FOLIO OLIO: 13

It's all ceramics...

Ballard Street is, by far, my most favorite cartoon...

For my nephew, Bruce...the one who didn't make that great map of my trip...

Foam movie prop brick...

I had a dear friend who made props for movies. He built the set for "Ragtime". In his yard he had a hunk of styrofoam that he had formed with a blowtorch and spray painted to look alike a very real large rock. The first time you visited him, he would act like he was struggling to pick it up, then he would throw it at you....scaring the shit out of the victim.

There is a controversy over who this Nick Beef is, buried next to Lee Harvey Oswald...

"Let's take a quiet drive in the country..."

"...along with the other two million fucking leaf oglers."

And it's usually people like this that feel superior to people of other faiths or skin color...

Long, but interesting...

Could you dine knowing...KNOWING that someone just pissed only inches from your leg?

Premier League by nation...

Not this skillfully, of course, but I taught all my students how to do this...

Gulf War I; 100 hours from start...

Why not to honk at a biker with...

...anger issues.

My friend, Jack, went to India when he was looking for "The Truth"...

This image reminded me of the guy he met who would stand, then lay down on his stomach, then stand up at the place where is head was, then repeated that inch-worm maneuver all over India. He was looking for "The Truth" also.

There was some news that the baguette industry is threatened in France...

This is a stick-on that goes around your computer camera...as a reminder...

You think Asians have tattoos like this?

Well....

I really would like to think that this is true...

Did you notice the band-aid?

I love this image. But if I found out that it had been manipulated in a computer, I would call it cheating.

Art photography doesn't just happen...

You have got to watch this until the very end...

He probably didn't live anyway...but at least he made it to the internet.

Egyptian violence excessive?

If Americans did things like this and/or threw fire bombs and set buildings on fire....

I predict that scenes like this would be child's play...

Sometimes I see an image and I'm not sure if I've shared it before. I think that I have, in fact, shared this, but it is so marvelous...on many levels...that I offer it to you again...

When I use the bathroom at somebody else's house, I compliment them on their hand soap to make them think I washed my hands.

This is a public school 8th grade test from 1912, and well worth the read....

Now tell me we haven't been dumbed down.

Well, well, well...

"You are limited only by your imagination." You have to admit, that leaves A LOT of room for creativity.

My wife is so ugly, when she walks into a bank they turn off the camera.
(that is so untrue)

Taxidermy and case sold at auction house Christie...

Nothing says extreme agility like "Oh my god a spider!"

Just walk away like a fucking boss...

The worst thing a parent could say to you is "what happened to my little girl?" Especially if they're talking to their son. I know the pain.

It's call Airburst Artillery for a reason...

Jim Carrey doing Clint Eastwood...

Teachers called it cheating. I called it teamwork.

Girl, is there anyone in your household who is allowed to offer any fashion advice?

I can guarantee her children would not approve....unless they are home schooled.

Iron foot and racism, all on one table...

This sickens me...

Hoes be like "Hoes be like...." But they be the hoes that be like.

There is something about me and parking garages...

Short of writing it on my arm, I can never even remember my level, much less where on that level my car is parked....and that's fucking true.

Finished the New York Times Sunday crossword in under an hour. One clue I liked especially:
Low notes......subtitles.

I had to remind my wife of this often during our trip...

Like, she got embarrassed when I asked for a corndog at that fancy restaurant. I said, "We will never see these people again for the rest of our lives."
That did nothing to abate her horror.

See, that old woman forgot my most favorite five words...

Be forewarned. When she says "light housework", it's not even close to "lighthouse work", which I though would be cool as shit.

If rednecks had been created first, that bitch would have thrown away the apple and fried up that fucking snake and started eating it before its tail stopped twitching.

Tsar Putin......no.....

"Not in front of the camera, you fool."

Well, of course it does...

As a griller myself, this is one of man's unexplained mysteries...

Goddamn, Nigerian viewers, I would love to get a comment or two from you guys. I have no idea why I have so many viewers from your lovely homeland, but…hey, thanks.

Taking "naps" sounds so childish. I now perfer to call them "horizontal life pauses."

I would love to have a dog named Achilles, and keep telling him to heel even though I had never taught him how, then when someone commented I would say, "That's his weakness."

If something "goes downhill" it means it worsens, but if we say things like "it's an uphill battle" it means it's difficult. There's no winning when it comes to hills.

Somewhere along the line, she crossed it....

I just poured Super-Glue into a non-stick pan. Somebody is about to be proven wrong.

You may have noticed that I post many isolated comic panels. They mesmerize me....
