Morty Comix # 2662



Morty Comix # 2662 was sent to Buzz Buzzizyk in Butler, PA. Buzz himself supplied the paper, already cut and folded, and challenged me to get off my butt and draw some more. Buzz has permission to enhance them and distribute them as he sees fit. So you can probably expect to get some updates on what happens to these little guys as time passes.

Hey, it is one of those "Incredible Journey" tales involving a tropical bird, a dial phone, and Monkey Parts Guy as they walk across America in an effort to get home!

Morty Comix # 2661



 





Morty Comix # 2661 was tucked under an outside table apparently used as a break spot in an alley for drugstore employees in Tumwater, Washington. This distribution point is not far from where I hid  Morty Comix # 2634, which was still where I left it in August, as pictured in the last photo.

The Woodrow Wilson Song

Woodrow Wilson
Was a bit of a prick.
Up his butt
Was a great big stick.
And not the kind 
That Teddy liked to carry.
It was a rod of righteousness
And frankly pretty scarey.

On the one hand
He was racist
On the other hand
Progressive.
After the Great War
His hunt for Reds
Was too Excessive.

He fought
For the League of Nations.
Then 
He had a stroke.
He got a "F"
in Political relations.
And his spirit
Broke.

Maybe if he hadn't
Been such a goody-goody,
More people
Would've been his friend
And hailed him
As "Woody."

The Irv Newhouse Building, Capitol Campus, Olympia, Washington

When photo essays of the Cap Campus are released, portraying all that Doric splendor, somehow the Newhouse Building is seldom included. Hmm. I wonder why?
