My friend Errol Elumir is the biggest Studio Ghibli Fan ever (please help me prove it by casting a vote)

I created the image above in honor of my friend Errol's birthday because of his obsession with Studio Ghibli :-)

Some of you may have heard me talking about my friend Errol, who is my creative doppelgänger as well as being one of the most positive, sweetest people I know. He and his daughter helped create the I'M BORED book trailer music video for me. 

Anyway, The Toronto Film Festival (TIFF) is holding a Studio Ghibli Contest to find the biggest Studio Ghibli fan; reward: tickets to see 10 Studio Ghibli films at the TIFF Lightbox. Errol and some of his friends put together a fantastic graphic compilation of Why Errol Elumir Is The Biggest Studio Ghibli Fan Ever so people could vote, but the TIFF interface was such that the graphic ended waaaay too tiny for people to read. :-(

Errol gave me permission to post his comic below. If my friend's Studio Ghibli Fan obsession amuses, delights or horrifies you, I urge you to go over the to Errol's Studio Ghibli Contest TIFF page and vote for him. You can see the other entries as well -- all admirable, of course! But not nearly as Studio Ghibli-crazed as Errol's, in my opinion. :-)

See what I mean? If you agree that my friend Errol is the Biggest Studio Ghibli Fan, please take a moment to vote.

You do know I love you, don't you? I hope so. ^_^

Oh where to begin? If Errol could live in the different worlds of Studio Ghibli - he would.

Letting him choose only one...that would be mind-numbing and give him an ulcer.

Now give him the ability to bounce from world to world...then we'd never see him again.

Now...the question is; is he still young enough to see the Tree Spirits? That would remain to be seen! :)
