Posted under "MY WIFE JUST SAID..."

  A lot of time we can’t see our own faces and just can’t feel a booger. Unfortunately, most bystanders don’t have the social bravery to walk up and let you know there’s a green troll hanging out at the entrance to one of your nose caves. Awkwaaaaaaard. Boogers are the “open pants zipper” of […]



The Story Inside Us

Posted under NOTEBOOK

This post is brought to you by Target. I remember their voices most of all. And the way they read to me. The feeling of the covers over a littler me. The soft glow of light as the pages turned. Storytelling has always been part of my life and the holidays were the star on […]

  Well… Being completely honest? I give thanks for:   Sleep Whenever. Wherever. However much I can get.   Coffee My unicorn blood for when I haven’t gotten much of the one above.   Bourbon The good stuff.

The Father Is Strong with This One (4 Comics)

Posted under SNAPSHOTS

It’s hard not to try to pass on the things we loved as a kid to our own kids. Star Wars has become such a cultural phenomenon that it’s really our duty as parents, if you look at it, to teach them the ways of the Force, well… at lease teach them about the movies […]



Flowers & Guns

Posted under VIDEOTAPE

In the past week, we’ve seen conversation vary in color, pitch and tone. Humanity has learned, once again, what it means to mourn online.
