Thanksgiving 2008

T'was the day 'fore Thanksgiving, and all through the kitchen,
Not a side dish was stirring, not even a fixin'.

The dishes were set on the table with care,
In hopes that a great feast soon would be there.

...I'd finish this poem, but away I must dash!
For there's a turkey to cook, and potatoes to mash!

So here's wishing you the most joyful of days,
And THANKS for being you, in so many ways!

Halloween 2008

Helpful Halloween Hint:

If you're trying to save money on this Ween that is Hallo,
Keep in mind that the candy will be on sale tomorrow!

Bird Brain

I drew this comic in celebration of being offered the position of student activities coordinator with the MIT Energy Initiative (aka, MITEI, pronounced 'mighty'!) I am really looking forward to working with students again, at my alma mater, and in a fairly newly established program with globally important goals. My role in the program will include providing guidance to energy and sustainability student groups, helping to organize student leadership events, and coordinating student/faculty relationships for relevant research projects.

Fourth of July

I cannot believe it's already July!   
Spring here in Boston always seems to fly by.
But I guess with the Celtics' spectacular scores, 
And the restaurants' wide open patio doors,
It's no wonder I haven't kept track of the time.

...SO, while my comic has little to do with this rhyme,
I wish you a Fourth that's an absolute blast!   
Let's hope it's not over and done with so fast...

(Coincidentally, I'll be in NYC this year for the 4th. But I'll be driving, so I can bring my torch if I darn well please.)

Easter

I had thought the bunny should say something in return (friends had suggested some great quips about diversifying one's portfolio, for example), but Easter approached so quickly this year that I didn't have time to incorporate the additional quote. Thus it is left to the reader exactly WHAT the chicken said about the situation.

For Sydney

Sydney is the 4 year old daughter of a friend of mine, who asked if I could draw her "2 turtles that are saying something to each other." So cute.

Valentine's Day 2008

Valentine's Day is for the birds.

Christmas 2007

Sometimes I feel bad for the tree when it has to support so many ornaments that have been collected over so many years...

OZA Christmas 2007

Based on the equivalent human universal, this comic was drawn for OZA's holiday card.

Thanksgiving 2007

Clearly these turkeys are neither May nor Flower.
