Bird crap on the windshield has a certain beauty at some point of view.

Nadine was displeased.

Favorite Movie Quotes: Wagons East

 

"Square the wagons!"

Screw the critics. I liked this film. It was original. It was humanist. And it is funny. John Candy (1950-1994) was a true North American actor. He was born in Ontario, became famous in the U.S., and died in Mexico while making this film.

He was wonderful in SCTV. I hope in Heaven you finally got your crane shot, Johnny LaRue. We still miss you.

I didn't know the word "Idaho" was a registered trademark word. Did you hear about the Idaho State Legislature? They are divided between the Potato Party and the Horse Party, always cancelling each out with eye votes and neigh votes.

A nice way to personalize a blah asphalt area, and it is very McCleary.

Morty Comix # 2486

Morty Comix # 2486 was placed on top of the employee lockers in a Subway sandwich shop in Montesano, Washington. I notice that clock in the last photo is way off track. By 4:30 this time of year we are in the dark.

Morty Comix # 2484

Morty Comix # 2484 was slid onto a high windowsill at the McCleary Post Office. There are now three Morty Comix hiding in this facility, the first two have been there for months.

This issue begins a subseries where I am trying out a new pen that seems to have an impact on the final drawing. The ink stays wet, which is not good for us left-handers, so my method of drawing has changed. We old dogs can learn new tricks.
