The comic title is from Harry Nilsson’s “Nilsson Schmilsson” album. It is one of many songs that featured a great bass guitar line performed by the great Klaus Voormann that inspired me to be a bassist. But I have to say it was the Who’s John Entwistle that inspired me the most. Never played like [...]
This was inspired by a very brief but very funny cameo appearance made by the Three Stooges in the movie “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World” that came out in like 1963 and had just about every comedian known to man-kind in it in some form. The Stooges are firemen at an small airport [...]
A small break from Latvia to see how things are going while Bud and Jeff are away from home (a great BTO song from their “Head On” album). For those of you with short attention spans… Poco is Jeff’s pet dragon lizard and when he turned a year old, he started sneezing fire. Makes for interesting [...]
A little Cheech & Chong for your morning! Class… The comic title is done by tons of groups, but I’ve always liked the Beatles version from like 1965 or thereabouts, especially the rockin’ MONO mix which is very hard to find. Those old mono mixes were much heavier on guitar and John/George punched right through [...]
Jeff is just practical, that’s all. Oh, and he’s smoking a real cigarette, not one of them fancy ones! Speaking of smelling… I have no sense of smell. I have never had one as a result of a birth defect. All told, it’s been rather minor in my life, except I can’t taste a thing [...]
Oh yes, the swill known as Billy Beer was quite the surprise to most beer drinkers. Let’s just say it was not the best beer I ever had… and I drank cheap beer most weekends… For those of you to young or too stoned to remember, Billy Beer was marketed by Billy Carter, then President [...]
Heh-heh… a little poke at the KGB of 1977… It is my understanding that hotel rooms of visiting westerners were bugged… seems kinda crazy but it was different age for sure. Like the USA doesn’t do that, eh? HA! A little trivia… the door should say in Russian “Hotel California” and on the speaker box [...]
A nod of the baseball cap to the Latvian Olympic Mens Volleyball team who beat the Amercian team 2-0 in an upset in the first round of the Olympic Beach Volleyball games. Not sure of their final placement, but the Americans sure had their hands full. Maybe too much Red Bull… Oh, the title is [...]
I over-write a lot of the comics. They start off as they long-winded scripts then I normally knock them down as I lay them out in Manga Studio. This time, I noticed that I had essentially two different jokes in one script. Today’s comic was the beginning of Friday’s comic, where Robyn and Lorraine play [...]
The backgrounds on this one wore me out. I wish I had more time to work on these! This one is for all those folks who suddenly realized after working on something for hours, that all you had to do was something really simple… like the first frame of this darn comic. I did it [...]
