Scored the Complete works of Calvin an' Hobbs. Easily one of the best written and drawn Sunday paper strips ever. If you have never read any of these, you are truly missing one of life's greatest joys.

"You're so smart."

My 10yr old niece has said this to me several times yesterday. "I'm not any smarter than your dad."

"You're smarter than my dad."

"No. I am not. We know different things. It's not the same thing." She narrowed her eyes at me as if to say, that she does not believe me. Knowing a lot of certain things doesn't make you

Waiting down in the Hospital Cafeteria for them to page me when my Moms done with her procedure. She's getting something put under her skin to make it easy when they connect the tubes for her Chemo. Something that she now needs to do for the rest of her life. Maybe it will prolong her life. Don't know, for the pain Chemo causes it sure

Never understood why people pick New Years Resolutions that they won't go through on. Why not simply pick something that you might want to do anyway. 2Yrs ago mine was, try a new restaurant once a week. This year and last, it is try new beers. I photograph each one i try and this is a collage of the ones I've tried in the past

Thats alot of New Beer looks like an enjoyable Resolution
rudeboy71:
Can't drink Wine or Hard Liquor @tbars, so beers all i got to feel mellow. And @pheny  all resolutions should be enjoyable. Don't know what person decided they need to be tough, much better to resolve to learn and try new things.

Prescription Sun Glasses.

And Bifocal Reading Glasses. Yah, I'm old as fuck. Just can't see so close more.

Best part was I got my eye test too. My doctor was rediculously hot. Just drop dead gorgeous. At least I could stare at her without being too creepy. Part of the test. We were talking about work and stuff and she told me she wanted to

A tenant brought us some Krispy Kremes. Both the guys I work with are diabetic. Can you say SUGAR High!

darrensgirl:
I love Krispy kremes!!!!! Very jealous right now lol x
rudeboy71:
You know @darrensgirl I felt the same until I finished the second one and then I just felt sick. I think I prefer the regular glazed ones but who the hell can say no to free donuts.

@tbars wrote a comment on my last blog that I almost answered in a very long reply. I thought I would just save it and write a blog instead.

So my whole life I've been called wired or strange. By friends, family or just plain strangers. And I never saw this as an insult but I always said thank you. I don't try to be...

Thing is, i never had a particular style growing up. I would wear a suit and tie one day and the very next day i would braid all my hair and wear a leather motorcycle jacket. I even dressed as priest once, black shirt with a white collar. In the middle picture is an example of my penchant for painting all my clothes. In it

Watch it @dicentra you might accidentally flip that switch that inflates my Ego. That button is only supposed to be used in case of emergency. As far as being awesome, it does take one to know one.
dicentra:
@rudeboy71 But it's those kind of weird comments that make me think you're awesome in the first place! Always have the best comments.

Taking a picture holding this box is much harder than I thought. I got a Wacom drawing tablet and once i learn to use it properly, I will be making some beautiful drawings with it. So freakin excited.

Can't wait to see what you come up with. And now you know how hard it can be for us girls to take selfies!
rudeboy71:
Thanks @tbars. Even worse, is how many pictures you gotta snap just to get a good one.

Started this a few years back.

Created this with my friend Dylan, who is a very good writer. He had a massive stroke a few years back and is still recovering.

Thanks Buddy. So far yes @dicentra but his wife won't let anyone call him just yet. Not sure how his speech is coming along but his facebook posts actually make sense when i read them.

Did this about 15yrs ago. A friend of mine wanted to do a Funk Superhero.

He wrote the whole thing, i only illustrated. I knew nothing about Funk, but i thought it would make for an interesting idea. Drink enough and smoke enough and just about anything becomes a good idea. This is as far as we got, he went though a divorce and i

I worked for a few years as a store artist at Tower Records. It's extinct now and sadly most of the pictures of my work are gone or lost. Didn't know how to airbrush but i learned how eventually. I always thought it odd that any store would have an artist doing actual art in a store. I never kept any of my work. Always
