The Old Water Hole

Back when I was pregnant!

Ha! I was looking through some old photo albums recently when I discovered this polaroid taken when I was 24 weeks along in my pregnancy back in 1989. __Okay, so I wasn't preggers, but just having some fun with my wife (and dalmatian, Samantha) in the nursery before we started decorating it.___Oh, I felt it kick!

Hanging with the boys in Lincoln, NE!

This Friday I will be hitching a ride over to Lincoln, NE, with my friends, Tom Richmond and Cedric Honstadt! We are part of the North Central Chapter of the National Cartoonists Society, and on Saturday we will be doing some serious judging of a particular category for the NCS Reuben Awards (to be held later this year in New Jersey). But first we have to get through (survive) our social time Friday night!___I can't wait!
