A New Blog Form. A New Art Form?
I am experimenting with using a blog format to tell a
long Christmas short story. It includes photos,
drawings, animated gifs, photoons, music, secret rollovers —

Maybe we can do something about it. I suggest we form… Read full post »

The Manic Depressive Moron In The Mirror is Ruining My Life.
He says call it BiPolar. I think Manic and Depressive describes him better.
What he’s done lately is miss all our doctor appointments, so we can’t even get meds for our chemical imbalances, or the rash that is probably caused by our Type2 Diabetes. And he won’t even sti… Read full post »
