I guess I will have to keep adding myself to the history of the world according to Wikipedia.

2005-12-14T12:07:00.000-05:00

I took this picture, me, Charles McCarthy. Can this kind of comedic genius be ignored? How can Adult Swim ignore this? They can't.

2005-12-14T00:01:00.000-05:00

I am getting some help from some pretty high places, believe it or not, and my quest to be hired by Adult Swim is looking more and more promising, but for the next week or so I will be distracted from my quest. I have said it before, and I will say it again. I am producing two commercials for a Chinese restaurant called Bamboo Garden. It is owned and operated by Indians, from India, so it tastes like Chinese food in India. I am pretty excited about these commercials because I wrote them and I will be directing them. It is pretty awesome even though it probably won't get me any closer to getting a job at Adult Swim, or will it? Muhahaha! The best moves you can make in chess are both defensive and offensive at the same time.

2005-12-13T01:25:00.000-05:00

Guess what.

Yeah. Go ahead and guess.

You can't can you? You can't handle the pressure.

Fine, I'll tell you. I just finished a hard night of working on a funny funny funny movie that I am writing with my campaign manager, Erni Crews.

Do you have any funny movie ideas? Tell me. I won't steal them. I promise.

Fine! I don't trust you either and for that you get an angry picture of me at Tangstache 05.

For the record "Tamagotchi" is in the spell check on here, but, but, wait for it, "blog" is not.

Vote for me for Adult Swim. I am the better Chuck.

2005-12-12T20:55:00.000-05:00

My lady friend is becoming a cartoon character. It would be silly for me not to work at Adult Swim now.

What do you think I mean by this cryptic statement?

2005-12-11T22:37:00.000-05:00

Isn't this the sexiest woman you have ever seen? I think she is so beautiful. Isn't she beautiful? She is beautiful, and she doesn't just look smart. She is smart. She told me the other day that she really hopes I get a job at Adult Swim, and that it would make her very happy. Don't you want to make a beautiful woman happy?

2005-12-11T21:08:00.000-05:00

I was just watching All The Right Moves with Tom Cruise and Craig T. Nelson and came up with a new plan to make sure that I get a job at Adult Swim. I am going to roll Mike Lazzo's house, let him catch me and then be black balled from Adult Swim. Then I will see Mike at Waffle House and make a heart felt apology. When Mike tries to respond, I will tell him that he isn't god and I will run off down the street. Then I will get a job in a coal mine. Mike will think about his actions and realize that me rolling his house was actually pretty funny, then he will offer me a football scholarship to the college that he is going to coach at.

How does that plan sound to you all? I guess it doesn't get me a job at Adult Swim in the end, but I do get to go to college and play ball.

2005-12-11T16:51:00.000-05:00

I am already working possible new show pitches. If only I can get my foot in the door.

Imagine a world where the power of Voltron is twisted to Mumra's evil will with a spell that he casts on the Voltron team. The Thundercats are forced into underground caves, just like Afganistani freedom fighters(now called bad guys) in Rambo 3. They have to figure out a way to match up against the awesome power of Voltron. I don't want to ruin it for everyone, but I foresee lots of "Hoooooooos" and Panthro building a giant fighting robot to fight head to head with Voltron. Would the Sword of Omens get that big? Which would kick more ace in a fight? Will sight beyond sight help Liono reverse the spell on team Voltron? Will spirits of evil transform a decaying bag of bones into a villainous monster of awesome strength who is scared of his own reflection once again? Will robotic lions triumph over angelical cats (try comparing the Thundercats with cast members of Cats the musical), or will they dance their way out of yet another situation where Cheetara's sexiness is the only thing that can save the day? Will good overcome evil?

Hobo
by
Charles McCarthy

There aren't any hobos left
and if there are they are far
between if you know what I mean.
People like to talk about them still
and remember when
the hobos were real men.
But FDR got them all jobs
painting fences and murals on walls.
The hobos are all gone.

Some people as of late, and for many years have made fun of hobos. I can't say that there isn't something funny with the portrayals of hobos, but hobos were real people, displaced people, and in any other time or any other place they would have been called refugees. Or they could be seen as the last vestige of the American spirit, the restless energy and drive to keep moving, to keep searching for something better. Sometimes I feel like a hobo as I move, not across the country, but amongst social spheres, jobs, bars, and other aspects and dimensions of life.

2005-12-10T09:10:00.000-05:00

I bet you are wondering why I am up at 9am on a Saturday. Well, I have been up since around 8am. Besides trying to get a job at Adult Swim, I run a church basketball league. Why? I'm a fine upstanding young man, and I like basketball. I really wish I could be playing with the kids. I really love to play basketball. One of the things that I miss about college is basketball. I used to go play basketball 4-5 times a week for hours on end. I have played basketball with many different people, some of them are pretty famous now. Don't you wish you knew whom I am referring to?

2005-12-07T22:48:00.000-05:00

Besides trying to get Adult Swim to hire me, I am producing a couple of commercials for a Chinese Restaurant owned by Indians. It is called Bamboo Garden. I have been focusing on casting the actors. I am looking for an Indian man 20-30yrs old, a Chinese woman 20-30yrs old, and an old Indian man 65+yrs old. Easy right? No!

I have run into a brick wall where it comes to old Indian men. Apparently there are no old Indian men, and I mean Indian from India, who want to be on TV.

That makes me think of something else funny that I have run into. When I am asking people if they would like to be in a TV commercial, some people say no. Why would you ever turn down a chance to make money and be on TV unless you are wanted by the cops, and even then, you could be long gone before the commercial ever aired.

I was on Dawson's Creek once. Dawson is much better looking in person and Katie Holmes has a big scar on her neck right under her chin.

I thought I would throw that in just so that people who are big into Katie Holmes, who sit around googling her name, will find my blog and then they will discover that telling Adult Swim to hire me is a much more fulfilling pastime.

Always thinking. Don't ever stop thinking.

2005-12-07T17:21:00.000-05:00

I was starting to feel down but then I got this encouraging email from Sam.

"Hmmmmm no credentials to teach swimming, can ride bike but not have swam in years. Then again, I have room in east bay for someone sexy like you . I could use you as my personal aide, if you know what I mean and just to give you a bigger hint, it would be free room and board. Can you say ahhhh?

Cheers,

Sam"

Thanks Sam. I do know how important it is to smile in interviews, and to open your mouth and not mumble. I will try the voice exercises you suggested, and while I appreciate your offer, I have to be in Atlanta to work for Adult Swim.

2005-12-07T02:54:00.000-05:00

Guess who's campaign manager created an online petition for them...

It's me silly!

Click this if you agree with it and sign my petition!

To: Adult Swim
We the people of the world feel way down deep in our hearts that Charles McCarthy should work at Adult Swim, and we will not stop until we see him hard at work at Adult Swim. We believe that Charles McCarthy is by far the most qualified candidate, and we will not be ignored. There is no bridge we won't burn, no rock we won't turn, not channel on cable that we won't spurn to see Charles McCarthy in his rightful place at Adult Swim. Charles McCarthy is Adult Swim, and Adult Swim is Charles McCarthy. ADULT SWIM SHOULD HIRE CHARLES MCCARTHY TODAY!

No entity large or small can ignore the will of the people!

Tell Adult Swim how you feel.

Email Adult Swim

2005-12-06T21:00:00.000-05:00

I am feeling blue. I haven't heard from Adult Swim yet, and I am sick.

Speaking of "blue," my friend Justin was in the live action stage show of Blue's Clues. I bet you all saw it.

He played Slippery Soap. Sippery Soap is a giant bar of soap that talks and sings and dances. Doesn't that sound like fun?

In many ways, we are like bars of soap, slowly melting away until there is nothing left but maybe our scent on the last person who was able to use the last little sliver before it slipped out of their hands and zipped down the drain.

I hope you are having a better day than me. Maybe you could email Adult Swim and tell them to hire me. It won't cure my cold, but it would make me a little happier.

2005-12-06T13:06:00.000-05:00

Apparently some people are angered by my dream. They don't want me to get hired by Adult Swim because they can feel no joy for other people.

Robin wrote:

"Come on! Have you no shame?
This is not the "job postings" area. This is an area for "HOUSING WANTED"

Please limit postings in this area to actual housing wanted ads. Don't ruin it all for the rest of us.

As to your job search. Adult Swim would be foolish to hire you when you can't even follow simple directions.

If you were indeed good enough, you wouldn't need to keep posting this stupid ad every day. They would hire you on your own merit. It is ridiculous."

Robin, I need a job and I need an apartment. Why not let people know about both at the same time? It is called multitasking and companies like that in employees. Think outside the box Robin, outside the box, unless someone put you in that box for a reason, like you are an evil demon. Also, "ridiculous" is right. Maybe you are not familiar with Adult Swim, but most of the shows on adult swim revolve around ridiculous plot lines. Thank you for tempering your negative energy with positive compliments.

Tyler wrote:

"Dude give it up, Adult Swim don't want you. If they did they would have hired you the first 30 times you sent them your resume."

Tyler, I haven't sent them my resume "30 times," but maybe I will try that next. Thanks to you sir for your wonderful idea. I will give credit where credit is due.

I still need help. Tell Adult Swim to hire me.

2005-12-05T23:33:00.000-05:00

My right nostril is clogged, but my left is clean and clear. How does this happen? It's this kind of deep-meaning of life-what's that about kind of questions that will set this blog appart from the others. Haha.

So have you told Adult Swim to hire me yet?

Do you know what Adult Swim is?

Here is a poem to let you know a little more about Adult Swim.

Adult Swim
by
Charles McCarthy

Adult Swim
is a block of
adult shows
that shows
late at night
on Cartoon Network
It has funny shows
like Aqua Teen Hunger Force
and Robot Chicken
If those names
don't get you excited
The names alone are worth
saying out loud
Say it with me
Adult Swim
Hire Charles McCarthy

I sent some poems to the New Yorker. They didn't publish them.
They wrote me a very nice note that basically said that my poems were,
"...too real..." whatever that means.

2005-12-05T22:11:00.000-05:00

My blog doesn't seem to be viewable right now. I can only assume that so many people were going to it, that it crashed the server. This is a real setback in my grass roots campaign to be hired by Adult Swim.

2005-12-05T17:32:00.000-05:00

I just talked to some people and they told me that they thought that my grass roots campaign was a good idea.

That makes me feel good. Doesn't it make you feel like joining the fight?

Go to Adult Swim and tell them to hire me.

Still asking yourself, "Why should I tell them to hire him?"

Check out my band Attractive Eighties Women!

We rock!

In our first show ever, we raised $1100 for the Katrina recovery effort.

Now, now don't you think you have to take back all those nasty things you were saying about me?

Why don't you do the right thing?

Go to AdultSwim.com and tell them to hire me, Charles McCarthy.

2005-12-05T16:19:00.000-05:00

Okay so about the tents, I was fresh out of college and I needed a job. I graduated with a BA in studio art. Let me tell all you young kids out there who are reading this, don't expect to get a job right away that pays over $7hr when you graduate from college with a degree in studio art (check out chuckmccarthy.com if you are curious as to what my art looks like).

Where was I?

Oh yes, the tents.

I found a job working for a company that I will call Wevent Elabor Lworks, which is a subcontracted labor company for a large German company I will call Roooder. I met all of their requirements. I had two hands and two legs and at least nine fingers.

I met the guy who hired me at a Starbucks, the same Starbucks that I was hired at, and got in a van with two Canadian guys who had driven down from Montreal. Apparently rental cars are cheaper in Canada.

We drove down to Miami and got to work right away.

I was supposed to be in Miami for a month and a half. I was there for three weeks.

Tune in next time to find out what happened and also go to AdultSwim.com and tell them to hire me.

2005-12-05T15:40:00.000-05:00

Some of you might not believe me about the tents. It is completely true. Really.

I will give you some more details later on today if I get a chance.

AdultSwim.Com

That is a link to AdultSwim.Com where you can send an email telling them to hire me.

Here is a poem for you.

Handy Guy
by
Charles McCarthy

Handy guy am I
I am a handy guy
like a jack of all
trades but my name
is chuck
and you can guess
what you get when
you go with the
flow with me
a handy guy
no not like that
get your mind out of
the gutter and call
a lawyer.

2005-12-05T15:24:00.000-05:00

Some of you may have had some problems figuring out how to email Adult Swim

Well, I made it easy for you. I went and used some of my HTML skills and made a link for you.

Email Adult Swim

Did you know that I used to work building giant tents? Huge tents. I used to have it on my resume, but I got a lot of funny looks from potential employers when they read that I used to be an erection specialist.

Tell them to hire me. It will make you feel good.

2005-12-05T15:06:00.000-05:00

Hello.

This is my first post on this blog. Let me introduce myself. My name is Charles McCarthy III. I am from Atlanta, Ga.
I am trying to get a job at Adult Swim.

For those of you who don't know what Adult Swim is, Adult Swim is a block of cartoons that comes on Cartoon Network at night. These cartoons are funny and are for adults.

I know you might not be sold yet on me, but you should check out Adult Swim.

If you want to help me get a job on Adult Swim, go to AdultSwim.Com and email them.

I will be back with updates and poems to help you see the light.
