September 14, 2007 Bonus Bonus Blog
Our summer monsoon officially ended on Tuesday. We are all so relieved. It's only supposed to get up to 107 today. I went home for lunch and broke out the sweaters.

As of this post I have blogged 1,881 times. I take note of that number because it's an Old West milestone date (1881), in fact our phone number at True West is 575-1881 for that very reason. And, as of today I have sketched 4,736 images without missing a day. Looks like I'll soon be at the halfway mark to my goal of 10,000, which is kind of exciting. I guess you could call this Half-way to Suckless-ville.

Or, not.

Developing a nifty doubletruck ad for Mickey Free in the next issue. Here's a couple gouaches for that effort:



I Googled 3:10 To Yuma to see if we got any placement on hits (we didn't, at least in the first ten pages) and saw this lead, or headline:

"3:10 to Yuma: Not as Good as Brokeback Mountain, but Easily as Gay - The Huffington Post."

Evidently, some are seeing the Charlie Prince (Ben Foster) character as latenly gay, and a slam against upstanding homos everywhere. Frankly, I think he's the coolest guy in the whole flick.
