Hot Blooded

Debbie has returned for a little more one-on-one time with Bud, but his friendship to Jeff stands in his way of a good time. Rock and a hard place time, man!
Title is from Foreigner. Another one of those words that screws up the “I” before “E” crap…

Pop Goes the Pringles!

Long Weekend! At least for us USA folks… I need a break and this is turning into a 4-day weekend for me as I’m going to do as little as possible today and try to relax.
Big race Sunday… Coca Cola 600 is the longest race for NASCAR and usually we see some tempers flare. I [...]

I'm A Man

Bud comes up with a creative way to get around a bar manager who’s a chauvinistic creep. Well, perhaps I did…
There were always these “scary” manager types at the bars I played at. They’d greet you at the door with a growl and only smiled when they kept your money. I quickly learned I could [...]

Mother Goose

Today’s comic gets the band rehearsing and allows me to “nod my hat” to Chuck Jones.
In 1943, Jones directed a Warner Bros. Bugs Bunny cartoon called “Super Rabbit” wherein Bugs obtains Superman like powers from a fortified carrot. After the scientist explains what Bugs can do, our “hero” jumps into a nearby phone booth (in [...]

Rock and Roll Band

One of my many memories from the 70s was eating pizza on the hood of my best friend’s Skylark outside this greasy pizza joint. The pizzeria at the time was kinda dark, scuzzy and not very inviting, so we ordered our pizza, a 6-pack of RC cola and then retired to the hood of his [...]

Litter Bud

True story. This is why I started this comic; to tell my “vast” stories of my college days. Seems I was quite the little trouble-maker in my own little fashion. Seems this Illinois State Trooper was having a bad day when he pulled up (quietly too) and caught me in the act of “pinching a [...]

Mother’s Pride

My attempt at wishing mothers everywhere a happy day. And if I was ever in trouble (and when wasn’t I?), it would be my Mom that got the call.
My Mom passed away 22 years ago and I like to dedicate most of my creative stuff to her as my sense of humor and artistic talents [...]

It’s Over 9000!!

 Today strip is to remind everyone that the comic does actually take place in 1977 as I reference a rather big story from the summer of ‘77.
The title is a little nod to those anime nuts who love Dragon Ball Z. My middle son has like all the DVDs and lets me in on some [...]

Head On

Today’s comic is based on a semi-true story from my college days. (Duh, aren’t they all?)
I was driving home, slightly loaded, and it was snowing like hell. Now, my old ‘69 Chevy had posi-traction; meaning power was applied to BOTH back wheels, giving you “positive-traction.” With this “ability” I plowed my way through the heavy [...]

Fireball!

Story-time! In 1966, my family spent the summer in San Jose, California as my Dad took some Masters Degree course work or something. Anyway, being 9 years old and living in a 2 bedroom apartment with 6 people (4 of which were my sisters and mom) I spent nearly the entire summer OUTSIDE. On TV [...]
