...cellar dwellers.

Eh !
Whats that you say?
Tigers.. endangered !,
....and are lone, solitary animals, highly unlikely to even meet for coffee let alone infest your basement en mass.
Pish !
Next thing you'll be telling me is that the British, American & Chinese environmental policies are inherently unsound.

...socially acceptable bad behaviour.

The odd thing is this. My scribbles always seem to have a dark , slightly violent streak behind them.
Things always being chase, eaten, threatened or otherwise buggered in some way or another.
Strange, because I am the archetypal pacifist. The one who , apart from the odd outing on a rugby park, would not say "boo" to a goose or even take on Elton John in a bare knuckle fight.

Maybe it's my way of letting my frustrations bubble to the surface. If so I'm not too worried about it.
Im more concerned that I do not get more complaints about some of the things I scribble down.
It's obvious that violence is more acceptable in current society, (western anyway), but why should it be.
And now I'm here makeing my own contribution to further the slide downward.

As for the cartoons. Well, my scapegoat lays with Tom & jerry. Subject to the onslaught as a child along with millions of others , over a sustained and prolonged period.
They are to blame for the downfall of western civilisation as we know it.

....& Bugs buny had a hand in it too.

...old blues.

Im finding 36 a strange age.
Socially too old to socially do the things I want to do.
In my mind too young to want to give them up.

So what do you do when you have nothing meaningful or relevent to say for yourself. ?

Draw cartoons I guess.
The slackers option.


OK , not a total empty void , but not exactly a full plenum at present either.
Im having great difficulty forming opinions or caring about a number of things at the moment.

Big brother (reality TV show) being the top of the list.
Constant nagging for me to get my hair cut is number two.
My total lack of drive & direction should be at the top , but that means re typing it & , well.... whatever.

Put it down to a seasonal disorder & hope I come out of it in a month or two.

...pink cutlery blues.

Baza was a member of the fast food generation finding it difficult coming to terms with cutlery.


I don't know if I'm the only one that finds fast food chains a little uncivil.
Eat with your fingers ,sorry no other option given.
Do you ever see anyone in McDonnalds actually wash thier hands ?

At least chip shops give you a little wooden fork, so I suppose this is the healthy & civil option.

...forgotten scribbles.

Due to an extreme case of bone idleness I don't seem to get around to updating as I should.
So in a fit of laziness I've dumped a number of my scribbles that didn't get published in a vain attempt to make a mends.

I can procrastinate again with a warm inner glow, happy in the knowledge I've made no difference and poised get back to some serious slacking.

...fast food.

Is it possible to make a cynical cartoon too subtle to the point that the objective is lost.?

...movies abridged

Its another round of guess the movie...

Number 1


Number 2

Number 3

If these aren't easy then I should give up cartoons right now.


(oh , I added a third one.)

...test monkeys.

Giles , Roger and Andrew came the the conclusion there were no wise monkeys.....but then again they were the ones locked in a cage.


Animal Tests

My simple Animal test :

a) Is it not made of rock ?
b) Does it lack foliage or flowers ?
c) Does it require nuitriment derived from organic matter to sustain and prolong its own integrity ?

If the answer to these three questions is "YES" , then it's probably an animal.

So why we need to breed little critters & hide them away in fortified Cambridge labs, lacing them with drugs , cigarettes, make up & booze is beyond me.

...morning after the year before,

This should have said; "When Jeff awoke, he remembered he had also blown a number of his new years resolutions" , but I've resolved to clean up my act.

...giving the game away.

Mobile phone users attitudes probably fall into three distict catagories.

A) "What no mobile?, well what do you ..., how do you?. Eh! Thats just stupid talk." .

B) "Meh,.... whatever".

&

C) "Stupid , dumb ass peice of crap , just cause I dont use it for four years b*****ds take my £5 credit, Sh** , Grrr" , mumble, grumble etc.


I fall nicely into catagory C.
