And that's a wrap. Look for the new Newberry and Verch release in the spring. A pleasure, April Verch and FJ Ventre!

Coffee Diem. This coffee tumbler was made by a friend of mine who likes to use my image when he is testing out new products. It is a one and only mug!

The old Judge in his lair. That is the father of my youth, right there. On Saturday, he will be gone 14 years.

Continue to Rest in Peace, James S. Newberry.

This holiday season, I am resolving to buy from folks close to home whenever I can. There is a lot of talent and creativity right around the corner. And, don't forget those gift certificates to your favorite restaurants.

Thinking of my dad, James S. Newberry, on Veterans Day. Enlisted the day after Pearl Harbor. Overseas for 3 years. North Africa, Sardinia, Sicily, Italy, and France. Won enough money playing poker on the troop ship home to pay for college and all of his law school. Best man I ever knew.

It is the 250th Birthday of the U.S. Marine Corps. This is my uncle, John B. Newberry. A member of the Raider Battalion during World War II, he was in the Pacific for 3 years...Enlisted at 18 and home at 21. That Raider patch on his arm was worn by only a few. Semper Fi.

Thinking of my late friend Dwane Powell on what would have been his 81st birthday. His work was a fixture in the News & Observer, and this is likely one of the last cartoons he ever did. It is one of my most prized gifts.
