Five Things People Don’t Know About Me

In the comments for “IF: Help,” Katie tagged me and asked me for five things people don’t know about me. So here it goes…

  1. The April before I was born, my mother and father narrowly escaped the 1965 Palm Sunday Tornado Outbreak. They were at home when it occurred. Neighbors on each side of them were killed.
  2. My great-great-great grandmother was an Iroquois Native American-Mohawk tribe.
  3. I have yet to meet a food I don’t like. Even though I’m from Indiana, I’m not a meat and potatoes kind of guy. I’ll try anything once.
  4. As a teen, I wrote a letter to Charles Schulz. I secretly hoped he would need an assistant and would see through my feeble attempt at hero worship and hire me. Alas, twasn’t meant to be!
  5. Last year, I ran the Indianapolis Mini-Marathon. I plan to run it again this year and train for a full marathon this autumn.

That’s all the news that isn’t about me.

Stinky, Lowly Shepherds

God works in mysterious ways. I have found it funny He would use shepherds to begin the birth announcements. But He always has a way of making things interesting. Merry Christmas.

Illustration Friday: Help


This time of year has been a little crazy. Surely you can understand, right? I’ve been wanting to do an illustration for this week’s Illustration Friday theme. I’ve settled for something right out of my sketchbook. Here it is in its unedited form. Well, okay, I did erase the acne from Santa’s forehead. Other than that, this is right out of the sketchbook.

I was thinking what poor Santa would do if he had mechanical trouble on Christmas Eve. What if that old sleigh has seen one Christmas Eve too many?

Everybody’s gettin’ nuttin’ for Christmas?

I was at a work luncheon and Santa Claus showed up. He was roasting some key employees because they’ve been naughty this year.

I started thinking, “Wow! nobody has been nice this year.” So Santa gave me gift in the form of this cartoon. Thanks, Santa!

Never as easy as it sounds

Why is the “love your neighbor” thing so hard to do? Why is it whenever I try to love my neighbor, everyone else is on their worst behavior? I can’t do it without help, that’s for sure!
