Odds and Ends from my brain and interests. Given that it is meant to be much like my old cartoon strip at the Lowell Connector, I suppose it is eponymous (I also like that it does make an oxymoron of sorts)

If there is to be anything here of any regularity it should be about sci-fi, computers, technology, and scale modeling with origami thrown in on the side (at least not infrequently). Oh, I would also expect some cartooning too

Sunday Comic: Life on Mars

©1996,2011
originally 9/24/96

Take a look at the spaceman
Chatting up some red stone
Oh man! Wonder if he'll ever know
He's in the best selling show
Is there life on Mars?

Sunday Comic: Starry, Starry Night

©1996, 2010

Kind of fitting for the holiday season although the original commemorated my experience with the Great Comet of 1996, or Comet C/1996 B2 Hyakutake which I got to see that spring in the dark skies of southern New Hampshire. There's a color version below (originally meant for halftone printing so it was done in a very black and white format).

Sunday Comic: Biohazard Bunny

Arisia 2011 created an open invitation for volunteer T-shirt design this year. While I was nicely complimented on my entry, it didn't make it. I have to admit it needed a more helpful caption than mine had. On the other hand I'll always wonder if things would have been different if I had captioned it ...

Biohazard Bunny to the rescue!

 Well, actually to the rescue of its fellow genetically enhanced lab rabbits regardless of collateral damage. After all, Biohazard Bunny has a heavily armed saucer and does travel.
Perhaps I'm venting some of my issues with our own house bunny (a veritable poop machine and arch enemy of USB cables, garbage bags, and geraniums).

Sunday Comic: Moby DEC

©1995,2010


  Originally from December of '95. The result of a frazzled sketch on a whiteboard drawn sometime in the wee hours of working on final projects and a long series of failures to compile. The following morning complimented by my office mates, I took a picture and then redrew it for the school paper. I realized it was a very common sentiment.

Oh, I know it's not the literal quote, but I nonetheless made a point of crediting Ahab and not Khan.

Well, due to technical difficulties I had to hunt stuff down. So deep down in the annals of my ASCII art I found my old holiday sig, which is in Castellano or otherwise Spanish. So for the Spanish speakers who are still working off the turkey triptophans from Thanksgiving here in the US of A, enjoy (particularly the children of the stormy 60's who would know the melody).

Sunday Comic

This was originally meant as a "rally sign" submission for John Stewart's "Rally to Restore Sanity"("and or fear") "Sane or Not"contest. Alas, every machine with any kind of art software went on the fritz around that time, and by the time I got Gimp downloaded and installed (and back into its particular idiosyncrasies), well the submission deadline had passed. So, now for your enjoyment...consider this thought to inject a little sanity into your life.
