Pumpkin Carved With Lots of Teeth

 I like to sometimes carve open mouths and plenty of teeth in my carvings. I tried it out on this pumpkin.

Actually started out with a different teeth pattern but quickly changed it. I didn't like the way they were turning out so cut in a little deeper and made the change.

On this pumpkin I added some color as a test. The picture doesn't show that color as well as it actually came out, but you get the idea.

Witch Pumpkin Carving

 This took a lot of coffee breaks. I thought since I carve wood characters, I'd try my hand at a few pumpkin carvings.

Tedious but fun and satisfying.

Fake History of Coffee

  I just know as this blog grows; someone is going to complain that what I am saying is not true.

That's what FAKE means. 😅

So, coffee is said to be traced to Ethiopia, where a goat herder noticed his goats becoming jumpy and full of energy after eating some ot the berries from an arabica plant.

Wrong. 

A caveman actually noticed a dinosaur acting loopy after eating berries from a plant.

I'm not swearing to this, but many historians believe this to be a fact. It tosses history for a loop because most scientists say dinosaurs and cavemen did not coexist, but they may have never watched The Flintstones.

Dinosaurs and a Calvin & Hobbes Lookalike?

 

Is it just me or does this tiger kind of resemble a popular and well-known cartoon character?

Yep. Messing around with AI again. I'm a fan of Calvin & Hobbes and was trying to generate some pictures of dinosaurs in that style. This little guy showed up and there was no way I couldn't share it.

I kind of like the looks of this little guy but I'm not sure of the legalities of turning him into my own cartoon. So I'll just show it to you here for your enjoyment.

Stickman Funnies - Arthritis

 I got into drawing stickmen comics many years ago. It was fun and I had a blast coming up with the drawings and the captions.

I'll add a few from time to time and hopefully you get a kick out of them.

Lucky Little Red Riding Hood

 Things could have gone very badly for Little Red Riding Hood. She was in a particularly nasty mood when she stumbled upon the big bad wolf. 

She said some things to the wolf no one should ever say to a wild animal.

It turned out to be her lucky day.
