For those of you who aren’t in my immediate circle, you may or may not know that I had signed up for this. Insane you might think, there’s no way you could finish that! well I did, after 6 mo of training me and my friend did it in about 4.5 hours. Here’s the pic of me in my orange headband (that you only get from finishing) to prove it!!!

I know I’ve been a bad cartoonist and I haven’t really been “on” these last few weeks, but life sometimes gets in the way and well CH ain’t paying the bills so it sometimes takes a back seat. Any who, we [I] was interviewed by an amazing artist and friend Laura Worrick this past week for her website/design studio that she runs with her boy friend David in GA. They are jacks of all trades and their work ranges from large lighting fixtures, to landscape art, to the more traditional stuff.
Laura is a Über talented artist and illustrator and if you need/have a project i give her the Canned Ham Seal of approval!!!

Hello fans, true believers, and friends,
I thought I would draw your attention to the donate for a drawing button!!! For the low low price of what ever you want to donate, I’ll make you an original hand drawn (no computers used) piece of art on a limited edition official Canned Ham Postcard!!!
Why am I doing this? I’ve always wanted to be able to offer something like this on the site, I’d also like to make a little scratch to help maintain the site. So please click the button, make a donation and send me your address and you’ll have a nice little piece of artwork for your office, a gift, what ever!!!
Thanks in advance!

Well we’re back! lots has happened since August… Changes have happened all over the place. I feel like I’m in a good spot. And I think Canned Ham will be too. Like I said previously, this is not where I’m going to air my Dirty Laundry. There’s too much of that on the internet and well it ain’t no body’s business but mine! If you’re a friend then you know what’s going on, if you’re just a reader, you don’t need to know.
I’ve lost 40lbs(see pic below), ran a 5k, had my tonsils removed and my nose fixed. Here’s a pic of me from 2009 and a pic of me from the other night. No I’m not flexing… I’ve got a new feature I’m going to be running on here and I needed a pose, The computer has photobooth and there’s a bazillion pics of me doing something goofy in there, when I took this pic I was amazed to see the weight I had lost. I mean people have told me I’ve lost a lot of weight, and I know the scale doesn’t lie, but to see it for really the first time was quite jarring. Just thought I’d Share
Yay me!!!
Yes Ogden has grown a nose. Like me things are changing for him. I really like him with a big blue nose and I hope you do too! It’s 2011 and it’s a new year and let’s hope it’s better than 2010.
Thanks for reading!!!

Ok so obviously I missed my target date…. I think I am going to push it off till Jan 1 as I begin to redesign and build a buffer. Hopefully I haven’t lost too many readers….
