  4. Love the concept and the humour. Class!
    First ear hair is lonely, better
    to cultivate and socialise. It's a community thing!

  31. Hello fellow artist,
    I recently visited a blog called art-blogging where I noticed you Blog was either listed or you had requested to be listed.
    I also requested to be listed on this site however the site has not been updated for 8 months.
    So I've decided to start my own Online Artist List Directory.
    I would love to see a link to your site included on the list.
    If you are interested, please go to http://alexsartlist.blogspot.com and leave your link in a comment.
    Of course there is no fee or any obligation.
    I will be updating the site daily.

    Kindest regards
    ALex Harvey

  36. Willie! I was in Dallas this week! I think I remember a dead squirrel... could it have been the one? Your sketches are a Big "D" treasure! (that's "Dallas" for the uninitiated- I didn't just insult Willie's art)- your neighbor- Random

  37. It's a little known fact that all those email hoaxes are in fact REAL OPPORTUNITIES.

    I am writing this to you from my laptop, sitting on a beach in the bahamas after responding to a message from Dr Nigel Kulakula from Nigeria informing me that I had $38 squillion in trapped funds needing my attention in Lagos.

  39. Willie if your brain is a fountain, where does the water come from. What inspires your great art, love the forgotten IF, very specific list.

    1.No ear hairs yet (so lucky)
    2.Never ran over any animals, that I know of
    3.You can try to hold it in, but it has to come out one way or another (yeah thats right)
    4.I always delete unknown emails, too much junkmail to delete.
    5. Never given one, and sure have not received one, then again I always pass out at parties, nah no way.

    Extremely unique, good work.
