Tony Millionaire is one of my favorite cartoonists working today. He’s been doing this Maakies strip for quite some time now ,I saw this one for sale on the internet. He has a website selling original artwork for about $350 apiece, not a bad price at all. My plan is to buy one a year with my income tax returns.

Tony Millionaire also has a comic book series out from Dark horse called sock monkey and don,t forget billy hazelnuts. A couple months ago I won a Sock monkey lunch box and some Sock Monkey stationary from a dark horse online contest so I just want to say thanks and go buy those too, and check out the MaaKies hardcover collections by Fantagraphics. Buy all things Tony Millionaire and read MAAKIES every week.

This song is helping to calm me down after almost experiencing a vicious attack by the pregnant dog living under my house. Picturing a knife is also calming. Enjoy.

                                 Is this why people find them cute? So, when do the Olsen Trolls come out, I bet they would be very collectible. 

Check out the amazing story telling skills of Slick Rick A.K.A. Rick the Ruler. Once known as half of the famous rap duo Slick Rick and Doug E. Fresh. If you don’t know who they are check out the video for Ladi Dadi on You Tube and sample the human beat boxing skills of Doug E. Fresh.

This is a Sampling of local Seattle artist Jim Woodring’s cartoon for his comic strip Frank. Check out this Sample then go to his Website and buy his paintings. 

Gotta give credit where credit is due, so thanks Haakon for reminding me of this awesome Muppet Show clip.

             It’s rather stunning that we couldn’t find a good video of one of today’s protests online. So we have opted for a couple of static images instead. If you happen to frequent these gatherings, start taking video with your iphone or your cell or something. We need more documentation and more proof that there is a strong opposition to the War in Iraq. 

             Props goes out to those who made it out, who showed their presence and opposition. So what color goes with the 5th Anniversary? Blood red?
