Out Of My Mind

Just wanted to let everyone know that I added some links to my favorite webcomics in the sidebar.

Give a click, if you like. I think you will enjoy them.

My wife and I just brought home a new puppy this past week. Her name is Bailey and she is a West Highland Terrier or “Westie”. She has been a lot of fun and a lot of work. It’s just like having a baby in the house again in that she demands constant attention. But don’t worry she won’t interfere with my rigorous update schedule. As a matter of fact, I think having a puppy in the house will help with my webcomic.

How might you ask? More poop jokes people, more poop jokes.

See ya next week

This Friday I’ll be posting a very special episode of Out Of My Mind to celebrate Fathers Day. So come back and take a look. I promise it will be better then the pair of socks you’re gonna get.

P.S. Non-fathers welcome too.

Hey everyone. As I’m sure you have already noticed I have changed the look of the site. I still have a little work to do, but the comic is functioning as it should. I will most likely have everything polished up by the end of the week. So enjoy and I’ll see you later.

I went to my first comic con today and had a great time meeting some of my fellow web cartoonists. Including Brad Guiger, one of the guys who does the Webcomic Weekly podcast of which I am a big fan.

There was a lot of great artwork on display in Artist Ally*. It made me long for the day that I can sit behind a small table desperately hoping for someone, anyone to notice my work. It’s gonna be AWESOME!

* For those of you who don’t know Artist Ally is the area of a con where independent artist sit and sell their work and do personal sketches for their fans.

…or that’s what I thought back in the early 80’s. For those of you to young to remember, Starcade was a game show where two people would answer video game trivia questions and play arcade machines for 30 or 40 seconds to see who could get the high score. They would repeat this process for 30 minutes and the winner would get his own arcade tower to take home.

After watching some episodes this weekend I still find it entertaining, but not for the same reasons. Take episode 127 for instance. You get an 11yr old brat in the mold of Veruca Salt and a lot of awkward father son moments through out. Fast forward to 13:15 to see something I found particularly funny.

Just be warned if you had any nostalgia for this game show that will come to an end when you watch these videos.

I think it is safe to say that anyone who enjoys comics enjoyed Calvin & Hobbes. So ,I think you will find this link to some rare Bill Watterson art I found on a fellow web cartoonists website, interesting.

Back in the summer of 1990 I was working at the Trump Plaza in Atlantic City and I had a friend who worked at another casino. One day we agreed that I would meet him after work and we would hang out in the city for a few hours before heading home. So I walked down the boardwalk to wait for him outside his casino. While waiting I was watching Seagulls scavenge for food when one of the gulls took off and flew right at me. I was wondering what this bird had in mind when it veered up no more then three feet in front of me and shit right on my forehead as it passed by. Not the top of my head mind you. My Fucking Forehead! Right between the eyes. I was disgusted and embarrassed at the same time as there were people all around me who I am sure saw the whole thing.

I was thinking of that moment when I came up with this weeks(4/14/08) cartoon . I hope you enjoy it more then I did.

P.S. Have you ever had birdshit on your windshield right in front of you as you drove? You had to look at this shit the whole time because you didn’t have time to clean it off before you had to go. You knew if you tried to wash it off with the wipers it would only make it worse…….. I hate birds and their shit.
