Conan O’Brien… friend to artists, cartoonists and performing persons!
Conan at Comic Con in San Diego
I am so glad that Conan is thriving… especially since he took the high road after Leno kicked him off the side of a building.

It’s that time of the week… time for fun!
Thanks to all those who came out for last week’s book signing at Rollick’s Coffee. Here’s a few photos… (More live over at Squid Row Mama’s Flickr page... and The Squid Row Facebook Page)
I met Chris Dreyer… a fellow tooner and punster. He was kind enough to give me this toon (which ties into Randie’s little obsession with The artist Modigliani.

Dream Machine (J Boogie Mix) – Mark Farina
Bookin’ it…
Flight #8- Various Artists
Emitown– Emi Lenox (still… it’s sooo good!)
Food I wish I was eating…
Black beans with cheese… and tortilla chips with guac… I’m really craving some serious Mexican food! Oh, how I wish there was a La Salsa around here. Sigh.
My tickets are at the ready… I’ve got my wand (my chopstick wand ala Randie) and I’m ready to see the last installment of Larry… I mean Harry Potter tonight! For dinner starters, John & Susie is bringing the Butter Beer… and an Herbology experiment. Judy is whipping up some Dragon stew… and I can’t wait!
Hey! Look what came in the mail!!!
I got me some jam! Not just any jam, kids… this stuff is loaded! Merlot, Zin, Cabernet, Chardannay & Sangria! My morning toasties are sure to get me toasted!
Randie, Ryan and I extend our warmest thank yous to Joe Minotaur for sending us these Blue Ridge Jams… I’ve got my spoon! I’m ready! Joe… yer a gem!
Music for my ears….
I’m spinning the Harry P.
The ipod has the Harry Potter Soundtracks 1 & 5 and that’s what I am drawing to. I love the piece “Fireworks” on The Order of the Phoenix Soundtrack…
Subtle Reminder:
Tomorrow is the Book Signing at Rollick’s (210 Main Street, Salinas) from 1-4pm …. Don’t miss a chance to get your Squid Row: Welcome to the Neighborhood book signed and toonered. Buy a coffee and get a buck off the book. Harold is givin’ out free hugs, too!
This Saturday at Rollick’s Coffee is that Squid Row Book Signing! If you live around the Monterey Bay, be sure to drop in at 210 Main Street in Oldtown Salinas. From 1pm to 4pm, I will be signing and hobnobbing, doodling and sipping some joe. Harold says he’s available for hugs and photographs. (DO NOT miss hugs with Harold! He’s so squishy!)

I can’t believe it’s Friday again… this week has just flown by… probably because I’ve been behind all week… that’s what happens when you throw in a big ol’ holiday at the outset of the work week. Gah…
Fan Art:
Aidan Casserly's Squid WallpaperFan Art:
Friend of Squid, Mr. Aidan Casserly of Scapula has sent me this little gem! Awesome shading and coloring, Dada! I’ve put it in with the Wallpapers if ya’ll want to put it on yer ‘puter. (And just so you knows, that’s NOT the Lone Cypress behind Randie… because if it were, those knuckleheads at the Pebble Beach Company would sue… no kid!)
Snaps, JC and Flickr
Harold's British Sweets Tooth
This past First Friday was not only a blast, but it was well documented. JC Dill came up to The Cartoonery and brought her big ol’ spiffy camera. You can see the results here. Be sure to look around her website… her photography is perty spiffy!
If you wanna see my camera’s photo-documentation (a bit less spectacular)… go to Squid Row Mama’s Flickr account.
You can see here that Harold has a few sweets (British candy bars)… gifts from Keith (aka Squidman). And what’s that on Harold’s noggin? Squid bait…. or rather bait for salmon that look like squid. hee hee. This is the sillyness that goes on in Silly-nas on Firstiest Friday.
What’s Spinning on the ipod…
Dance Department Podcast- with Dennis Ruyer “serving the universe”
Noms…
Squidman’s “in a jam? Squidman’s Blackberry jam”(and crackers… I’m not like Randie who just spoons it from the jar)… and this jam is AWESOME! Thanks again, Keith! nom, nom, nom.
