Mark Heath thru Drawn! brought Jim Borgman’s blog to my attention and it’s fascinating reading.
Yeesh! What can’t this guy do?!

Yes MAM!
My father-in-law sent this to me…
The Milwaukee Art Museum has a nice exhibition coming up. The Masters of American Comics runs April 29 – August 13, 2006 and features McCay, Herriman, and Schulz to name just a few.
This is gonna be after Bonnie arrives, but maybe if grandma and grandpa don’t mind taking the kids for the day, the Mrs. and I can take a nice little write-off-able day trip.
So often stuff like this seems to pass us in the ol’ Midwest by. I can’t tell you how many exhibits I hear about in New York or California. You’d think Chicago would get some more of this.
Anyway, check it out…

Tinkering
OK, so my web guys and I have been working on some new stuff for everyone’s favorite cartoon website.
Most of it won’t even be visible to all but the most observant users, but it’s going to make administration for me a dream. Seriously, this is going to be like every MySQL dream I’ve ever had.
It’s a big big BIG change. We’re basically ripping out the guts of the site and replacing it with a shiny new engine. If we’ve done it right you shouldn’t notice a thing, but, of course, there’s probably gonna be a few glitches.
That being said, I’d like to thank everyone who visits the site, gets the daily email, subscribes to the blog toon, or whatever else you can come up with in advance for your patience. Trust me, it’ll be worth it down the line.
We have some crazy stuff coming down the pike that’ll knock your browser’s socks off.
Hang in there…

Once More, I’m Back…
OK, I’m gonna have to create a new category for “sorry I’ve been gone so long” entries.
Well, there’s a lot to catch up on…
Firstly, as previously noted, we’re officially moved into the new place! I can even find most everything I’m looking for, unless it’s garage related; that looks like a tool filled dirty bomb was detonated.
We’ve ordered some new furniture and I’m working on getting my office set up. I’d show you some pics, but I want the final reveal (thank you “Trading Spaces”) to really knock your socks off.
We’ve also found out what the upcoming Anderson addition’s gender will be… CAUTION! SPOILERS AHEAD!
According to the ultrasound tech who called Henry right, we’re going to be welcoming Bonnie Elizabeth Anderson to the family tree!
Let’s see… I also found out I’ve been accepted into the National Cartoonist Society!
Some of my cartoon buddies have been trying to get me to get on board for some time so I finally filled out the ap, gathered my recommendations, provided my urine sample, and sent it all in. And they BIT!
SUCKERS!!!
Seriously, I’m looking forward to seeing what all the hub-bub is about. At the very least I should get some cool pics at the Reubens in Chicago this year.
Oh, I had a toon in Reader’s Digest recently and I think I have one in the current special edition of HBR. Check ’em out.
Well, that’s about it for now. Like I said, I’ll try to get some pics up as soon as I have something good to show you. And I promise to try to get some decent blogs flowing again.
See ya in a bit…
