See Ya In The Funny Papers

Just to give some of you more fuel for the fire that I am crazy, here is an idea that I am about to begin work on. As a kid, I loved comic books. My fave as a kid was " Sugar and Spike " but I went on to be a huge MAD Magazine fan. My son is an artist with remarkable talent, but he has a bad case of... Sign in to see full entry.

It's a bit warmer than it was yesterday, but we have had on and off snow flurries all morning. It's currently 39, which is about three degrees warmer than it ever got on Monday. I've been wanting to take a trip over to Munising to see several of the falls there plus walk along the Munising Bay... Sign in to see full entry.

Writing is easy. All we do is tear out our souls and turn them inside out for the rest of the world to see. Nothing to it. Sign in to see full entry.

It's getting closer. It's only fifteen days (and a few hours) before NaNoWriMo gets started. I've done the NaNo since 2002, which also by the way lead me to Blog-It. I didn't 'win' my first two NaNo's, but I've won every one since then. I learned something about writing consistently by doing the... Sign in to see full entry.

'It was a dark and stormy night,' the immortal lines of Snoopy, my favorite canine writer. Actually it wasn't all that bad last night as I walked the shores of 'Gitchee Gummee,' the Ojibwa name for Lake Superior. It was in the upper 30's along the lake, but the winds weren't that bad.

It's bright and sunny out today, although it is a mere 41 degrees. I may sneak up to the Tahquamenon Falls and Whitefish Point if the traffic isn't a big issue. I think I need to 'get away' for a bit. It's only about 35 miles, and the ride will do me good. A short entry in "The Brick" today as I put... Sign in to see full entry.

Back

I'm back. It seems that they want to be sure that I won't need a surgery to remove part of my pancreas. They started an INV And then injected stuff with the idea that it would illuminate 'problems' when they did the PET scan. Follow up appointment set for next week. More when I know it. It is COLD...
