![]() Last week I headlined the update with "A Perfectly Reasonable Explanation," in reference to what I'm sure we were to hear from the former president regarding the documents seized at his golf club. Ah, well.Īnyway, here's this week's strip, a heavy rumination onįri, Aug 19 - So Many Reasonable Explanations I dunno, I really liked this one, at least as far as using the cartoon form to have some fun, even if nobody on social media seemed to even notice it. That was the case for this week's strip, where I noodled around a bit on the basic text, and how I could treat it, and only after playing around with it in terms of space and shape did anything like a joke or story emerge from the shape of the letters themselves. Sometimes a cartoon idea comes from simply wanting to play around with a typographical treatment on a title. So many wonderful options and combinations!Īnyway, here's a cartoon for y'all. Or losing? Wosing? Linning? Tough to say. In other entirely unrelated news, here's a cartoon: Let it be over sooner than later, if you please, universe! But at least the damn thing went out the door, so now the delightful 9 or more weeks of waiting for Canada to whip up a new passport, 9 weeks of unfreedom to cross a border, hath begun. It's always a frustrating experience, trying to do some simple bit of business and colliding facefirst with some vast inscrutable metastructure of internal corporate dysfunction. Whew! Who knew shipping off a passport renewal application to Quebec would vex FedEx so thoroughly that a simple 15-minute errand would balloon into two hours of frustrating BS? Not me, I can assure you, though I know it now. It will occur once I return!Īll good? Lovely! Here's this week's strip, which may or may not be inspired by various chatter about "special masters" I've been hearing of late. Right? Fate? It'll be fine, won't it?Īnyway, after SPX I'll be touring a bit up the East Coast to see some family, so don't y'all panic if there's no update this time next week, as I'm informing you now there won't be. My flight leaves at 6:12am and I'm a bit nervous about being able to secure an Uber or taxi out to the airport early enough. A quick, by which I mean excruciatingly extended, jaunt across the nation to Washington DC, then on to lovely Bethesda, MD, there to hang and/or chill with a bunch of talented cartoonists including but not limited to Keith Knight, Lonnie Millsap and Ruben Bolling. So let's have them, and be quick about it! First is this tangy morsel:Īnd then, as if by magic but in fact is only by dint of having the following cartoon on hand to post, we have:Įnjoy, you kings, queens and others of New England!Īlso known as SPX, or the Small Press Expo. normal human life! It has some appeal.īut really, who really cares about all that when there are Bob the Angry Flower cartoons to post? NOBODY. As were pit stops in Baltimore and New York, as well as a nice weekend with East Coast family I don't get to see much. Hit play on these bangers and you’re guaranteed to get in the party mood wherever you are.Yep, back from Small Press Expo, which was greatly enjoyable. The beats are nonstop and the grooves are infectious. There are some pop favourites, a few karaoke classics, and some all-round happy songs. ![]() So, you get the snacks, we’ll bring the hot tracks: this playlist of classic party tunes is sure to get everyone moving in an explosion of joyful, fevered dancing. Seriously, is there a better feeling in the entire world than dancing in a club – or your kitchen – with a load of people who are also ready to lose it when they hear ‘Like a Prayer’ or ’Wannabe’ or ‘I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)’? If you want everyone at your party to join in, you have to err on the side of familiarity: if none of your guests will know a song, it doesn’t make it onto the playlist. We didn’t realise quite how much we missed parties until we were able to have them again. ![]()
