Morty Comix # 2479

Morty Comix # 2479 was left in one of the public bulletin boards in McCleary, Washington. The main grocery store (with a great staff!) has some James Abbott murals on the side. Nadine is the only vehicle in the parking lot. This building was constructed in the 1940s and some say it is haunted.

In the last photo on the far left you get a glimpse of the seamy underbelly back alley in our thriving metropolis.

Buttons - Youth Programs - 1970s?

Honorary Police

Burlington, Iowa

Buttons are not something I collect, they just sort accumulate here. I have absolutely no idea how this particular specimen found its way to my house. I have never visited Burlington, Iowa. In fact I've only been through Iowa on a train long ago and never actually set foot on the soil of the Hawkeye State.

It looks like this originally had a soft metal flap at the top that could be used to fold over a shirt pocket but has long since broken off. To remedy that situation someone used blue electrical tape to hold a safety pin on the reverse side.

Favorite Movie Quotes: Phenomenon

"Why do you have to tear him down? What are you so afraid of? What do you got to lose? He wasn't selling anything. He didn't want anything from anybody. He want nothing from nobody! Nothing! Nothing! And you people have to tear him down so you can sleep better tonight? So you can prove that the world is flat and sleep better tonight? Am I right? I'm right. To Hell with all of you. The Hell with everyone."

How to Fix a Leaky Ceiling the Cartoonist Way

Not too long ago we experienced some severe wind and rain and one of the ceiling panels in my office out in Tumwater, Washington developed this stain from a leak. I am sure there are better ways to repair this, but none of them are as fun as the cartoonist method.
