Ah, in thee gorjus stijl: great idea, terrible execution!
A fairly typical (if less Berekelyized then normal) Adrian Tomine girl. And, the real t-shirt Girl X is wearing.
The following are napkin sketches made at W.C. Don’s on a trip to see Jaysus (currently unJaxxied, as she is in the hinterlands training soldiers to fight for peace). We listened to the Kink Kontroversy and he lined me up with Crankonuts and then, God forbid, I drank a couple of Sparks, and when a couple of pals showed up I had so much sugar coursing through my veins that I genuinely felt I could bend steel. With my face.
M: Hey, what’s going on?
Gorjus: I can see seventeen new colors. In your mouth.
M: (moves to the other end of the bar)
Happy Wednesday! Bonus Fun for you fmr. (+ current) Starkvillians for digging on the old five-number phone numbers we used to have.
Hey! This does make it a happy Wednesday!
Will continue to laugh about you bending steel with your face for 48 hrs. or so.
Damnit. Now I have to dig out my Sundays CDs.
thanks! this is cool and I think i remember that girly. too bad you suck and lost/smeared/sweated her number. HAha, bending steel-face!
I think this story took place in that period of time where you didn’t have electricity—no wonder you sweated off her number!
But hey! You would’ve had to’ve walked to the Shell station to call her up anyway. It was really for the best.
sparks? oy vey! I’ve been meaning to ask, why to you like yer gals to have closed eyes? the downturned ‘closed’ is a pleasantly resting look, as opposed to the upturned closed eye which implies big happy smiles.
jp!, i think in this one, it gives the image of elusiveness and slight coyness, as if she is waiting for the game to begin. BUT, i could be wrong.
hey sally, i’m calling from coconuts. can you call me back cuz i’m 25, and i don’t have long distance…....
pinky, i believe that, but its often a theme for Gorj. and i was wondering if that’s what he does to indicate warm feelings towards a woman he may draw in a given scene.
Um, is that girl hot or is she the Joker? Haha!
Oh, oh, oh. Two things: (1) gorjus, as cute as you are now, you were positively HOTT with those locks of yesteryear (the Sweet brothers had nothing on you, my man); and (2) I find your Adrian Tomine girl hard to look at for very long, so crushingly beautiful is she. Jiminy crickets.
I like to drink Sparks, too! You wanna meet me at Don’s for some Sparks?
i had one today on the way back from lunch!
Awesome! Damn, is this the nostalgia comic strip now? You need to do more strips about how much fun I had in college…I would like to see things like Hank doing horrible things with alcohol, bands that I hated to hear but liked to hang out with, the many good and bad RA’s, something to do with Papa John’s, WMSV, Rk3’s escapades, and whatever else I am forgetting…hop to it…churn out some goods, oh, and be sure to include the many hot girls that cluttered the landscape as well.
do i get to be cluttered in the landscape? or do i get left out becuz i’m the artist’s sister? there were plenty ‘o memories from us, Dr., if you remember…
do a comic with our good friend, Professor Longstroke! you know, he emailed me the other day!
