Some Parental Advice

If you're out of baby food, a can of dried chopped onion will do nicely. In fact, let the kids cut loose on the spice rack and you're all set for lunch and dinner.

Drawing for the 700 Hoboes Project

So if you haven't heard of the 700 Hoboes Project, here's the skinny. Basically some humorous guy named John Hodgman wrote a book called The Areas of My Expertise. Part of this book involves a list of 700 hobo names. I first heard about it through the audio version of the list which also featured my new favorite song writer Jonathan Coulton. Some time ago it was suggested that various artists should go through and put a face to the hobo names. Here is my entry for number 175 "Commodore Sixty-Four". To bad that someone just beat me by posting their own Commodore Sixty-Four a few days earlier but then again they don't frown on duplicate entries. Not my best work but it's pretty good. I'll probably add some more hoboes to the project in the future.

No Posts for a While.

Just got back from a vacation so I haven't been able to post for a while. I'll make up for it now with a small set of posts today.

Street Conversation I Just Had 10 Min Ago.

Old Lady: Excuse me. Excuse me.
Evan: Yes?
Old Lady: Do you see that moon. (pointing to full moon)
Evan: Yes.
Old Lady: Is that a dark yellow? I just wrote it down on my piece of paper.
Evan: No, I wouldn't say dark yellow. Maybe a light yellow.
Old Lady: A light yellow..... OK. Thank You.

The full moon does strange things.

siafu

I was watching some Discovery Channel type show about killer ants and for no good reason aftwards decided to draw a Siafu. They are mean little critters. Don't mess with the Siafu.
