The celebration of Thanksgiving is shrouded in a lot of myths and emotional baggage, but there is always something to be grateful for. One thing I'm grateful for is that Thanksgiving's signature entrée didn't end up being eel. People assure me that eel is delicious, particularly as a sushi component, but ... I just can't...

White House of Horrors
I don't know who that anonymous Senator is, but I want to thank him or her. She-Wolf of the Lower Chamber! Tremendous witches! The best witches! The pizza from the national chain is for the journalists! Everywhere, apparently. That's a corn snake. They're harmless and beneficial. A follow-up to 2016's "Trump Tower of Terror." I...

A Real Van of Worms
I have about eleventy billion things I need to be doing, so naturally I spent most of this evening getting inspired by a typo in a friend's message from earlier today, and noodling around with a stylus and a drawing app on my new cell phone. (My friend and I agreed that "van of worms"... Continue Reading →
A Marvelous Night for a Catdance
Good news for the folks who helped out my friend Amy B. by donating to her GoFundMe: your special (unlimited) edition Night Cats trading card is on its way to you. (I told you the final version would be better than my original draft.) Would you like your very own Night Cats trading card? It's... Continue Reading →
Donate to My Friend, Get Free Original Art!: #The 100DayProject2019
Want to own a piece of original art by yours truly? Read on. Simply put: my friend and college classmate Amy B. has Stage 4 colon cancer, and has some serious financial needs. Most recently, she had to raise $3,500 in order to obtain a portable oxygen concentrator that her insurance would not pay for.... Continue Reading →
Archie, Cat Scout: #The100DayProject2019
Nine years ago today, a black-and-white cat -- he was actually a large kitten, but we didn't know that at the time -- leaped up onto our porch, saw me sitting there, and started to beat a retreat. "Oh, no, it's okay," I said, and he changed his mind and came on over to see... Continue Reading →
Family Portrait with Repaired Automobile: #The100DayProject2019
A simple blog entry, for once: We were in trouble. We needed help. Many friends helped us out. We are more grateful than we can express. We can't thank them enough, but this is the design for the thank you cards our friends will be receiving. We are the luckiest people in the world to... Continue Reading →
Lab Cats: #The100DayProject 2019
After going to night school (get it?) for some specialized training, the Night Cats have returned to offer their aid and assistance. And giant tools. Yes, they should be wearing safety goggles and hearing protection. The Night Cats and I would like to use this omission as an opportunity to remind everyone that they should... Continue Reading →
“Tacos Are My Life”: #The100DayProject2019
Observed at a major discount retailer: a woman with a gentle smile ambling up and down the party supplies aisle, selecting a variety of brightly colored plates, utensils, & c. Her two daughters --pre-teen or early teens -- wandered into the aisle. One wore a gold headband with a unicorn horn and a bright pink... Continue Reading →
The Manx!: #The100DayProject2019
Free Comic Book Day was on Saturday, May 4th this year; it's always fun when one nerd holiday coincides with Star Wars Day ("May the Fourth Be With You"), another popular nerd holiday. FCBD is hands-down one of my favorite days of the year, and I have no doubt that this is largely due to... Continue Reading →
