My Tech Guy's Blog

This is website full of quirky cartoons from Family Guy and American Dad actor/creator Seth MacFarlane. If you've seen either of those shows.. you either get then or you dont, either way... you've probably been offended.

I'm a fan of Seth's simply because his voice acting is brilliant... and he has a great voice.

His cartoon website has some good stuff too...
