I haff nebber done this afore, but since sumbody asked me fer it,
I reckon it won't hurt.
Anyways, here is one of my "workfiles" that I use to make cartoons
with. I haven't used these equestrian-type sketches yet in a cartoon,
but when I do, these are probably some of them that you may see...

That's the kind of idiotic stuff I type, when I start to get a good (or bad)
cartoon in mind. These date back to my first Rowdy cartoon, whever that was.
I will probably get around to using them, as I already know one or two I will
need them with, when I am not too lazy to put them together.
Please doan rite me and tell me I are sum kinder are-teest. This junk are jus'
fer kartoons.
Be good,

I couldn't call myself an artist, if I wanted to - for one thing, I was raised around some terrific artists. I humbly thankyou anyway, even though the joke's on me. I like doing this stuff in ascee, because I don't have to worry about whether it gets printed or not, and hell - I get more response from you nice folks in e-type mail and resposts, than most real cartoonists ever get from the readers of a magazine or newspaper. Besides, I can do what I want here, and you can't do that with an editor screwing up your stuff. If it's a failure, so what? I can do it over, and maybe it will fly the next time. If it doesn't, well... big deal. Maybe the next one will be better. Hmmm... maybe I will make just some ascey art sometime. I have made a couple of just plain pix, in the past... Cartoons is jus' more fun, for me. Art is only in the eye of the beholder, but a cartoon is allus good, no matter what it looks like, if somebody thinks the gag is funny. Veronica, thanks for posting my URL, as you know full-well I cain't do that, thanks to the disease of OE5, which I recommend NOBODY installs if they plan on posting to AAA. As for your sweet approbation, I will discount it, on account of you made them pages for me, in the first place, which were fine of you. If y'all is interested, I have posted these here .jpg-type scans of some real art, albeit only modest examples of Chester Scott's work. They are a couple of illustrations he did for one of my old Pop's poetry books. You will please forgive my "spacing" method of giving a URL, but it is the only way it will work and post. w w w . a n g e l f i r e . c o m / m e 2 / j r o / i m a g e s / s t . j p g w w w . a n g e l f i r e . c o m / m e 2 / j r o / i m a g e s / W a r r i o r . j p g Anyway, those are simplified examples of some "real" art, by the finest Indian artist still alive. I could hardly call my scribbles art, when I grew up chasing the old guy around. I'd put up some serious examples, but my scanner isn't big enough, so these quickies will have to do. Gosh.... I have typed a whole post, and none of it's funny..... Pitiful. I reckon I are gittin' too old. JRO

Your ascii is excellent too :) -- A Sunday School teacher, hard up for subjects to talk about, was discussing with her class how Noah might have spent his time on the ark. A girl volunteered, "Maybe he went fishing." A boy countered: "With only two worms?"
