Back and For What It's "Worth" ....

Had to take a break for a bit -- from keyboarding, laptops, etc. as the wrists, etc. have suffered some. I'd rather draw than type - so taking it easy and preserving my drawing paw is a higher priority. I will slow down a bit, spend less time on the net and wear a brace/splint when typing - so I'll try to make any new post more meaningful.

So, I'm getting a kick out of surfing a little and seeing what I missed. One thing that I can honestly say I've never read since childhood has been the comic strip "Mary Worth". However, thanks to following the Comics C blog, it's pretty hilarious to read now. (and I love the ALDOMANIA t-shirt he'll be selling on CafePress!)Nothing like adding a stalker that looks like Capt. Kangaroo in the mix to make a soap opera strip entertaining. People have been having fun with the new addition too -- there's even a YouTube video created! Mary, we're not laughing with you, we're laughing at you .... but it's all good.

Need a vacation from my vacation!

Sorry that I've been slower to post new cartoons, commentary, etc. Prepping for vacation and returning from vacation has taken a toll!

Tip for the day though: If you can splurge - crab cakes at The Oceanaire in Washington, D.C. is one of the highlights of my trip! :-)

Favorite Colbert Clips

Here's a few clips I've gotten a kick out of:
In this one his guest is Bob Schieffer.

I love The Cars - and recently a couple of original members (Greg Hawkes and Elliot Easton)wanted to get back together and reform the group. Ric Ocasek was not interested and the person that stepped up in the reformation is Todd Rundgeren. They have been on tour until Elliot Easton broke his shoulder, I believe. Here's a link to The New Cars site - plus they've got a catchy lil' new tune called "Not Tonight". I found Ric's appearance on Colbert's show quite humorous.
