“What is it? What is it really?” J A B B E R W O C K Y I had this moment last week when I felt like I was living in a sitcom. Specifically, the short-lived, yet excellently done Better Off Ted. In one episode, Ted moves some money around so Linda, a...
Wow.

I am just floored. Thanks to everyone who nominated both the...
“It’s Good Friday!” “Good? Man – it’s Great Friday! I have the day off!” “Right, but it’s still just Good Friday.” “You are nuts. Having Friday off makes it Great.” “No, no – see, it’s Good Friday.” “Maybe for you. You have to work.” “It doesn’t have anything to do with working or not...

So here’s the thing. New job = zero free time. And I do mean zero. Most days I have 35 mins of break time. You are not allowed to take more than 10 mins at any one time. This varies from manager to manager. It takes 1-3 mins to get to a restroom from...

Making the show work with its cast of eccentric characters and outrageous...
So after my first week of full work at the new job, I have to say – I’m exhausted. 13 hour days. Yeah. As for the job itself, I have to say it has its ups and downs. I’m doing inbound sales – that means people are calling in to me wanting to buy...
I decided I wanted to try my hand at something a little different. Saw an episode of one of the later Batman animated shows and noticed that every time he ‘landed’ (like when he dropped from the roof, or swung in on a line), he would take up this posture where his cloak covered...

You’re driving along. Let’s say, for the sake of example, you’re on Highway 1000. A GIGANTIC sign says, “Right Two Lanes-HWY 1050-5 miles.” now, you’re in the right lane. What do you do? Most people keep going. You have plenty of time. Another sign, “Right Two Lanes-HWY 1050-4 Miles.” Again, you keep going. I...
Second attempt at drawing in Photoshop using the Wacom tablet I’ve had for years. First the sketch: I liked drawing this time better than last time. I’ve had the Wacom tablet since… 2001? I’m actually impressed it’s still supported (I’m using MAC OS X.7.5 but an older version of Photoshop). Anyway, drawing on a...
