Chapter:

Time flies when you’re having fun, but slows down when your anticipation is high, or when you’re very alert.  I guess these guys are learning that your watch and your memories are never going to match up particularly well…

Hubris- The architect’s children live in a fridge box…

Chapter:

You may have heard the old saying “The cobblers children run barefoot” or “The tinker’s family eats from wooden bowls” or any of a half-dozen versions thereof.

It means that if it’s YOUR thing, your clients get better treatment than your family, mostly ’cause you can do family stuff “any ol’ time”, but it’s not that important.

But when it comes to doing something you’d LOVE to trade your career for?  Your beloved Hobby?  You put so much time into it that it becomes self-defeating anyhow.

And so- Kara and Steven are working hard at pleasing their need to make a fantastic boat, and their need to show how much they know about kayaks and physics around one another.  Those two things, added together, means that nobody’s paying attention to the clock.

Hubris- Balanced View

Chapter:

Every so often, I notice that the digital folder that I keep all the Hubris stuff in is named ‘Hubris In Color’.  I chuckle.  I made that folder when I decided to do the Hubris website, and that I would add color to the comic strips that were, after all, just ‘black and white newspaper strips’… color dailies in the newspaper being things you couldn’t rely on from newspaper to newspaper, it was so new.

How things change.  We still ‘dial’ a phone, we still ‘tape’ video… and ‘Hubris In Color’ is still there as a spoof on the old original Star Trek commercials (“IN COLOR!”).  And the words just get funnier to those of us who see the cobwebs on them.

 

PS.  I just double-checked to make sure this post would go up correctly and saw that I have an ad for Banana Triangle right there on Hubriscomics.com. I’m glad.  I like Banana Triangle.  Look and see if the ad is still up.  If you haven’t read it, by all means, go check it out.  It gets pretty crazy now and then. You might want to start at the beginning.

Classy

So, I was on St.Simon’s Island, GA.  It’s a very nice place. And there, in the middle of a great vacation spot, is GlynnArt. 

They’re currently hosting a show of Jack Davis art.  If you don’t know his name, don’t worry.  I can explain to you who he is very easily.

He was there for the old EC ‘Tales From The Crypt’ comics, and when Mad comics (for whom he drew their SECOND cover) became MAD magazine, Jack stayed with ’em. He also drew uncounted covers for Time, and Reader’s Digest, and more titles than you want to have listed.  Amazing man with an amazing career- which isn’t over yet, I should add.  He’s still knocking out work.

Egomaniac that I am, when asked if I could participate in the opening weekend of the show, I jumped at it.  I taught two classes (originally  I stepped in as a replacement teacher of the Inking With A Brush class for adults, when a few weeks before the opening, the space was vacated)  Then, friend John Read had to skip out and spend some time at a hospital bedside, I became the childrens’ Cartooning 101 teacher.

Here are photos of my classes…  Hey guys!  Hope you enjoyed the lesson!

There was some video shot.  If Jonathon sends me the link, I’ll pass it on to you guys… even though the sound of my own too-loud, too-nasal, too-weird voice on playback makes me cringe.
