A weekly (or so) comic mingling on/off track news, pop culture, and the occasional theological reference.

Me, Whining

Working on my next comic. But I needed to vent. <cue: OK, let's vent.>

Thinking up comics is harder than before because: this year NASCAR is friggin' boring!

When I did my string of comics during the chase in 2006, they practically wrote themselves!

Topics in the news included:
  • The Erin Crocker-Ray Evernham saga.
  • The Ray Evernham-Jermy Mayfield fallout from the Erin Crocker-Ray Evernham saga.
  • One of the most newsworthy crashes in history: Vickers winning his first race by taking out Johnson and Jr. at Talladega.
  • RCR being accused of cheating following Harvick's win at New Hampshire.
  • Robby Gordon losing tires again.
  • Robby Gordon throwing stuff out of the window to get a debris caution.
  • The pending COT.
  • A service truck still on the track when the green flag was waved.
  • Tony not making the chase.
  • Edwards going after Jr. following a Busch race.
And more. Not to mention the commercials were better--with the All State girls. And "I'm so glad we brought Kevin Harvick on our vacation."

This year--nothing. Not good commercials. No controversy. No fights. No cheating. Bleh.

OK, I'll stop whining.

My Son's Blog

Many readers of my other blog know I have an autistic son, Luke. He likes to ride around on his bike and take pictures, mostly of highway signs. We setup a blog for him to post some of the pictures. He uploads and posts without help, and the accompanying text is all his.

Do I sound like a proud dad?

His blog is named Luke's Signs.
