I thought about writing “Don’t you hate it when you catch yourself doing the very thing you hate in others?”
But I’ve been spending time on Facebook, and I’ve just about decided that none of us notice when we do the exact same stuff we hate in others, and for those very special few who DO realize they do it, the response doesn’t seem to be chagrin, but a kind of weird pride.
As a cartoonist, I’d like to thank humankind for being so human.
Remember Bob Newhart’s old telephone routines? Where you only got half the conversation, and your own brain filling in the other half was part of what made it funny?
If you answered “No,” then you need to check out ‘The Button Down Mind of Bob Newhart’ from, I dunno, about fifty years ago or something. And get it on LP, for heaven’s sake. That’s how you’re supposed to listen to that stuff. With a big ol’ cardboard sleeve photo to look at instead of video.
I like podcasts. You can listen and draw at the same time. (Not write, but draw. Different skills. Y’know.)
This week, I did the cover art for The DrabbleCast.
This is it before they dolled it up with logo and title:
Go ye and listen to the DrabbleCast, especially if you like having creepifying stories told unto you. I’ve listened to a lot of podcasts to find the best ones, and this is one of them. Many podcasts have I downloaded, only to listen and unsubscribe, dejected. Not so The Drabblecast. I found it pretty early and it’s stayed put ever since.
If you haven’t listened to podcasts, or audiobooks, or such stuff. Try it out. You may think you’ve outgrown having someone read to you, but you haven’t.
