Bears With Ill Fitting Hats – Darn that Gleeful Gecko

So I realize that somewhere buried deep in this blog, I am a perpetuator of an Internet meme. Dont go lookinging for it. The spam kharma police with hunt you down and hurt you. Not wanting to turn this into a “Post a cute picture” blog, I am afraid that Herbert and Densecat are treading dangerously close. Then I read on the GLEEFUL’S page talking about Wondermark’s new Internet Meme for the new Year. Like a moth to the flame, I was sucked into the Flickr album of Bears with Ill Fitting Hats!!!! Curse you!!!!

“OK one more time, then bedtime….”GEE Master Chief, I wonder what is in this Cave…I dont know Cortana! Lets Go Looks”

Picture by   HALCYONSNOW  ( http://www.flickr.com/photos/halcyonsnow/ ) Its his picture, so if he gets mad about me putting it here, I will let him egg my house.  He is also the one who started the Flickr album.  So maybe he should be looking out for eggs.

But you must admit…its a cute bear.

Yup it might be a good year.

peace and Halo grease

Herbert and Densecat

So for a comic starved world the new series “Herbert and Densecat” will soon be coming to a blog page near you!
It is a series from the mind that brought you:

“I’m the bhuddah in the Clown suit”

and

“Jupiter has a lot of moons!”

Yes, I will try to bring to you the story of Herbert and Densecat, as faithfully as possible to how it flows out of Garrett’s mouth.  A truely tall order.  Since he has been saying that in Episode 71 Jenn comes back because she is an Apple Care Engineer,  I am not sure, with the writers guild strike, if I can get caught up.

He is a small number of our characters:

Here is Densecat. Its a girl cat.


Here is Herbert.  I only recall he was friends with Jen, but she left,  but Zoe is his friend too,

Here is Zoe.  I know nothing about her.  She is a absolutely new character, but she is beautiful. What else does one need to know.

Jen is the original character that I knew of.  She apparently has disappeared only to come back later (episode 71)  as an Apple Care Engineer.  Your guess is as good as mine.

Who knows when I can get a workable story out of Garrett.  But he keeps wanting to do story boards.  So be afraid…be VERY afraid.

Peace and apple care grease

Portal, Portal, who has the Portal?

How I do science too!

So I haven’t mentioned Portal in a little while.

The kids sing the Portal song “Still Alive” all the time. Scott Ramsoomair of VG CATS  fame has made a Fan Video of Coulton’s song.  You should check it out here!

 I ran across a Weebl & Bob cartoon about Portal. If you dont know Weebl & Bob, its a funny little flash cartoon along the lines of Homestar Runner. Its a fair bit more NSFW, but the voices alway mumble so not so much verbal profanity.  But I can warn you, if you play it with the speakers up I bet you will get people asking “What the Hell is THAT?”

OH and a BIG Shout out to my brother (from another mother) STAN, but everyone knows him as Nancy…wait thats not right. He is another faithful reader that I didn’t credit as stopping through here on a semi regular basis. We shared office space at NIH when I started at Bethesda.

Here is a picture of Stan and I. Guess who is who.

Stan and I

So here’s a WHAZZZAUP! to Stan. Miss ya bro! Come on up for a Guiness.
