Brett Waldon was my successor as the Daily Nebraskan cartoonist. He started off working a few days a week as I was winding down, and he took over full-time in the fall of 2003. What was really amazing about Brett was that he had “it” right away – a well-defined style, a very well-defined sense […]
Well, the Daily Nebraskan is once again under fire from the Greek system, who can’t seem to understand that the DN has much better things to do than attempt to bring down their shaky little society. The Daily Nebraskan recently ran a fantastic series on college drinking, sending reporters across the country to campuses in […]
HappyYoungPeople.com, a website that I contribute cartoons and occasional posts to, was mentioned in today’s issue of The Metro. Being in Nebraska, I don’t know anything about this newspaper, but according to Tony Bock, “That’s a free daily for NY, Boston, Philly, Jersey – it’s huge, man. They have people everywhere passing them out around […]
San Diego mayor Dick Murphy announced his resignation today. Although it is a bit of a shock, it’s not like it’s completely out of the blue. Just last week, he was named by Time magazine as one of the worst three mayors in the United States. Follow those links and you can get a taste […]
The first week of Night Knight is in the bag. Week 2 begins today. I had the series finished about a week before it started running, so it’s been a lot of fun just sitting back and watching the whole saga play out with no pressure hanging over everything. Last week was the big media […]
I wanted my birthday to be relaxing and fun, and that evolved into “Let’s see how many meals we can eat at In-N-Out.” We started out thinking we’d have lunch at In-N-Out and then have dinner at Gordon Biersch, my favorite microbrewery. I wasn’t really in the mood to battle a crowd and have to […]
Sea World Day began sadly, as we had to return the car. But here’s Sara with our dear Mazda 6. We avoided a $20 cab fare by continuing to master the art of public transportation and made our way to Sea World by mid-morning. Sea World had long been a part of the plans since […]
On Day 6, we rented a car and went up to Hollywood to visit my cousin Lindsay. We got a Mazda 6, and it was a ton of fun. I really missed driving in San Diego and driving in general, really. The first thing we did was head up Mount Soledad to the cross, which […]
We met up with Lindsay at her apartment and she took us around on a tourist’s tour of Hollywood. I’d been to LA and Hollywood a few times before, but never really managed to see anything cool without being pointed in the right direction by Lindsay, so I was excited to get her version of […]
Day 5 was Beach Day Two – the day we were actually going to hang out on the beach for the hot hours of the day. Weather.com told us it was going to be 80 degrees and sunny. We had our third In-N-Out lunch at the Sports Arena location. I ordered the 4×4, which was […]
