Emo Goofy - Rough Sketch

The things my youngest and I cook up...

We're still arguing over Eeyore's career choices.

The Scapegoat

A buddy of mine was teaching an Old Testament class and got to the part about the "Scapegoat".  We were talking about it and came up with a vision of a Far Side cartoon where the scapegoat comes back.

Here is my shameless ripoff of The Far Side.

Sometimes Things Just Don't Work Out

I decided to do a spoof of the Star Wars Episode I poster with Anakin casting a shadow as Darth Vader.

I decided to use Darth Tater and have him cast his shadow as an order of fries.

Yeah, good idea, poor execution.

Remember When Steven Tyler Fell In The Shower?

Yeah, I had forgotten about that too. Funny what you find on your hard drive. :)

Crushing Your Head

It seemed like a good defense at the time.

Happy Thanksgiving!

The Pilgrims sometimes had to resort to "Gravy Boarding" the turkeys to get the information they needed.

I remembered this from last year and had to drag out the old "Gravy Boarding" post in honor of Thanksgiving.  I'll be wearing my Witten Jersey asleep in front of the Cowboy's game this afternoon.

Happy Thanksgiving and may God's blessings be on you all!

Rockers For Life... Alert

Is That A Gun In Your Pocket Or...

The Adventure Begins

Inspiration From The Strangest Places

My buddy at work, Dan, has been giving me all sorts of drawing ideas.

It began a few weeks back when we were talking about how automated the bathrooms were becoming and he replied that it was part of the plan of our "Evil Robot Overlords".

That led to this drawing:

No more than three times, or else!

This week he has been distraught by a very demanding customer so he keeps quoting the movie "The Omen."  Specifically the scene where the nanny commits suicide for Damien.  Dan wails out from his cubicle, "It's all for you, Damien! All for you!"

Obviously I couldn't let that slide so I did a pen and pencil for his cube:

Yeah, Damien; we know who "The Man" is!

Perhaps I will be cured of my madness soon... Although I doubt it.

General Grumpus

A lawsuit is strong with this one!

If only Sam's Club understood the use of parody allows the use of images.  Meh...

I Speak Geek

I have some new stuff up on my Comic Shop Cafe Press site. In keeping with my new job I have made a Geek reference and since it made me giggle, I want to throw it out for everyone to enjoy.

Excuse Me Stewardess...

Yep, you know this means a new shirt is coming!

Do You Ever Feel Like...

...putting kittens into a blender?

New Artist In The House

I am no longer the top dog artist in the house, I now have some competition, Lucie has unleashed her new Super Hero...

Super Bunny!

Here is a comic Lucie did on her own starring Super Bunny!

The Adventures of Super Bunny!

I hope she takes care of me when I am old.

As I Shamelessly Rip Off Lady GaGa

Doe this hat make me look gay?

This is exactly why I shouldn't draw late at night... Oh my poor wife.

IAMFAIL December 28th, 2010 (Learn From My FAIL)

There are those who have lost data, and those who will lose data.

Yep, it finally happened.  My external drive bit the dust.  The one I had been meaning to back up.  The one with kids pictures from all different ages, pictures from my trips, tons of music and software.  Work emails I had archived for when I eventually get put out to pasture.

I was pretty depressed and kicking myself in the butt.  Working in tech support I know failure is inevitable and a good set of backups makes the hurt much easier to deal with.  I broke one of my own rules which is to back up religiously.

Oh well.  I checked out the hard drive and the problem is the motor is seized.  Apparently this is fairly common for Seagate external drives, they take a good shock and BLAMMO.

While I mourn my lost data I will see if I can send it off to get the data recovered by removing the disks and replacing the motor.  It isn't likely, but there is a possibility.

Adding to my paranoia is the fact I couldn't find my software bag.  That would be the one with all my OS's and my copy of Paint Shop.  Without Paint Shop, life may end for me.

OK, whining over.  Enjoy the look of total dismay on my illustrated face.

Stick Figure MacGuyver to the rescue!

With a tiny stick of gum, a tiny mullet and a tiny paper clip Stick Figure MacGuyver makes his great escape into the dark corners of the universe.

SCORE ONE!

The things I see written on twitter which inspire me *sigh*.

Happy Thanksgiving to all and may God's blessings be on you all!

The dreaded "Triple Dog Dare!"

Sometimes goofy conversations can be inspiration.  Yesterday I was talking on twitter with my buddy @MarshallSheldon when stopped replying.  I fired off a couple of attention getter tweets and he responded that he had gotten distracted licking the bus window.

I think the illustration sums it up better.
