The Good Old Days

Retro Shock & Space Yowl

A couple of Post-It sized doodles I did on Monday

Doodles on a Train

The phrase "Mugged by a Wookie" had popped into my head, and I thought perhaps it could be the basis for an amusing drawing. While riding on the train home, I had my sketchbook out and was seeing what I could come up with along those lines, but didn't really come up with anything I liked. I just continued doodling, though. Here are some of the drawings:

Hey, maybe this could be something; perhaps the title of an entry in a paperback book series -- Space Age Frankenstein: Mugged By A Wookie!

Alien Observer

An Attorney Will Be Provided

Frankenquestion

I was in the mood to draw a Frankenstein...

The Plot Thins

Squashsquid

Tentaclown

Why not end the "Sticky-Note A Day" Month with something that crawled out of the darkest pit of madness to amuse and delight?

Verisimilitude or Just Lies?

An anecdote from the life of -- hmmm, shall we call him Tommy?-- Yes, "Tommy"

In a valuable life lesson, young Tommy's mother urged him to give his LAST piece of candy to the grungy panhandler who worked the downtown corner daily. Eagerly, half stumbling, Tommy ran with his offering to "Mr. Scruffy". Scruffy accepted with a snaggletoothed grin and a wink (he'd have rather been given some booze). Ever since that fateful day, anyone with a hard luck story have been able to take advantage of poor old Tommy...

Just Draw

Just Drawin'

Job Satisfaction

Just get the money and let (outsourced) Customer Service worry about the rest...

Parallel Gloomy

Something scribbled at 3:30 in the Morning...

Clown Think

In the past I've posted "disturbing clown" drawings; today, we have a drawing of someone thinking about disturbing clowns.

Inaction Reaction

Eventually the Government will decide that regular people getting involved in the system is just making everything a big hassle for the elites that are running the show. So to deal with this, they'll start advertising campaigns to encourage the citizens to just stay home, don't bother to vote and so on -- You know, leave it to the professionals...

But...

Perhaps there should be a support group for "nice guys" -- they could gather every month and complain about the women who prefer "bad boys" and "bums" to them. Then there could be a support group for the women who like "nice guys" but are ignored because the "nice guys" are too busy pursuing women who'll never be interested in them.

Why Not?

Half Clown

Fables

Today, I thought I'd illustrate the old fable of The Three-Legged One-Armed Crab and the Lazy Bunny. You remember that one right? With the Castles, King Arthur's Round Table and all that? No? Hmmm...

Inflatable Grin

To Serve and Detest

Something I drew while trying to keep my eyes open for just a few more minutes...

Tampering With

I call this one ...Or -- The New Grocery Boy

Hamster Wheel

Seeing is Believing

If Only...

Busy Day

I call this one If Cat's Had Jobs

Quick Cat

A last minute drawing.

Hippy Diaspora

Was there a plot to remove the Hippies from San Francisco after the "Summer of Love"?? Did the FBI really organize and hold a fake Free Grateful Dead concert in a venue that was in fact a Colosseum sized functional toilet? Did all the concert goers get flushed directly to ramshackle communes in the South West?? Where was Billy Jack when all those Flower Children really needed him??

Kitty Corner

Did cat's ask this question before human's existed?

Bright Idea

Did you know that even in the primordial Time-Before-Time, a bright idea would be indicated by a light bulb?

IT'S TRUE!

Hirsute Pursuit

When all else fails, grow a big mustache!

The Best Medicine

Awful Joe

With some high-priced fancy coffee cafe on seemingly every corner these days, perhaps it's for something different -- why not start a chain of java shops that sell cheap, terrible dreck? Why spend a lot of money to get that caffeine jolt every morning? Not only could people save big bucks, but they'd also take a certain pride in their ability to down the noxious brew. AWFUL JOE, that's what the place could be called. I can imagine TV commercials with customers bragging about how they've just had the worst cup of coffee in the world AND got change back from their dollar. Maybe the could sell stale pastries too. Yeah, AWFUL JOE -- think about it!

Pedestrian Quandary

Just started scribbling with the pencil here, with a little digital clean-up.

Perhaps it's two in the morning, you're standing on the corner and the traffic light is red -- there is no traffic -- do you follow the rules and wait for the light to change green?

More Clown

Ink Shapes

Something in ink

Eye of the Clown

Starting today, I'll post a new drawing, cartoon, imbecilic scribbling or whatever I can fit onto a yellow "sticky note" (the 1.5" x 2" variety) every day this month.

Here we have the first:

Marvelously grotesque! I will call this Polyphemus the Clown. Perhaps he's smiling because he has just dined on some fine Greek cuisine?

Ejikatin'

We hope for a Utopian education system with kind, supportive and understanding teachers. Teachers who will guide children to some psychologically unblemished intellectual Nirvana. In reality, we do have some psychotic sadists out there who seem to take pleasure in making students miserable, tarnishing young minds with their special brand of insanity; filling days with humiliation and embarrassment; supplying traumatic memories that we get to revisit, over and over in our darkest nightmares.

But is this a bad thing? Once we reach adulthood, one of the greatest pleasures we have is to share tales of hideous school days with our friends and cohorts -- laughing at the ridiculousness of our lives!

Here's to you awful teachers! I salute you (as, I assume, you eternally rot in the lowest dungeon of hades...)!!

Eye Cloth

The other day, I had a dream that had something like this in it...

A floating cloth tube with a worried eye. Now, what could that mean? Will I use a sock to clean my glasses in the future??

While in Transit

I drew this while on the Metra train home

I imagine the fellow may be saying something like "Someone just told me life is like a big Yo-Yo, but I always thought it was more like a paddle-ball..."

Clownhorse

Haven't posted a disturbing clown drawing in a while. How about this?

Is that disturbing? I don't know -- Clownhorse -- It sounds kind of disturbing. Perhaps it marks the point where Dr. Moreau just took thing too far...

Lines

Was just scribbling. Perhaps this could be a joke carved into some ancient obelisk -- yeah there could be a really great line in there somewhere.

Future's Future

Freud Feud

DID YOU KNOW...

... That if you defeat your analyst in a wrestling match, that means your therapy is complete?

IT'S TRUE!!
