Sometimes this is what pops in my head whenever I hear Tigershark. I have no idea where this visual came from, I just know that it gets in my head and will make me giggle to myself like a mental patient watching Family Guy.

It is the weekend before Christmas, and I am hoping that I can sit on my butt and enjoy it the way it should be enjoyed, watching TV and eating junk food. I hope that everyone out there is enjoying this weekend before the holiday's as well. But before all of that is going to happen, lets take a look at the final Not @ All Christmas themed comic.

And here is another letter to Santa Claus.

Dear Santa,

All I want for Christmas this year, is a free pass for one day to be as bad as I want to be. I have been good for every day since I was born. Dammit, I am tired of being good, but I want presents, so you see the dilemma I am in here. So that is why I want a free pass on one day. A day to get drunk, get high, punch an old man in the face, and sleep with a hooker with out paying for it. I don't think that is too much to ask for. Please think this over, and please give me this little gift.

Well that seems like a nice young man, at least most of the time. Well that is going to do it for today. Check back tomorrow for more goodies, and the very last letter to Santa.

As much fun as Sunday is, it is also a bit of a sad day, as it means the end of the weekend. So I will keep this brief today so as not to cut into you weekend too much. I got a new Christmas themed pinup for you guys.

This one kind of reminds me of my cat, it is something he would have done back in the day. I even thought about designing the cat to look my old cat, but instead thought it better to just go classic gray, and save my cat for something else I have in mind in the future.

Ok gang, I'll let you get back to your Sunday, watch some football, meet some friends for lunch, or just go and and play. Either way have fun and remember to come back again tomorrow for some new Shoofly.

Happy Friday all! It should be a great weekend coming up as it will be the first weekend of November. The leaves outside are all kinds of different colors to show that fall is here. But as I stare outside my window I still see alot of green as the desert plants tend to stay green all winter. I got a brand new Not @ All cartoon for you, as well as some news as to the future of this fun little blog I have been working on here.

So I hope you all enjoyed that cartoon, as the sad news I am about to deliver to you will be easier to take if you are fan of Not @ All. I have had alot of fun doing this cartoon, and hope I can return to it again as soon as possible. But I am still very new at doing comic strips, and have had alot of trouble coming up with material for this strip. So for the time being, Not @ All will be going on hiatus. But like I said, if I can come up with more stuff I will bring it back.

So with Not @ All ending you may now wonder what does that mean for the future of this blog. That is a very good question, and I hope you will all be satisfied with the answer. I will be doing a brand new strip called Shoofly. This strip will be done in black and white, as color will be more difficult to do with this one, and will be Monday through Friday. So for loosing one strip, you will be gaining a new five days a week strip. Boy I hope you guys like that idea as much I do. Shoofly will be a major challenge for me, keeping a tight deadline and all, but I know it will be alot of fun. So here is a sneak peak at the strip, a quick sketch I did of the main character of Shoofly.

Well that's all folks. I hope you all enjoyed Not @ All as much as I did. I hope to bring it back again in the near future. Remember to check back in on Monday for the start of Shoofly. Until then, have a great weekend, take care, and keep spreading the good word of the cartoons.

Well once again Monday has fallen upon us, and that could mean many things, but none more important then the coming of a new Not @ All cartoon. I know you guys are as excited, heck I bet even more so, then I am by this fact. Well, at least I hope so. So a little insight on today's cartoon. I just finished putting it together a few minutes ago, cutting it a little close this time around. The cat kind of looks funny to me, no matter how many times I tried, he always seemed to come out like this. At first I didn't like the way he looked, but the more I stared at it, the more the look grew on me. Now I can not think of a better way for this toon to have come out.

Now for today's dedication, which goes out to a band. Right now as I write this, and as I was working on this cartoon, I had my ipod playing The Raveonettes. For those of you unfamiliar with this band, they are a Danish rock duo. They have a style that sounds alot like the music of the 50's and 60's, but with a much darker edge. I discovered them by accident, well that is my brother did, as he downloaded a free sample of their music from Amazon one day. When I heard them, the song being Dead Sound, I fell in love with them, and went on a hunt for anything I could find. More often then not, I have them playing in the background as I work on my many projects. So I have to say thanks for providing the soundtrack to my art, other various projects, and pretty much my life.

Well fans, that will do it for today. Hope you all had fun, and I hope you all will be back again on Wednesday for the middle of the week cartoon. If you are interested in checking out The Raveonettes, you can find their music at pretty much all the major music suppliers, Amazon, iTunes, etc. Both Youtube and Dailymotion have music videos you can watch as well to get a taste of them. Tell them DVid sent you and you will get.... well probably nothing, but maybe they will hear I am a fan and send me an autograph or something. So as always folks, take care, be fair, and remember to share.

Good Monday to you all. It is time for, what I like to hope is your favorite new comic strip, Not @ All. Now when I first start this, I wanted to make sure I was ahead of schedule, so I built up a stock pile of toons. Well I just realized that I have been burning through them faster then I have been making new ones. What does this mean? Well to you guys nothing, because I am determined to keep a schedule here, so when I say updates are three times a week, I mean it. To me, this means I have been either distracted as of late, or just plain lazy, and either way need to get back to work. So today's comic is just something that popped in my head one day. I really liked the way it turned out.

Now today's dedication goes out to those brave men and women who serve their country America's many military factions. Without those brave people to fight for the freedoms that make this country great, I would not be here doing this. So thanks guys and gals, we all really appreciate what you do.

So folks, that's going to do it for today. You all have my thanks and gratitude for stopping by and reading my cartoons. I hope you all enjoyed it as much as I enjoyed making them. So I will see you all back here on Wednesday for another brand new cartoon. Until then, you know the drill, be fair, take care, and remember to share.

Holy moly fans and fannettes! You all know what day it is? Uh... no it's Wednesday, but a good guess anyways. That is what happens when your main fan base is stoners and mental patients. Now I don't know about you, but today feels like a wonderful day for a cartoon. I know I am ready to toss one up here on this blog, but the question is are you ready to see one? Well I am going to hope you all said yes, because if not I am going to feel mighty silly putting one up then. Today's toon is not so much a joke as it is just a funny looking drawing with a kid and a his pet cat. I will explain in more detail why I chose this particular toon in my dedication. But first some news and thoughts for you. So I have been messing around with a story in which one such as yourself could by nifty DVid merchandise of some kind. When I have all the bugs worked out I will put it up and then you can see what you think of it. Also there will be some more new experimental things coming your way in the near future, some of them may be in art form and some may not. I will keep you all posted when the time gets closer to both of these wonderful things, well maybe not you two in the back who have been making fart noises and snickering during this whole thing.

And now for the dedication of the day. Today's toon is dedicated to the memory of the man who helped inspire me to want to do cartoons... Chuck Jones! This whole toon was the result of me reading and admiring one of the man's wonderful books about his life in animation. You may notice the cat there, yes that one, bares a striking resemblance to the one and only Sylvester (the cat not the actor). On a side note, the cat also bares a some what resemblance to my once best and only pet Tabby, yes I know it is a lazy name but I loved it anyways. So I guess you could say this might be a double dedication, to Mr. Jones, and Mr. Tabby. Both are no longer with us, both had great impacts on my simple life, and both are sadly missed to this day.

And on that note, I will leave you to wonder why you are compelled to comeback and enjoy my odd sense of humor and even odder sense of art. See you all bright and early on Friday for the end of the week toon. Take care, be fair, and remember to share.
