Body language.  We communicate a lot by the way we stand, and the way we move… or the way we don’t move.

Body language.  Just remember, if you don’t want to talk to someone, and your body language says, “I’m randomly and uncontrollably violent, unreliably continent, inconsistently coherent, and just liable to leap into the air with my arms flapping around me”, then you don’t have to say it with either spoken or written language.  It’s just a time saver left over from when we were a race of cave dwellers with a three word vocabulary… and one of those words is rude and currently still disallowed on TV.

 

I had a point to make, but had so much fun making up that last bit that I forgot what it was.  Carry on.

Hubris- Cut Across, Shorty

It’s all about the motivation, ain’t it.

Anyhow,  news.  I FINALLY ordered the new stickers, so all of you who kindly put cash in the tip jar and provided your mailing addresses will finally be sent a Thank You.

Also, I’m several pages in (around 50) to setting up the next Hubris book, and there’s an awful lot of new comics to draw to fill in story bits and to feature the folks who sent photos and all earlier and then I didn’t get your preferred whacky sports into the storyline.

I have my old notes to go back through (also time consuming.  This is a tough book to put together) but if you want to be SURE that I get you and your preferred sort of appearance straight this time (or if that sounds like fun, and you want to pretend that you sent in a photo and a sport to compete in earlier when you send it in this time), NOW would be the time to email me with details.   I know CrazyAl wanted to be in some kind of pogo sticking competition or something… and I fear that some of you were in the background of some of the cartoons during the Great Stanky Creek OutdoorFest and either didn’t recognize my caricatures of you, or felt you should have been in a competition… well, let me know, willya?  I know its been a long time coming and I apologize for that.  Busy busy, you know.

The next book is looking like fun, though, and the extra content will make it a good item.

You don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.  Of course, you also shouldn’t take for granted that it’s a gift horse.

Hubris- Getting there is half the funny

I used to be baffled by people who put their bikes on cars and went somewhere to ride them.  Why not, I thought in my fourteen-year-old’s experience, ride your bike THERE and then see it, and ride HOME.  That silly idea (like most silly assumptions we make) stuck with me until I discovered that clearing the first twenty miles out of the way left more time to enjoy the actual ride at the destination. My wife taught me that.  Then I took it where I wanted, and the destinations became less about what interesting part of town, or another person’s interesting town, than about riding a piece of dirt that you REALLY REALLY enjoy but wouldn’t want to ride to on a bet because the car drivers around here are dumb as dirt.  But that’s another story.  Or maybe three.

Hubris- WorkFarce

I have (after much dawdling) designed, ordered, paid for and received a batch of Hubris helmet stickers.  I’ve already put two on my truck to see how they handle the outdoors and muck and sunshine and rain and filth. All the bikes and skateboards get ’em next.

I owe a great many to Jeff Outdoors and some to Won for having written lavishly nice product reviews for this site.  (If you haven’t bothered to look at the ‘Talk About Toys’ section of the site, shame on you.  You’re missing out on some extra humor and some good insight about outdoors stuff, plus coconut bras and testicle fires.)

I’m not saying a few stickers are good compensation for spending your time writing reviews about your outdoor stuff.  I’m not even saying that giving said stickers to your buddies will make you popular or even treated better than you are at the moment.

All’s I’m saying is that if you’re kind enough to write Hubris a usable product review about whatever toys you play with outdoors, I’ll happily mail you five or six stickers to slap on helmets or skate decks or bikes or snowmobiles… anything you own (meaning please don’t slap ’em on skateparks or bike racks that you didn’t pay for… c’mon, we all gotta play nice or the stuff we play on goes away and the grownups scowl at us for not being responsible for ourselfs.)
