I had to go see my bear, Curt, first thing. But, yeah, it's been three years for me, too. And I have way too many damn flowers growing on my island.

Ha ha! Sorry about that!

We rule!

As Cole has said in one of my pieces:

"It f@ckin' hurts when I smile".

Sehr gut! (That's about all the German I remember from high school).

Joost is adorable. Add well dressed.

I have several different versions of that on my hard drive. I have a whole folder of Marten Toonder's art saved for when I need inspiration on what to draw next.

I discovered his art because I was into PG Wodehouse's "Jeeves" books, and found Bommel's butler, Joost. Love the inking on Joost.

At least one of those two critters looks gay to me!

Ya know, I did one art piece for the movies he's starred in, but never made one for the fiction he writes. I may have to look into drawing art of him talking about the books he's written.

Time to do some research.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Lion.

Enjoy the movie and your birthday "spankings" (if that's what you kids call it these days).

There's a whole lot of "Yes!" in these pictures

Was in Auburn last time I went home. Saw William Seward's and Harriet Tubman's homes. I'm from Syracuse originally.
