So here’s my rendition (thanks to a Google reference) of Martin Luther nailing the 95 theses to the door. I’m not sure how much of a risk Luther thought this really was. I think he just wanted a debate around certain issues. Nonetheless it became riskier and riskier after this. With this also being Halloween, […]

Old School Arcade
When I was a kid, snake type games competed with asteroids and pac man. We couldn’t play these at home and my parents only handed out the quarters sparingly. This was probably wise. 😆 I remember the big deal it was when my friend got Donkey Kong on a home game system. That was a […]

Plank Repair
(From a Google photo – not our boat – I didn’t want to worry you.) I meant to draw this yesterday. I had it all planned out as the perfect drawing for the Inktober prompt of “Patch,” but then I got to reading a novel and … well … went to bed. So here’s my […]

BLT
Now here is something that’s crispy. Toast is crispy. Bacon is crispy. Lettuce is crispy. Tomatoes and mayo not so crispy, but, hey, they make it taste great. This makes up for yesterday’s Inktober fail. 😆 Now why do I suddenly have a craving for a sandwich? Inktober prompt: Crispy (not crusty) 🙄. . BTW […]

Leftovers
What is left over after the processed PBnJ “sandwiches” are stuck in their plastic bags? This is also what happens when you glance at the Inktober prompt and read “crusty” rather than “crispy.” 🤣 I’ll have to catch-up tomorrow. . . . #InktoberWrongPrompt #Inktober #Inktober2021 #SketchForToday #Sketching #Sketch #PenAndInk #CrossHatching #CrossHatch #FountainPen #Duke209fude #NoodlersInk #NoodlersBulletProofBlack […]

When No One Carries Matches
How do we light the prayer candles? We revert to lighters. One of these gives a spark, which could light a fire. And then all those around … Inktober prompt: Spark. . . . #Spark #Lighter #BicLighter #Inktober #Inktober2021 #SketchForToday #Sketching #Sketch #PenAndInk #CrossHatching #CrossHatch #FountainPen #Duke209fude #NoodlersInk #NoodlersBulletProofBlack #MoleskineArtSketchbook #theoboatology ______(\____________/)______ This is from […]

Old School Analog Connection
Did you ever make these as a kid? Two cans and some string was all you needed. We’d make these from time to time. I always considered it a miracle that they worked (as long as we kept the strong tight and remembered we couldn’t both talk at once). Inktober prompt: Connection. . . . […]

Prepare the Formation
Seagulls are a common sight around here. When I see the “after math” I sometimes wonder if it is practice. Do they fly in formations on bombing runs?

Seine Net: A Reflection On the 22nd Sunday After Pentecost
Seine Net is the same reflection series I have been doing on Sundays, just a new name. I wanted something a little more nautical oriented that also captured (get the pun?) the sense of my grabbing random bits of information to think about. Just as a seine net pulls up all sorts of things, some […]
