I’m listening to Obama’s infomercial. Whatever he’s selling, I’m buying.

How’s everybody doing? God, I need some Tums.

I’ve been trying to find a way to show how I write comics in Adobe Illustrator. It’s very hard to explain without actually, um, illustrating what I’m doing. I experimented with Read the rest of this entry »

I don’t know what this picture is about. I’m just trying to get your attention.

A few items:
1. Apparently we should not be complacent about the CA marriage initiative–things aren’t looking good.
2. Google has their first index from 2001 up, for their anniversary. I couldn’t help checking to see how many hits I had then–1,460–and now–171,000. Two orders of magnitude! Not bad.
3. Uh…but then I googled Sarah Palin. In 2001–zero. Today? 22,100,000.

I’m having trouble staying on top of the spam, folks. These drug links keep taking over my posts and eliminating the comment box…I go in and delete it, but the comment function won’t come back.

[I’m re-posting the last post, ‘you do not have to be good’ because some pharmaceutical spammer seems to have lodged a zillion links in it. I was able to delete them, but the comment box is still disabled. So I’m just opening a new post.]

Here’s the moose yesterday, carrying Mt. Abe on her shoulders.
And here’s a movie I made this afternoon while I was yanking up roots from the garden and flocks of wild geese honked by overhead.
Check out my pal Phranc’s daily variety show on YouTube. If Mister Rogers and Peewee Herman gave birth to a l’il bulldagger, this is what she’d be like.

Something’s going on with that last post–you can’t make comments on it. Let’s see if you can on this one.
