*EXTRA!! EXTRA!! THE K CHRONICLES WON THE 2007 HARVEY AWARD FOR BEST COMIC STRIP!!
Yee-owww!! Pop that bottle o' champagne!! My ship has come in!! My little ol' self-syndicated comic strip pulled off a surprise upset, winning one of the most respected awards in the industry!! I was up against some of the best in the business, with folks like Garry Trudeau and Patrick McDonnell nominated in my category. I want to thank everybody in the industry who voted for me. And all the readers who have supported the strip for so long.

(I know this sounds like an acceptance speech..but heck, I wasn't there at the ceremony, so I didn't get a chance to be all-a-flustered!!)

To read more details, google "2007 Harvey Award Winners". They haven't posted the results on the Harvey Awards website yet.

*WHAT WAS I DOING IF I WASN'T AT THE CEREMONIES?
I was with my German in-laws of course. On the road, hitting every single beach in Southern California. And the San Diego Zoo. Where I watched a chimpanzee pull feces from its own ass and eat it. I also had some most righteous tapas at a spot called Cafe Sevilla in San Diego's Gaslamp Quarter. Git yer ass in there before 6:30pm during the week for half price paella and more!!

Don't believe me about the chimp? I will post a picture soon.

*OH YEAH, I FORGOT..I HAVE A BLOG..
Sorry folks...I've been on the road and bad with the blog upkeep.

*LAS VEGAS...
The wifey and I made a little jaunt to Las Vegas to visit ye father and to consume too much casino buffet food.

What brought us out there was an Arts conference that scheduled a workshop for myself and co-author Mat Schwarzman of the Beginner's Guide to Community-Based Arts. He brought some supr-talented youth from New Orleans with him, whilst I hawked the book guerilla-style with my "Ask me about my Comix" sign.

*THE K CHRONICLES NOMINATED FOR A HARVEY AGAIN!!
Yeehaa! High off of my win of a second Glyph award, I got word that the K Chronicles has been nominated for a Harvey for best comic strip or panel for a second year in a row!! I'm up against some serious heavy-hitters including Garry Trudeau's Doonesbury and Patrick McDonnell's Mutts. Yikes!! I need anybody who is remotely involved in the industry to vote for my ass here.

*I'M CURRENTLY UP IN SAN FRANCISCO..
..recording the last two shows of SPARK, the Bay Area Artist documentary program I narrate. I'm getting all teary-eyed knowing that this may be the end, but I'm hittin' the Red Sox/Oakland A's game this afternoon with ye homies to keep my spirits up. Them slumpin' Sox better turn it around!!

*ALSO IN SAN FRANCISCO THIS FRIDAY..
A K Chronicles original art will be auctioned off this Friday along with a bunch of other good stuff at the League of Young Voters annual art auction Picture Progress. The event will have food, drink, music, art and will just be overall groovy. Get all the details right here.
