Ash commission
Saturday, March 31st, 2007The product of a few hours in Starbucks with my iPod and art supplies.
This one’s going to Italy I think. Yet another place I’ve never been.

week by numbers
Thursday, March 29th, 2007This week has been replete with extremes. I can’t really go into detail, for several reasons…not least of which is that it would be a complete downer for all to read. If you want it by the numbers its
1 tragedy
2 encounters with foolishness and stupidity
2 things that would normally make my week fantastic
and [...]
intermission
Wednesday, March 28th, 2007I would elaborate on my last post, but we’ve had a bit of a family situation this week. I’ll get to it when I get to it.
What’s wrong with this statement?
Sunday, March 25th, 2007There is no absolute truth*.
(*Just when I thought nonsense of this magnitude couldn’t get so close to home.)
Hats
Friday, March 23rd, 2007I want a new hat that isn’t a baseball cap and isn’t a cowboy hat. Suggestions?
Stacking the Deck
Thursday, March 22nd, 2007I’ve been in a discussion recently with an atheist friend of mine about the existence of non-physical things. He contends that all things are physical including: thoughts, ideas, abstract concepts, images you think of in your mind, meanings and math. This is the first time I’ve encountered someone who holds this so dogmatically, [...]
I’m okay….
Wednesday, March 21st, 2007I was really sick this week. But I’m better now.
donuts
Tuesday, March 20th, 2007Sunday night at work I was looking over the nutritional information of our pastries. We figured out that the healthiest thing we could carry was a chocoloate glazed donut. Which we don’t. Holy Cow.
St. Patrick’s Day Patrick memories…
Saturday, March 17th, 2007Today is St. Patrick’s day.
I knew a guy named Patrick, but he wasn’t officially a saint. One time in high school we convinced another friend of ours to take his two wheel drive half-sized truck 4-wheelin’. It didn’t work. We have to leave his truck there overnight. His mom was [...]
tradition
Wednesday, March 14th, 2007Last year we had a girl dance to get comics.
This year the tradition has continued….
they say all press is good press…
Tuesday, March 13th, 2007Especially when the good press is good press.
Here’s our Newsarama review
quick notes.
Monday, March 12th, 2007I just finished up another con this weekend. I’ve got a ton of stuff to draw…so this will be short.
The book has been accepted for distribution by the company that distributes to your larger booksellers (i.e. Barnes & Noble, Borders, Books-A-Million etc…) We’re still waiting on another one and once we hear from [...]
How Sir Ian McKellen acts so well…
Friday, March 9th, 2007sketch and a dull story
Thursday, March 8th, 2007The short version in Haiku:
Blood sugar dropping
Then comes ravenous hunger
Time to leave the gym
The longer, dull version:
This afternoon I was at the gym trying to do 40 minutes on the elliptical. At 30 minutes I got a little light headed and then got RAVENOUSLY HUNGRY. Maybe my blood sugar dropped or something.
I was so hungry [...]
Pretentious waiter guy says
Tuesday, March 6th, 2007This pretentious waiter wants you to try something new today. Perhaps calamari or escargot. He thinks caviar is overrated and touristy. If you order it, he’ll express his disgust with a slight, almost unnoticeable puff of air from his nostrils. He also thinks all Americans are fat and lazy.
His most embarrassing secret is that he [...]
Behold: a sketch and a thought for March 5
Monday, March 5th, 2007This weekend is Stellarcon in High Point, NC. Team GravyBoy will be in attendance. This is our first year there, so I don’t know what to expect…all I know is it’s Friday through Sunday. If you happen to be in the area, look us up. My beret-wearin’, artsy -fartsy Santa head demands it.
brian defaces public property
Friday, March 2nd, 2007The last time my handiwork was featured in such a prominent place, I was 4 years old and I engraved my name behind the curtain on the wall of my parents bedroom (with the end of a power cord).
For the record, my name stayed there until we rediscovered it when I was in college…when the [...]
perspective people…
Thursday, March 1st, 2007I often wonder if people who come into the store, and make a complete jerk out of themselves over a cup of coffee, go home and think “wow…I feel stupid now.”
Let’s hope they do. Because if coffee is that big a deal, I’d hate to see them have a real problem.
