"Stand clear of the closing doors please"

Welcome to my new blog. mainly this blog will contain some random stories about my daily commutes and other stories that I think are somewhat entertaining and/or worth sharing. On those days when simply typing out a narrative won't do something justice, I'll probably put up a drawing. Enjoy and let me know what you think.

The Continuing Saga of Mr. Wompers: Chapter III


Neither Mr. Wompers nor his faithful companion Glenroy Killgrass had ever traveled by hot air balloon before, and they both intended on trying it just as soon as they reached their undisclosed destiniation. In the meantime their fate lay in the hands of a mammoth, sorcelled, apple 'neath which they found themselves precariously tethered.

The Continuing Saga of Mr. Wompers: Chapter II



Mr. Wompers knew it was a fool's errand to assume responsibility for the well-being of another, but, having been raised by possums, he found it exceedingly difficult to pass up a companion capable of carrying a great many apples.
Mr. Wompers eventually made the tough decision...
...and named him "Glenroy Killgrass"

"Despite his fondness for the fresh mountain air...


Mr. Wompers became increasingly more irritated by the loose earth which made for unreliable footholds"

Happy Tuesday, Pals!


the morning commutes have been relatively quiet lately, so until something interesting happens I guess I'll just continue posting pictures. It's actually really fun just posting random stuff.

Practice makes permanent


So... this is just a random face drawing. I'm inspired by friends who are truly gifted, and well-trained artists. I've been a doodler and drawer since a very young age and am constantly trying to improve. Recently thanks to blogs like this I've been studying more intently and hope to soak up as much knowledge as possible.

What does this all mean, Mark?

Well, it means, that occassionally I'll throw up (post, not vomit) pictures like this that I've done.

Happy Thursday, Pals

Happy Wednesday, Pals!

New Page Banner

Well I decided to upgrade the title banner for this page. Let me know what you think. I have better drawing software here at home, but i get most of my ideas during the day, so I'm limited to what i have available. It's all good though. Using different tools will keep things fresh.

Where the act went wrong...

Happy Tuesday,
Had a couple buddies in town and we caught a stand up comedy show in the city. This was my first Stand-up comedy experience and it was really fun. There were a couple of comics that were having bad nights but I gotta respect anyone that gets up there. Even if they create one of the most uncomfortable situations I've ever been in. The crickets were even sitting in silence...

That's all for today, Pals!

Getting started or Mmmmmm Blizzard...

Well the Blizzard of '10 is officially under way and the commute into work was not the chaotic mess we anticipated. A few minutes behind schedule, a little bit of wind in the face, but overall it was no different then any other winter commute I've exprerienced. The trek home, however, guarantees to be frought with peril.
So, hear I sit in my flourescent, cubicled, caffeinated, daze and complete my daily tasks. This is my job. I could go into detail about the ins and outs of my daily assignments, and routine. I could bore you with these details, but really what's the point. This blog isn't about the work. the work isn't incredibly entertaining. What makes my day different than the hundreds of thousands of other Marvin K. Mooney's, and Mary B. Gladley's is perspective and personal observations. Right? man, I hope so...
