"The Cat is Out of the Bag"

Is the cat out of the bag? Is there a bag? A cat? That doesn't look much like a cat to me... It could be one, though. If I had a cat that looked like that, I might keep it in a bag. No, I like animals too much to do that. Still, it's a pretty weird looking cat.

$1,000,000.00 Dollar Idea

Well, what do you think???

Bunny

This is me. Either one. Maybe both.

A Nickel

Boy, I tell ya, if I had a nickel for every time...

Everyone's a Critic

This really happened. I saw myself in the mirror, and I recognized myself. And, in my head, I said, "Hey, that's me." And, then, in another part of my head, I said, unbidden, "Or, what's left of me." I thought that was kind of funny, but also, who asked you to say anything???

In Some Small Measure

Surface Appearances

They appear not only to be separate from one another, but also from you. We know better, though, don't we.

(That period probably ought to be a question mark, but it felt too wimpy that way.)

The Fire Within

Try as you may to hide it, your hairstyle and the glint in your eye betrays that which lies beneath-- that engine of good-fortune, that mighty source of heat and light, that which is stoked and nourished from the raw material of the spiritus sanctum in excelsis meow meow. Good on ye, mate.

Happy New Year! Let the Questioning begin...

New Year's Eve!

Gug

Dogman

Here he is--finally! He can help.

Orion's Belt

...Or so I hear.

9th Season

We got picked up for a 9th season! I meant to tell you sooner.

Inspect

Birdsong

Didn't Marty Robbins sing that song? Robins are birds...

Well, there you go.

Support

We're going to keep this thing aloft, goldarnit!

Michael Softman

He'll sing you a gentle folk song.

Nothing

I've been so unproductive. It's just that we're in the middle of selling our house, and my little brain can't handle having that in there and also allowing creativity to flow. Soon...soon we will be out of this weird period and I'll be drawing the things you love and depend upon. Soon...

Old Yeller

Hey Jerk, maybe you shouldn't yell out your kitchen window at people you don't know. It's rude! I don't care why you did it-- maybe you were even in the right...I'll give you that...but, we live in a civilized society, don't we? Maybe you should have tried a different approach! Maybe you should think about your actions before you cross a stranger. Before you cross a stranger while you're standing in your soft, vulnerable kitchen! I know exactly where to find it-- even at 3am when you're sound asleep...sawing logs...dreaming your manly dreams. Your manly dreams about how you are in control. You're the King of your Castle! Ha ha, but you have no moat!!!! You DON'T HAVE A MOAT!!!!!!

(Author's Note: This is merely a creative writing exercise. Don't get the wrong idea about your humble bloggin' pal. He wouldn't do anything untoward. He's such a reasonable fellow!)

Ogogogogog!!!

I know, I know-- I'm the worst person in the world for not posting more often and not telling you about the things that occur in my little pond. I didn't tell you about finding $180 on the street in front of my house a few weeks ago. I didn't tell you that our house is for sale and that we might be moving soon (potential buyer on the line) and that the weather has been odd and that meow meow wobble wobble waffle FAST! This hurts me more than it hurts you. I'll...

A Loud Sounding

(These are supposed to be cubicles).

My original intention in doing this drawing was to depict how funny REALLY LOUD SNEEZES sound when taken out of context. Like, if you don't think about it as being a sneeze, then it just sounds like some horrible creature bellowing or something. Ha ha!

Then, a few minutes ago, I realized that the drawing sort of reminded me of the Minotaur in the Labyrinth that Theseus had to face. Now, it isn't so funny.
