HAPPY PUPPET DAY

since I'm not much for turkey,what better way to spend the day
but watching giant helium balloon animals try to make a break for it
in the skys of NYC, and play with little rubber finger puppets.

Oh yeah, and something about a big dinner later with some
turkey and crap.

Run for it BULLWINKLE!
One of my faves. first appeared in 1961.
Largest balloon is/was Superman,not sure now if he is
FIRST balloon to appear was FELIX THE CAT.
they used to release all the balloons and if you got one
and returned it, you got a prize!
Why I know all this, I don't know. I could be retaining more useful things in my brain- pan,but then again,
it's more fun this way. INNIT?



music of the day: Gary Newman,NIN
food of the day: DURRRRRR it's TURKEY...(sigh)
mood of the day: giddy with helium

I forgot...

NIN: "Cars" with Gary Numan, live from on stage, London 7.15.09 [HD] from Nine Inch Nails on Vimeo.

..how much I like Gary Newman!

Enjoy the holiday muzic! hee hee hee

Ohh so Fantastic!

Who wants to go see it with me?
Love Wes Anderson, Clooney,Jason Bateman,Bill Murray, Roald Dahl, stop motion, and lil'
cute animals...what's NOT to love about this movie?

Tuesday is.....

.......sock monkey day. PSYCHO sock monkey day!

I think his name is Bobo. Apparently he went off his meds quite a while
ago and never quite got back to reality. Currently he spends his days
by the dumpster behind the Whole Foods in Cherry Creek,scaring the
hoity toity trendy socialites ,throwing rotten fruit and moldy
mounds of imported cheeses at anyone who comes near.
I did manage to get close to him one day to draw this likeness
with a bribe of a box of raisins and a half chewed blueberry
fruit leather .

Now when I come by to see him he grunts a jovial greeting in my
general direction. I like to think he knows me enough by now to let
me closer. I hope to be able to befriend him enough to be able to
gain his trust and eventually take him home to join my other fine
sock monkey rescues.

For now I can only help make him comfortable enough to survive
the coming winter blast.
So if you happen to see him around that area, please, give
him a little monkey treat or a sip of your hot chocolate.



music of the day: Tom Waits, 80s rewind fun
food of the day: leftover yesterday
mood of the day; hopeful and alert

MONDAY

...is funday,again. Well, not really. It's "I finally
recovered from my weekend" day.

Here's a development skeech of Sumiko I did last year.
With the body parts you wouldn't see in a daily
newspaper..yes that's right,
you guessed it, her lower legs
would never show up in the daily paper. The panels are too
small. In fact I'd say 90% of comic strips these days don't show
lower halves of characters bodies. There just isn't room for nonsense such as knees, calves, footwear.
Thank Buddha too, cuz I HATE drawing shoes.
OH yeah....and maybeeeeee, just
maybe her nips too....yeah....hmmmm.Maybe dem' as well.
aaaaaa yeahhhh.....

coff coff.



music of the day: mixed bag
food of the day: foraging
mood of the day: now what?

GOOD LOOKING

...MAN ABOUT TOWN.

I'm really enjoying
Morrisseys latest release of B-sides. About all I can DO today is
listen to music ,nap to make up for NO sleep last night. ( don't ask...but yeah,
it was worth it.)
I stare at my drafting table KNOWING I need to write a story,but
I'm so fuzzy nothing tangible is spewing out,like it usually does at the
zero hour ( pun intended...)


Doodling and laid back chicanery shall rule the day. That, and little
rubber finger puppets. Oh, and curry. Definitely curry in all it's leftover
steamy,hot,spicy, curry goodness.
MMMMM curryriffic!

music of the day; MORRISSEY, NIN
food of the day: see above
mood of the day: satiated


some demons expelled, new added

This won't hurt a BIT!

And it didn't! Today I went to GEEZE LOUISE COFFEE HOUSE that is down a few
blocks from me to visit with my pal Misun Oh ,who happens to be
doing acupuncture there every Friday from noon to 1:30 or so. I have been a bit
on edge lately so she did a special treatment to help release some of the stress.
NICE eh?
NOW I look like a REAL punk...hee hee


It's a way cool place with way cool staff and customers. Wi-Fi too.
I had a soothing green tea. I didn't know they had sammiches and stuff so next
Friday I just may swing by for some snax and needles!

Misun is shown here with her book of fun sticking points and needle magic.
What a doll!!! When I was in hospital a few years back she kindly came over and did
a back treatment.SO it's so cool she can help with stress too.
I look like a little pin cushion..in fact the whole half of the shop looked like
the planet of pin-cushion people. Hee Hee.

On the whole, today was a "Get out of the apartment before you
strangle someone" day. I was starting to talk to my stuff and when the puppets
were answering me back...well I knew it was time to GET OUT.......NOW!
NOT a good thing.


Enjoy your weekend, and Beaujolais Day! WOOT!

music of the day: Morrissey, Belle and Sebastian, Beastie Boys
food of the day: a meat product
mood of the day: calmer.

NEW COMIC UP!

A www.webegirls.com
as always PLEASE go read it, leave a comment for me THERE.
Yadda yadda

Today is a mellow day. I think I was listening to too much NIN lately
so today is Tom Waits day...I'm still sad I only have a few cds
of his stuff. Nighthawks I only have on record. I seem to have sold
alot of his stuff when I was moving here from Atlanta and raising funds.
(WHAT was I thinking!?)
I sold alot of stuff I'm regretting, including a nice blues collection,
80s punk stuff etc.... sigh

Also a side note, if and when you are shopping for vitamins ,DON'T go
cheap and get the fish oil pills that DON'T have the 'NO FISH BURPS" printed on it...
I feel like an ol' bear must feel after his gluttonous carnage at the stream.
BRWAAAAAAAAAAAP! ohh how sexy!


I'm off now to ..ummm contemplate my floor,yoga it up
apply for more silly jobs, and stare inside my fridge wondering that if
I stare hard enuff inside , a magical delicious meal will
appear without my having to cook it.
OH and umm puppets, I need to mix it up with some puppets!



Music of the day: T Waits/ RAINDOGS Sonic Youth /assorted
Food of the day: whatever the refrigerator gods deem me worthy of.
Mood of the day: ornery and powerful

later my lil' monkey minions!

special bonus post

Someone pointed out to me that I have, once again,totally digressed from the main
goal of this blog. Namely, to post my comic strips ,art work,and chronicle
my quest for syndication. ( I count my rants about
cereal,Asian noodle bowls, Godzilla, and all things fun a special bonus)
I can't remember if I posted this or not ,but I'm hoping that
it will appease those that feel misled.
If it doesn't ...umm bite me.

giggle

I'm so full of BEANS today!

Turtles and Pirates: Superficial thoughts

First off I saw on Yahoo today that People mag has announced their sexiest man for 2009. Naturally it's Johnny Depp.
Well for me, anyway it was a no brainer. But then
I am attracted to the "bad boy" look. Sure I like a nice Clooney. But what gets my motor running is unique
looks. Shaved head, facial hair, goatees,arty,wacky long hair,glasses,tattoos, black
clothing,punk,goth,pierced,all contribute to the little heart pound I get
when I spot a unique man.
Congrats Johnny, now return mah phone calls! bwahaha

Next up, a friend posted on her blog today a clip from the hysterical, and short lived
series, GREG THE BUNNY. I forgot how fricking funny that show was. Much thanks for her reminder!
Hell, any show with puppets is all reeet by me! Especially a show with
Sarah Silverman, Eugene Levy and a turtle puppet named "Tardy"...
I did a spit take watching some clips on Youtube. You owe it to yourself to
go check it out.

My day is complete. hee hee hee.


Music of the day: Tom Waits,The Cure
food of the day: Bleah....
mood of the day: Ornery

Eventually...

..the whole of this comic will post at www.webegirls.com after some
technical difficulties so check it out, oh, I'd say by tomorrow morn.


SO I'm sitting here working on stuff and all of a sudden I hear
this NOISE, this,,growllllllll ,like the fox living in our
neighborhood has returned under my window, but no, It's
MY tummy! My tummy telling me in no uncertain terms that my diet
of late has been less than wonderful. O.k, I have somehow
recently and quite fast,as of today lost 10 pds. Maybe the diet
of stress, anxiety, excitement and rice crackers is not all THAT
after all. But seriously, I'm not that hungry or interested in food
lately. Well, MY cooking maybe ,but still....
EH, who am I to complain? It ain't gonna kill me.


A cleaning find. CHEX Cereal box prize from early 70s I want to say
Space ship launcher.I dare not try to launch it,the rubber bands are shot
but ain't it cool?
Why don't they do cool stuff like this anymore in Cereal?

"You'll put yer eye out kid" OR,some asswipe dork kid will swallow the thing.

Mercy me...

I think Monday got away from me..it must have been the whole weekend that
unraveled me...You see, I FINALLY went out to a CLUB here...
Ya, me ,the recluse...laugh if you will, but it was one of the FIRST
times since I moved here that I felt sort of at home. I have been too
insulated, yes I KNOW it's the typical cartoonists lament, But efforts have
to be made to rectify that problem. Who's up for helping? HUZZAH!
So that tells me something..not sure WHAT but,it do.

More comics on way, there's OTHER stuff in life too ya know?
Not sure WHAT yet,but there is....

music of the day: The Cure , Tom Waites
food of the day: some sort of chicken thing
mood of the day: bewitched and satiated all at once...

THOSE drawers...

Today was a perfect day to tackle some around the pad cleaning.
(see photo on left) Anyway, in cleaning I ran across one of
THOSE drawers, you know what i mean. The "catch all weird sorts of crap
who knows what it's for junk drawer" Everyone has one,you know, filled
with old matchbooks, coasters, various receipts to various things,
twist ties,broken pens you one day will "fix", guitar picks, old remotes to
who knows what, batteries,
empty keyrings, little rubber finger puppets...(o.k maybe be not
everyone will have little rubber finger puppets), old baggies that had
who knows what in them,yadda yadda. I ask myself now ,why do I even SAVE stuff
like that with the thoughts of "I may NEED that someday"?
I tossed 99 % of it.

Most places have ONE drawer like that....I found I have several, in every room.

It's going to be a long Sunday...

Saturday musings

O.K. so, Isabella Rosellini is the most beautiful woman in the world.
She is also aging gracefully, with humor and self respect.
I just had to say that. I saw this photo when I got an email about the
NARS 15x15 photo book project . Here's the link.
https://www.15x15project.com/

Anyway,she brightened MY snowy Saturday right up.

Hope yours is.

WOOPS!

I forgot to post anything...umm sorry.Just been dealing with
job schtuff and some wacko don't know yet life evolving schtuff busy
enuff to distract you from posting comics.....


hey SNOW on the way again..maybe..WOW who'd a THUNK it?
Bwahahahahah!!!
the comic clip is from an upcoming strip for
www.webegirls.com

Remember, every Monday a new comic!

YES, I DO play sports!

LOOK OUT Tiger Woods! Here I come!
Well, who COULD miss a ball with a club that size?
But I do notice my stance could use a little work.
I seem to be a lefty there. What the hell happened?
Maybe THAT'S why I always feel so out of sorts and
uneasy, I was really a south paw and forced the change.

Hmmmmmm, naaaaaaa... I'm a bit ambidextrous now as it is.
I eat left handed most times and do some other stuff
lefty. I did attempt to learn to cartoon lefty, just in
case I ever lost that use in the right from my nightmare
accident that rendered ol' Mr. Righty useless.


Did you go check out my comic yet? sigh...go...now...
do as I bid!!!!

music of the day: HUSKER DU!
food of the day: none, mr. tummy hates me today
mood of the day: giddy an unsure but surprisingly
satisfied...

IN other news, I'm just enjoying the process (HA!) of
resume sending, job hunting,receiving no response,
coupon clipping,concert missing,weird pot roast makin',
days I seem to be experiencing, as well as the escape from
the mundane with new and not so new pals in my life.
Keep me sane ol' buds..keep me sane.
