On The Hunt for El Pendejo

   Stepping up my game, what there is left of it. Ha.

Daily Whip Out:

"On The Hunt for El Pendejo"

   Meanwhile, Grandma Goose has been busy.

   Back to my sketchbook. Lots of ideas and notes.

Daily Whip Out: "Head Down"

   And, always a little bit of dust to share.

Daily Whip Out: "Dust Up"

   And, here's a concept I am hot on the trail of.

Daily Whip Out: "Rifle at The Ready"

   This is a sketch for a much more ambitious piece I'm doing for the Battle of Agua Prieta.

   Speaking of ridiculous, one-sided battles, I cannot believe the dust up over wearing a face mask. In a Target store in Van Nuys, California, an employee ended up with a broken arm while helping to remove two customers who refused to wear masks, or leave the premises.

    In Perkasie, Pennsylvania, a cashier was punched in the face three times for refusing to sell a pack of cigars in a convenience store to a guy refusing to put on a mask.

   On a public bus in San Antonio, a man who was told he could not board,  shot and wounded a passenger on the bus who was wearing a face mask.

   A security guard at a Family Dollar store in Flint, Michigan was shot and killed by a customer for simply asking that he put on a face mask.

   Here's the deal: the masks are to protect others, not yourself. You don't have a right to infect other people, people. And, more importantly, you don't have the right to kill someone who wants you to protect others.

   Crazy times.
