Morty Comix # 2666

Morty Comix # 2666 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.

Morty Comix # 2665

Morty Comix # 2665 was given to my old friend Rex as part of his birthday card. As you can see the card had a fart joke and comes with a sound effect! Pretty classy, huh? He has a law degree and I have a masters, and with all that education this is about as classy as it gets.

Dionne Warwick Sings Bacharach

On My Way

As you might have guessed, I'm trying to find some of the more offbeat but good versions of Burt Bacharach's compositions. Dionne Warwick is great, but certainly not offbeat since she is more or less Bacharach's official vocalist. However, this song is very obscure and late in Burt's career, so that's my excuse for finally giving the very excellent Ms. Warwick a spot in this blog. On My Way is sung during the opening credits of the 2000 film, Isn't She Great.

Morty Comix # 2663 was left under a bench cushion outside the entrance to the Washington State Senate gallery in the Legislative Building, Olympia, Washington.

Business had earlier taken me to the Governor's Mansion, but I was a good boy and resisted planting one there! I do have my boundaries in this game.
