The Neice comes to visit

so after Christmas my niece, Emily the recent college graduate, came to visit and spend a day or two. Well really, her finace, Rob, likes George Washington stuff and they made a pilgramage down here to tour Mt Vernon and then foray into Old Towne to quaff a few Guiness at Murphy's Irish Pub. Thrash enjoyed meeting some of the relatives and future relatives and I think Rob enjoyed playing with Thrash as well. Thursday morning they headed out back to NJ to enjoy the rest of their vacation from work.

Christmas Eve & Day

The tree was trimmed, the presents set. Thrash helped with Christmas eve dinner and the next morning helped opening all the presents. He dug into all his new toys with the zeal of the little puppy that he is. Especially all the chewy toys! Then is was off to Vicki and Mike's to share a wonderful Christmas dinner with all our close friends. Hope your Christmas was wonderful and brought all the peace and joy and happiness you deserve.

Dancing Fish

Not a final product or finished drawing....but a start on a project...:-)

Merry Christmas to all ....

More good things to come in the new year

experiment

was born too late for the Graffiti era - but i can still wield a mean spray can!

Bah- Humbug

feeling kinda scroogy today...the weather sux'ing doesn't help either.

Hoodlum Angel

i am not sure why I have a preoccupation with Christmas these past cartoons, but they are definately not the run of the mill feel good stuff...kinda taking on a life of their own...perhaps escaping from STrangeland?

we all have some sort of Insecurities

another lesson for Scooter to learn...

Winter Wonderland....

for those 60 degree days we're having

"can't find my way home.."

the song of the same name, by Blind Faith [Eric Clapton was a member and wrote this song], kinda was the inspiration for this

Out there humor

at least I didn't post the one I did wrt a booger....

Happy and Merry

While drawing this it brought to mind a computer game that was emailed around about 4 years or so ago...who remembers "Elf Bowling"????? Wish I had kept it , it was a hoot.

Geezer Style

My friend Bill from Huntsville was up here for this weeks meetings. I love his dry sense of humor and acerbic wit, not to mention his razor sharp intellect. But he always refers to himself as an 'old geezer', to my young geezer! He really doesn't dress like this, but was the inspiration for the start of this little doodle. Any resemble to him is purely coincidental...and can you guess where I doodled these? LOL

The Gang is ready for Christmas

and all the cheer they can stand. On their way to a Christmas Party!

Christmas Cheer

The gang is getting together for some Christmas fun...this one was done during a particulary long meeting this week, and I did the coloring afterwork. Mind was listening but the hands were wandering.

What if.......

they held a meeting and no one came? Kinda what happened today here for the second and last day of our Quartly meetings with 'everybody'. We expected a few more folks, who were probably down the road at a conflicting meeting. But was funny today to walk into work and have the boss say "Where is every one?" Well we were able to get a few things done, with the rest of the office benefitting from the left overs of too much food being ordered for lunch. Yum !

Peace - Peter Max style

or a poor woman's version of Peter's style...who wants to show their age and fess us to remembering Peter Max?

Christmas colours..:-)

Good help is hard to find

Thrasher in NY

This trip home to the 'rents for Turkey Day was the first time Thrash was introduced to his GrandMa and GrandPa and of course he made himself quite at home - toys were everywhere,and of course he availed himself of the fenced in yard, both for exercise, exploring and leaving little 'presents'. GrandMa already had treats and toys for him when he arrived. What a spoiled little boy !
