I have no other reason to promote this business other than they do incredible work. I just received my new business cards, and they look incredible. Great price, extremely fast turnaround and shipping, and excellent customer service. Great work deserves great praise. Thank you for my new cards, flyerstudios.com!

Gettin' some new business cards (andy slocum)

Got off my ass this week to draw a little. It isn't exactly like the sketchbook is bursting at the seams. Life's been keeping me preoccupied. Not busy, just...preoccupied.

Sick...not sick, tired...not tired, busy...not busy, bored...bored.

What's new? All my jokes are sick. I've been listening to a lot of audio books in the car on long drives to and from work ever since I joined audible.com. I thought it was lame, but it's actually a pretty good deal, although the audio quality is less than perfect. Got what I paid for, I guess.

I log in to Facebook every time I need to feel better about my life. I think it's working.

I have a really, really great job. I hope Governor Jim doesn't screw it up for me. He's not really a dickhead. He's just some below average guy trying to save his ass the same as anyone else. But I'd still only give him three weeks on Survivor.

KNPR Interview

Dave Berns graciously invited me to the KNPR studio to talk to me about my artwork. It was a lot of fun, and I really appreciated the opportunity to share my ideas about cartooning!

Take a listen to the interview:

I love this store!

I don't normally like to promote retail stores, but when someone does a good business, provides decent prices, and treats me like they want my business no matter how small my order, well... I think they deserve a plug. I highly recommend Papermart.com for just about anything related to paper. I purchase all of my plastic bags from them, and for the standard price of shipping I always receive my order in two days--for you west coast folks out there, anyway. Anywho, I've consistently been impressed with the quality, service, ahttp://www.blogger.com/img/gl.link.gifnd speed of this company, and I hope you have the same experience as I did...

Humor Grafico

I'm not lying when I say that some of my comics are being published in a Spanish language newspaper in Green Bay, Wisconsin. It sounds like I'm lying, but I'm not. It's a long story, but here's a picture to prove it.

Originally, only my comics without dialogue were going to be published, but then I was asked to do a Superbowl specific comic featuring Brett Favre pulling his tricks out of his helmet. For all you readers of El Hispano out in Green Bay who also happen to be reading my blog regularly, sorry to spoil the surprise, but here's a sneak peek at January's comic. For you NON Spanish speakers out there, it reads, "I know there's a Superbowl in here somewhere."

Greg Thilmont is this really cool guy and Las Vegas Weekly reporter who supports First Friday Las Vegas, and he gets my jokes! He always has words of encouragement every time he visits First Friday, and he is one of Las Vegas' few genuine people. Check out his blog (especially the one that mentions Andy Slocum!).

Thank you, Greg, for your kindness and support of my artwork!
