Chapter: Comic

Did someone point out that Hubris was supposed to be sharp enough to have brought a tent?

Yes, I think you did.

And yes, you’re right.

He brought it.

Too late now, of course.

Hubris is doing what we all wish we could do, right?

You get a few dollars in the ol’ bank account and then you go live it up doing exactly what you’ve been hoping to do for years and years.

Yessir. Happiness is retirement.

Hubris- It’s an OKAYstition, but not SUPER…

Aug26

Chapter: Comic

It’s one of those things you should look up, once you realize. What the heck IS a ‘stition’, and why is a ‘super’ one so silly? Are regular Stitions NOT silly?

All I know is, you darn well better take a rainfly and a raincoat on camping trips. The one time everyone in the car thought that someone else had brought the tent? Yeah, it rained. No other way THAT one could have happened. We slept under a tarp. With holes in it. I think we might have tied it up with boot laces. It was a long evening anyhow.

Now that I’ve thought a little more about it, we need to find two SUPER competitive people. One of them, convinced that the bad luck of black cats crossing your path is the worst kind of thing, pitted against the other, who is absolutely positive that breaking a mirror will cause the most horrific bad luck. Provide them with an open space, a few black cats and a few mirrors, and things will get lively for a good long while, don’t you think?

Hubris- Rainmaker

Feb27

Chapter: Comic

You’ve been on ‘That’ trip, right? You check the weather, you figure the time of year, you juggle the odds… “Oh, I guess I don’t need to pack a rain jacket.” That ups your chances for rain, by, say, fifty percent.

Forget your tent? It will storm.

If you are smart, though, and bring a rain suit, a three season tent, tarps, rope, umbrellas and a marquee, it probably won’t rain. If you also bring a case of those little throwaway ponchos for everyone on your camping trip who DIDN’T pack rain gear? Area drought. Be careful- you don’t want the local river to dry up in case there’s kayaking that weekend.

Like the scouts, be prepared. Bring stuff so you won’t need it.

the pain of the rain…

So, here is the shot. The one that cost me a burned arm. My wife has completed her editing and allowed me to post. Whattaya think?

I was flingin’ sparks from the left. It was a thirty second exposure. What that means is that real life didn’t look quite like this- to the standing observer, the sparks weren’t in long clean lines, but were individual sparks falling along the paths you see here. And there weren’t this many all at the same time. What you’re seeing is a whole half-minute of life frozen into a single image. Also, the sky was black to everyone standing there. The camera collected all the light in the sky the whole time and that makes it seem like it’s still blue to the naked eye.

Neat, huh?

Hubris- Good Grief

Dec12

Chapter: Comic

And so winds down the first day of the Outdoorfest.

I had to throw in a little tip o’ the hat to Charles Schulz. I am, categorize me any way you like, a cartoonist. And I’m old enough to remember that I wanted to learn to read partly so I would know what Charlie Brown was saying. After drawing three sets of ‘And then the rain started’ cartoons, it was time to wrap that up… but I couldn’t get Charlie Brown on his pitcher’s mound out of my head, so I put it on paper, sorta. That usually gets it out of my head, anyhow.

Also, it’s 12-12-12. Anybody care? Has the world ended? No? Well, Australia would have called or something if things were going wrong. It was 12-12-12 there yesterday. Now we gotta wait out 12-21-12 and see if the New-Ager “Raise-Your-Vibrations” crowd gets their monumental Ascendance or Transcendence or whatever the %$#@ they’re expecting. Can you tell if I expect they’re gonna get it?

Oh, and I’d like to point out that I have tried to skate on a wet ramp. The rain WON’T hurt you. The wet ramp, on the other hand, can snap a bone for you.

Pow. There you go.
