This is my father and my Uncle Bill. The two are related by marriage only, however when they say “brother” to each other it feels more real and genuine than when I say it to my biological brother. My father was an only child and Billy was a real blessing. He’d always wanted a brother and he got a good one.

When my friend Gary Tyrell over at Fleen.com saw I was going to have my sister-in-law knit me a Doctor Who scarf, he twittered me to let me know he had one he was willing to part with. His mom knit it for him when he was younger and it’s not getting used much these days. I was reluctant to take something that was made from a mother’s heart, but he assured me she would be happy to see it getting use. So I took him up on the offer. The scarf is huge, warm, soft and long. Even wrapped around my neck twice it reaches past my knees and I’m 6’4” tall. It’s an awesome scarf. I just wish it stayed cold enough here to enjoy it more than a couple days a year. Hopefully, I’ll get more use out of it in Seattle.

We won't shaft you on prices

  • Ashely: Seimens
  • Me: Heh he he hhe heeee...
  • Ashley: Someone actually named their company that.
  • Me: It's so stupid. Nobody is going to take you seriously.
  • Ashley: Yeah, but It's spelled S-E-I-
  • Me: It doesn't matter HOW it's spelled. People still hear the word in their head and think of Jizz.
  • Ashley: People, or YOU?
  • Me: They should just call their company Cumstains.
  • Me: "We'll shoot you in the eye...with savings."

Gordon Biersch brunch menu

  • Scott: I think I'm going to order the Monte Cristo.
  • Angela: yeah?
  • Scott: Do you think it'll be good?
  • Angela: You're chasing that Bennegins Monte Cristo, and nothing ever tastes like it.
  • Scott: Yeah. I just...I want one.
  • Regean: The Count of Monte Cristo was a good movie, so...
  • Scott: Yeah. That's true.
  • Scott: A really good Monte Cristo is served to you while you're bricked into a wall.
  • Angela: WHAT?!
  • Scott: Isn't that in that story?
  • Angela: That's The Cask of Amontillado!
  • Scott: Oh. Right. Damn. That was almost a perfect joke.

Bella reclining Anyone who says that Webcomics don’t have something special with their readers needs to hear about Bella. We found out today that Bella has Entropion, a curling in of her lower eyelid. It’s going to require a simple surgery. I twittered about it and hours later I have been provided, by readers, a dog eye specialist in my area who comes highly recommended. If that happens with newspaper cartoonists, I’ll eat my hat.

Two of my favorite people in the world. I find it interesting that my father chose to wear a Granite Construction Company shirt on the first official day of his retirement. I think it’s symbolic. Dad worked at Granite before I was born and the day this photo was taken he woke up for the first time knowing he never would go to work again. I always knew one day I would end up here. That I would grow up and be a cartoonist and be married to a beautiful and formidable woman and that one day my dad would retire. But now it’s here. Now it’s today. It’s just just something that is assumed I’ll reach one day in the future. I bet you didn’t think all that was in this photo, did you?

Blamimations with Kris and Scott→

This is a new project I’m working on that debuted on Christmas. I’m very excited about it. Not only is it a creative outlet outside of the work I’ve been molding over a decade, it’s a collaborative project with my best friend.
