Who knew the little wizard lived in Tampa? I did. I knew he lived in Tampa.
On an unrelated note, I’ve begun eating tuna, thanks to the help of Cristy’s trusty can-opener.

Who knew the little wizard lived in Tampa? I did. I knew he lived in Tampa.
This is Paul, the smooth Italian salesman. As of about 3 weeks ago, Paul became a local celebrity of sorts when he was interviewed by local tv stations. Apparently, the plane Paul was flying on survived the closest call in airline history. The TV station kept showing Paul lighting up a cigar and laughing with friends. We teased him about it for a few days but we were extra happy that his life was spared. This sketch is in honor of that. I’m glad you’re safe, Paul. Welcome home.
I was just on the radio! The kind folks at Radio Revolution 88.3FM here in Miami interviewed me about the Blogathon and about my role. I told them about ECHO and about the hours I’ve been awake. It was a cool little plug for Sketchism. If that doesn’t keep me awake for another 30 minutes, nothing will.
Except maybe some hardcore caffeine and a punch to the face. But I keep turning those offers down.
This here is the firefighter David Romy. He’s quite a stand-up guy. Aside from being a kind individual, he’s also a snowboarder. This past December, Romy let me borrow his board on a ski trip I went with some college students to North Carolina. He prepped me and gave me a bunch of pointers before I left. I was so thankful. Thanks again, Dave! You’re the man.
I’m scared to approach the pizza boxes. They’re sitting on the conference table in the middle of the office as they have all day. I keep looking back there expecting a rat to pull a slice out. And then all of a sudden the rat eats it and chokes on its staleness. Then, like, another rat comes behind him yelling “Medic!” and a little white mouse with tiny pink eyes and a red cross on his helmet comes over to him to assess the damage. They whisper a few things in his little rat ears and take him out on a stretcher. Poor little rat never saw it coming. Death by the slice.
It’s getting late.
Any questions?
Things are going well still. I’m on iChat whenever I’m not really drawing. I have some awesome friends supporting me. Thanks for the comments and even some of the critiques have been fun. I completely disagree with them, but it’s the thought that counts.
I keed, I keed.
Let me take a moment now to send a shout out to the Ribeiros in Brazil. I have no idea if Higor or Sarah are reading this right now, but I thought they should know I miss them. I hope you guys manage to visit real soon. If not, there’s a high chance you’ll see me in your country again.
Alright, time to start sketching some more. Stay tuned, all you faithful readers!
