Let's get past the bickering, it's not very productive. Let's move forward and continuing to make our nation great. United we stand, divided we fall.

Print color.

I just saw the printing of this ad. The color is waaaaaaay off! Not sure why the color is so bad, please enjoy the digital version.

Sleding is fun!

Not really political, just kind of for fun. What's fun for you may not be fun for others.

It makes me a little sad that the founder of this great event had to pass sponsoring it own event. Thankfully it will continue, thanks to Vitamin Cottage. Published in the October 28, 2008 Times-Call Thanks for reading!

The idea for this cartoon came from a article in the October 22, 2008 Times-Call by John Fryar.
2034 is a long ways away! The rest of Colorado will have passed Longmont by. Even 18 years is too long of a wait. If we are on the way to be fuel efficient, we need more public alternative transportation now, not in 18 years, let alone in 26 years. The FasTracks project sure seems to be moving at the speed of snail.

Do roadside memorials hurt anyone? No. We should just let them be.

Who steals a 150 pound pumpkin? The idea for this story came from a story by Scott Rochat in the Friday, October 03, 2008 Times-Call It would take a bit of planning and some man power to take a pumpkin of that size. A pumpkin so big could be called great. That's how the joke came to me. (Sorry Charles, I just had to do it) It wouldn't be funny if it weren't for you.

Come on people! Stealing candidate signs is just low. Let's not have it come to this. If you can justify sign stealing, let me know your mind set. Published in the October 6, 2008 Times-Call Thanks for reading!
