I’ve posted before about Heaven is a Hotel, but the situation requires a follow-up. The voting for the KRNU Top 100 is nearing an end, and so I’m lobbying the listeners for votes for HiaH’s “Second Story Man.” I’m not asking for people who don’t know the song to vote for it, but if you […]

…but here are my nieces, Miqaela and Melany, on Halloween.

This is a little bit of documentary work, but did any of you 1. want to grow up to be a superhero when you were a kid and / or 2. dress up as a superhero for Halloween one year AND have pictures to prove it?

Since the Journal Star’s website decided to run a Dave Nabity file photo for their 2006 election preview instead of their own artwork (which was on the front page of the print edition), I thought I’d share it here. Also, I am a big fan of seeing the various stages that go into making any […]

A good portion of my web hits lately have to be credited to google’s image search. I traced it back to a basketball message board – a Jesus / basketball discussion started, and someone googled “jesus hoops” and found this – one of my most popular cartoons ever. Jesus made a lot of cameos in […]

At cagle.com, in reaction to the nearly-identical Rosa Parks cartoons, they’ve got a blog post from cartoonist Mike Lester on the issue. It raises a point that, in my disgust, I hadn’t even considered: I’m curious and -not that they need defending, but I would like to believe that a great many in our profession […]

Give an editorial cartoonist a forum, and he’ll talk about how it’s a shrinking field, how cartoonists are losing their relevance, how papers are opting for syndication rather than the unique voice of their staff cartoonist, blah blah blah. Look at what the brilliant minds of our nation’s finest have to say upon the death […]

Long-time readers of this blog may remember my encounter with Elmo from March. What started out as an innocent encounter for the purposes of my niece’s Elmo-viewing pleasure turned into something much more bizarre. Well, in the past few days, you may have seen a story making the rounds about Elmo getting arrested. Just know […]

I really doubt any Lefler 6th through 8th graders will ever read this, but they put on a great show today. The “Lefler in Action” club put on Leflerpalooza, which, as I posted earlier, was a way to show off what the after school clubs have been up to this quarter. I was really proud […]

Monday at Lefler Middle School (roughly 48th and Randolph) at 5pm is Leflerpalooza – the showcase of what all the after-school clubs have been working on. Although the newspaper and comic book clubs haven’t quite panned out to what we’d hoped, I’m still really proud of all three of my groups. The film club (DAVE, […]
