Artist's Commentary Please, please, please, please, please, don't write and complain about my use of the word barf. BARF actually has a huge following. No, not that kind of barf. It's called the BARF diet and it's an acronym for Biologically Appropriate Raw Food. It's something some pet owners are pretty adamant about; feeding their pets (dogs mostly) only raw natural foods. In a nutshell, they're pretty anti-table scraps and anti-processed foods for dogs. I no longer own a dog, so I haven't thought about the issue much in years. I think I probably agree with their basic premise, dogs don't naturally eat grain and veggies, which, as I understand it, constitutes a good portion of most processed dog foods and most table scraps. My only thought is they're going to a lot of trouble with their own recipes. My recommendation: if you want to put your dog on a BARF diet, go the easy route. Here's my list of no muss, no fuss BARF recipes. 1) Neighborhood cats. Any will do. Friendly suggestion: start with my neighborhood. 2) Neighbors. Any will do. Friendly suggestion: start with my neighbors. Published June 27, 2010

Artist's Commentary The history of the "Ten Gallon Hat" comes from the misunderstanding of the Spanish word "Galón". Vaqueros, Mexican cowboys, wore braided hatbands on their sombreros, "hats". The Spanish word for braid is galón. If a vaquero wore ten galóns on their hat, it was a ten galón hat, or a "Ten-Gallon-Hat". And just in case you were wondering, Hoss Cartwright of the Ponderosa wore a ten gallon hat. Published July 5, 2010 |

Artist's Commentary What's an expert? I read somewhere, that the more a man knows, the more he knows, he doesn't know. So I suppose one definition of an expert would be someone who doesn't admit out loud that he knows enough about a subject to know he doesn't really know how much. Published August 9, 2010 |

Artist's Commentary If you're planning on meeting out any vigilante justice by burying someone up to their necks in sand, take this tip from the very popular TV show Mythbusters. They tested whether it was possible to successfully escape being buried up to the neck in sand. Team member Tory Belleci was buried in dry sand. Within five minutes, he was able to free one of his arms, and in eighty-six minutes he was able to dig himself out. However, when the other team members began dumping water on the sand simulating an incoming tide, the water collapsed the sand back into the cavities he was able to create. He eventually had to have help escaping. So, what have we learned? It takes a pretty savvy person to successfully enjoy a career as a top notch torturer or a vigilante. Bottom line. Leave it to the professionals. Published October 4, 2010 |
