Never the Twain Shall Meet

Mark Twain is one of the historical figures I’d kneel at the feet of… ….if’n I had H.G. Wells’ Time Machine. So, reckon I won’t. For a dead guy, Twain taught me a LOT!  I wanted to BE Huckleberry Finn, but the boys across the street made me play Becky Thatcher. The bitches. At any [...]

H.G. Wells is Better Than Me

The young H.G. Wells was just too damn handsome for me to draw.  I painted the lily.  And besides being a turn of the 20th century hottie and brilliant, imaginative storyteller, he knew what he was talking about when not writing books: Affliction comes to us, not to make us sad but sober; not to [...]

Governor’s Taint Gets All Over South Carolina

Glitter Graphics I’m just saying, keeping your dick in your pants goes a hell of a lot farther in protecting the institution of marriage than denying it to gay people. South Carolina Governor Mark Sanford’s taint was stinking up the state capital as routine business on drunk driving and falling tax revenues went on. Dozens [...]

Poe Folks

Most of us are exposed to the work of Edgar Allan Poe in the American Education system. Thank God! It takes a special intensity to return to him after the school assignments are over. As a kid, he was a good place for me to go when I wanted to feel dread.   In fact, [...]

GOP Comedy FAIL!!!!

Are these buggers ever gonna learn??? I started to write a bit on this “joke” circulated by a legislative aid to Sen. Diane Black of Tennessee, and my 11 year old brother and 10 year old nephew walked in and were APPALLED by the image. I decided to extract some wisdom from the youngsters and [...]

GOP Woke Up On the Retarded Side of the Bed

Republicans reason the confirmation of Sotomayer should take longer because she has more experience…more cases to delve through.  They plan to review 6 of her 3600+ cases per day before (if?) she can be confirmed.  If conservatives still knew how to do math, they’d tell you that means she’d be confirmed some time in 2011. [...]

Portrait of an Artist as a Young Dude

The one year round resident of Andy’s Motel is an artist and a college student.  Justin Weinmann.   The same day I met Justin is the same day I saw his portfolio.  I’d heard about him for months before meeting him.   I had to see his work!  And we’ve been friends for a few [...]

Ya Ass is Old!!! You should Know Better!!!

So, I mentioned I’m helping my parents at their beach side motel!!! When I see old folks, I expect a little respectability, a little wisdom to have blossomed with years of experience in living. Okay, I am on the Redneck Riviera.   I know. Day One: I wondered if Room 226 was going to be a [...]
