So, is he a statue, or what?

Seriously, what is going on here?  I have almost no idea.  Someone should figure it out.  Is that worm holding the Bee-zooka guy up, does he like taxidermy, is he really just a dingus who happened to be walking by?

So MANY questions!

Apparently, this guy is some sort of snake-creature

This is going to get interesting, I think.  I'm starting to get ideas.

Look! It's a worm, or something!

I wonder where I'm going with this.  The unemployment line, probably.



It continues.

It's amazing how 2 or 3 minutes of downtime in an afternoon can incrementally expand on an idea.  Let's see where this goes.

Doodling

It begins.  

Doodling is a crazy thing.  I don't do it out of boredom or inattention.  I have found I get the most out of work and informational meetings when I have a doodle up and going.  It fills the space on conference calls, quiets the fidgets when you're on display, and, when it's done correctly, it looks like furious note taking.

Unless your boss is sitting next to you.

Happy Patriotic Day Off!

Today I want to wish everyone a happy day of revelry, remembrance, and appreciation of all those freedoms that we haven‘t had overtly removed.  I know I will be expressing myself  frequently, loudly, and incoherently, if drunkenly, and remembering those who have served, died, and died while serving.  I have the right to be awesome here, and I know there are places I would not be allowed to be so.  I appreciate that.  I hope you do, too.

This is a great country, but it is in no way perfect, and our leadership seems, at times, to not have made it past an 8th grade maturity level.  Seriously.

Ok, in the spirit of  our rebellious forefathers, I want you to be the most patriotic American on your block, So here’s my suggestion:  We have the ability to change the people who actually run the government, but we have this habit of staring at the figurehead that we have no control over.  Instead of getting all angry at the President, who you can’t legally replace at this point, try learning about what your Congressmen actually do & vote on.  Figure out if they are part of the idiot problem, and vote against them if they aren’t helping. 

START HERE:    http://www.house.gov/representatives/find/
                            http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm


If your Congressmen are part of the problem, and the other candidate makes you sick, don’t be scared of the third party option.  Find someone who represents you and vote for them.  If no one does, you may need to run, personally.  Seriously, if you can get a few thousand friends on Facebook, you can get elected.  I’ll tell you a little secret:  Appeal to senior citizens.

No matter what, talk (don’t preach or push) with your friends about this.  Make it popular.  Make the Representatives people, and not just part of a faceless, all encompassing, hive minded Congressmonster that I shall call Congrazilla the Obfuscator.

If people are aware of them, and what they do, maybe they won’t keep electing the same pile of fools. 

In any case, have a great Independence Day.  Don’t drink and drive.  Get a ride home if you‘ve had a couple, and drink a glass for me.

A longer post will be up in the next couple of days, with lots of goofy drawings and little mini comic strips.
