<br />
An overview of a 40 minute conversation I just had with four different operators at UPS:<br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Me: I need the building I just bought and am living in to be switched from a commercial address to a residential one.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">3rd UPS operator: It's listed commercial.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Me:I know. It was a commercial building for many years. It is now where we live</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">UPS: Do you have a tracking number so we can investigate it?</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Me: Are you telling me you can't change the address until someone ships something to me?</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">UPS: Corre</span><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">ct</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">Me: xxxx-xxxx-xxx The package is actually a ceiling fan for my living room</span><br />

UPS: The tracking is showing it's a commercial address<br />
Me: I know! I need it changed!</div>

<br />
2 minutes later....</div>
<br />
<br />
<div class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 18px;">
<br />
4th UPS operator: I need a tracking number so we can investigate<br />
Me: I can tell you it will show commercial. I need you guys to change it.<br />
UPS: We have to investigate it.<br />
Me: Can't you just switch it?<br />
UPS: No. we need the tracking so we can investigate it. In 3 to 5 days we will send you an email confirming whether it is commercial or residential.<br />
Me. I don't need you to confirm anything. I know it's residential and I know you have it listed as commercial. I need you to change it!<br />
UPS: Our team will get with you in 3 to 5 business days. Can I help you with anything else?<br />
Me: Yes. Can you get me the number to FedEx?</div>

<i>Cincinnati Enquirer June 6, 1914</i></div>
<i>LIFE SENTENCE FOR TOLLIVER</i><div>
<i>Grayson, Ky, June 3 - In the Carter Circuit Court here to-day O. W. Tolliver was convicted and given a life sentence in the penitentiary for killing Lafe Fraley, of Rowan County, at a soft-drink stand at Olive Hill, May 16. Tolliver is a brother of the late Craig Tolliver, of Rowan County feud history. </i></div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Apparently those soft drink stands were a magnet for the seedier side of Northeastern KY. That explains why <a href="http://billytackett.blogspot.com/2012/08/olive-hill-hates-soft-drinks.html">Olive Hill wanted to ban them</a>!</div>

<i>May 24 1911</i><br />
<i>ORDINANCE HELD TO BE VOID</i><br />
<i>Frankfort Ky, May 23 - The Kentucky Court of Appeals to-day declared void an ordinance regulating the sale of soft drinks, passed by the council of Olive Hill, Ky.</i><br />
<br />
OK, I found a link to the case which can be found in <a href="http://books.google.com/books?id=tz4LAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA509&lpg=PA509&dq=ordinance+to+regulate+soft+drinks+Olive+Hill&source=bl&ots=EtlXcQqRDu&sig=fj3OkkBPVJt-b_vrfm_axx7yB-E&hl=en&sa=X&ei=MKolUMGqMISO8wTDl4GoDw&sqi=2&ved=0CFQQ6AEwAw#v=onepage&q=ordinance%20to%20regulate%20soft%20drinks%20Olive%20Hill&f=false">Volume 137 of the Southwestern Reporter</a>. It begins on the right hand side with Tolliver vs. Blizzard police judge. There's alot of old timey legalese going on and is kinda hard for me to understand (or is it the Crown Royal?) but I think the last paragraph of the judgement clears up the matter a little:<br />
<br /><i>(The ordinance) specifies certain soft drink which may be sold. The sale of all other soft drinks is prohibited. Among the number might be enumerated several soft drinks that are absolutely harmless. It will not do to say that the city council is the arbiter of public taste. It cannot prescribe what harmless drinks shall, or shall not, be sold. Its power to prohibit is confined to those drinks which are harmful or deleterious to the public health and morals. The ordinance before us is not restricted in its application. It prohibits the sale of many harmless drinks, and is so broad in its scope and so discriminatory in its character as to constitute an unlawful interference with the liberty of the citizen, which includes, not merely the right to acquire property, but the right to buy and sell it. That being true, we conclude the ordinance is unreasonable and void. </i><br />
<i><br /></i>
While I was reading this I kept thinking "Harmless?" Going by what we know now about obesity ans diabetes I think the Olive Hill City Council may have been...dare I say it?...visionary in their attempts. It makes me wonder about what laws and ordinances being paraded before us now that we (I) scream will infringe our civil liberties will turn out to be a pretty good idea 100 years from now?Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13629044084098472677noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12282744.post-2393025459631392462012-08-10T10:19:00.000-04:002012-08-10T10:19:10.015-04:00Bootleggers and brick makersGood news everyone! This one's a two-fer! Not nearly as juicy as the last one but nevertheless...<br /><br /><i>Cincinnati Enquirer</i><br />
<i>Apr. 2, 1903</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Olive Hill Ky, April 1 - Alonso Dehart, who attempted to jump on a freight train here yesterday and came near falling under the wheels, has been arrested, charged with selling whisky in Elliot County without a license.<br /><br />Olive Hill, Ky, Apr. 1 - Theodore Scott, aged 14, sustained a crushed hip and other injuries by being run over at the brick plant.</i><br />
<br />
The Dehart incident intrigues me. Were the two events related? How so? I want more information. Although I'm sure the vignette I have running in my head with Don Knotts as Alonso Dehart and Jack Elam as the town marshal is much more interesting....<br />
<br />
It would also be interesting with Elam as Dehart and Knotts as the marshal.

<br />
<i>Cincinnati Enquirer Apr 5, 1903<br />THRICE</i><br />
<i>She has Been Married</i><br />
<i>Brief Story of Her Life Told By Mrs. Ferguson,</i><br />
<i>Who Is Accused of Poisoning Her Foster Mother</i><br />
<i>Declares She Only Gave Medicine Prescribed By the Doctor - Effects of Imprisonment</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Grayson, Ky, April 4 - The preliminary trial of Mrs. Marie Ferguson, charged with having given poison to Mrs. Wilson of Olive Hill, has been passed until next Wednesday in order that the analysis of the stomach of the deceased might be completed.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Mrs. Ferguson for the first time discussed her case fully to-day, though she is under the care of a physician. She said: I was born and raised in Greenup County, Ky, 10 miles from Portsmouth Ohio, where I lived until about 15 years of age. At that time I was stolen from my home, and by chance fell in with the Wilson family at Olive Hill, where at different times in my life I made my home.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>THRICE MARRIED</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Mrs. Ferguson stated that she had been married three times, once to Jerome Bonapart Bryant, a traveling man, who was subject to heart disease, from which he dropped dead in Georgia. She was not appraised of his death until after his burial, being in Texas at the time. Another husband, William Daulton, was drowned in the Atlantic while bathing. Dr. Ferguson, her present husband, with whom she has not lived for some time, is now an inmate of the asylum at Lexington Ky.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Mrs. Ferguson said she had been an invalid the greater part of her life and had traveled extensively in various parts of the United States for the last three years. Prior to last fall, when she went to live with the Wilson family, she had made Portsmouth (Ohio) her home. While on a visit to the Wilson family at Olive Hill last summer she said Mr. and Mrs. Wilson, whom she had always called her father and mother, insisted that she come and make her home with them, and she went there in September last.<br /><br />GAVE HER CALOMEL</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<i>Mrs. Ferguson, on being questioned about having given Mrs. Wilson some medicine, alleged to have been poison, stated that while she had been using some </i><i>mazivenn(?)</i><i> , which Mrs. Wilson called for and which she gave her, as Mrs. Wilson had taken it several times before. On Friday Mrs. Wilson was very sick and Dr. Hanfield having left some calomel for her, Mrs. Ferguson stated that she gave the calomel as directed. After taking this the patient complained of having a headache and called for acetanilide, which Mrs. Ferguson gave. Mrs. Ferguson further said the condition of Mrs. Wilson was such that on Friday and Saturday nights she was up the greater part of the time waiting on her and that she did not leave the Wilson home until after supper Sunday evening. She says that Mr. Wilson told her he would rather, if convenient, she would leave, that he would not then tell her what for, but that she would find out. Her imprisonment is already telling on Mrs. Ferguson.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
First off I will give my thoughts on just the article without doing any research. This story stinks! She was "stolen" from her home at 15 and "fell in" with the Wilsons?? This reporter needed to be strung up for not getting into this! Any way... Is it just me or does everybody else notice a pattern? I would like to know the circumstances behind Dr. Ferguson's "insanity". My guess is that there are a few other deaths that could have been connected to her as well. I say she's a good candidate for a serial killer.<br />
<br />
I couldn't find any information on maziven. But like most medicines back then the other two could be deadly. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetanilide">Acetanilide was the forerunner of acetaminophen</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calomel">calomel is mercury chloride</a>.<br />
<br />
Now for the research part: I found this great write up about Mrs. Ferguson by Glen Haney titled <a href="http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~kycarter/journals/God_Only_Knows_by_Glen_Haney.pdf">God Only Knows</a>. According to his sources she was married to Daulton first and then Bryant. The background on Dr. Ferguson's insanity is given, although I suspect poison could have been involved. Mrs. Ferguson is also connected to another murder although it seemed she got away with it each time. Spoiler alert: She was found not guilty in the death of Mrs. Wilson too!<br />
<br />
And then history eventually swallows her up...<br />

Ghostly things continue to happen. We keep learning more about the building. And so on.... I will be sharing more of that in the future but right now I want to share something else with you.<br />
<br />
While doing some research on Casa de Zombie I did a little keyword search for my hometown, Olive Hill, KY, in the Cinci Enquirer and came up with a bunch of juicy tidbits I think I'll start posting.<br /><br />I know not everybody gives a shit about the place I grew up but in order to make these palatable for the general public I will be adding some commentary. Enjoy...or don't...whatever...<br /><br /><i>Cincinnati Enquirer Oct. 4, 1902</i><br />
<i>WHAT ONE BULLET DID</i><br />
<i>Special Dispatch to the Enquirer</i><br />
<i>OLIVE HILL, KY, October 3 - At Reeder Postoffice, Nannie, the eight-year-old daughter of Joe Gilliam, dropped a revolver. The weapon discharged a ball that passed through her knee and took off one of the fingers of her grandmother, aged 89. The ball lodged in the aged lady's temple and she will die. The doctors say the girl's leg will have to be amputated above the knee.</i><br />
<i><br /></i>
<a href="http://www.billytackett.com/oh12.pdf">www.billytackett.com/oh12.pdf </a><i><br /></i><br />There's a lot going on in these four sentences. Most obvious is why was Nannie playing with a loaded pistol? Secondly, one thing that struck me is the matter-of-fact style articles were written in back then. "...she will die". Really? But is suppose I was a bit surprised that and 89 year old shot in the head wasn't killed instantly and didn't just *poof* away in a cloud of dust and cobwebs. Just goes to show we were a tougher species back then. I mean just those that made it through childhood alive were tough sons of bitches.<br />
<br />
That's it for now. I'll post another in a few days.<br />Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13629044084098472677noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12282744.post-44068057015606484522012-07-24T11:20:00.002-04:002012-07-24T11:20:29.884-04:00Casa de ZOMBIE!Wow, I have really been neglecting my blog. Lost'a stuff goin' on. Like Dead White & Blue Comics is now available. You can get it in my <a href="http://store.billytackett.com/product/dead-white-blue-comics-1"><b>store</b></a>. Zombies and aliens and Nazis, oh my!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
Now for the really big news....We are now the proud owners of a building we have christened Casa de Zombie!<br /><br /><a href="http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/s720x720/522791_3987833894968_450084916_n.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="background-color: white; margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://sphotos-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn1/s720x720/522791_3987833894968_450084916_n.jpg" width="400" /></a><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Don't really have much time to go into it but here's a thumbnail:</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We closed on the building at the end of May after trying to get the financing squared away for over a year! The house is a bit of a paradox in that it's in good shape but needs a lot of work. We've been trying to make it habitable so we can move in ASAP. I've been doing a little video diary to document the changes being made. I'll post the first two at the end of this post. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br />I'm also working on a history of the building. It was built around 1874 as a hotel and tavern. From what I'm gathering from newspaper articles and the few mentions of the building in history essays it was a less than reputable establishment. I'm sure the building has tales to tell...</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Now for the question that everyone asks: Is it haunted? The short answer: I think so. We've been having strange experiences since the first time we went to view the property! Won't go into much here at the moment but I will say that we've started keeping a log of the "happenings" and we will be having a team in to investigate. More on that when it happens.</div>

As most of you know I am working on the Dead White & Blue Comics. The first part is nearing completion. Yeah, yeah, I k now it was supposed to have been here before now but I picked up some really cool commissions in the last couple months of 2011 that had some really tight deadlines so here we are. Money talks, right? Anywhooo...<br />
<br />
The comic is going to be an homage to the comics I grew up with in the 70s, mainly Marvel and DC with some Charlton thrown in for good measure. It is going to be the entire package with simulated shitty printing and all. Here's where you guys come in; I'm adding what Marvel called the Bullpen Bulletins. If you're not familiar this is how the page is described on Wikipedia:<br />
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.4em;">"<b>Bullpen Bulletins</b>" was the news and information page... it included items such as previews of upcoming Marvel publications (the "Mighty Marvel Checklist"), news about and profiles of Marvel staff members, occasional references to real-world trends and events, and perhaps most famously, "Stan's Soapbox" (alternately known as "Stan Lee's Soapbox"), a monthly column written by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stan_Lee" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Stan Lee">Stan Lee</a>.</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.4em;">With "Bullpen Bulletins," Lee created the friendly, chatty editorial voice of Marvel Comics — "a style that could be characterized as High Hipster — two parts <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lord_Buckley" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Lord Buckley">Lord Buckley</a>, one part <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austin_Powers_(character)" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Austin Powers (character)">Austin Powers</a>,"<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Lethem_0-0" style="line-height: 1em;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullpen_Bulletins#cite_note-Lethem-0" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none; white-space: nowrap;">[1]</a></sup> putting "himself on a first-name basis with the readership at a time when the rival <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_Comics" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="DC Comics">DC</a> editors generally came across... as... stodgy adults."<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-Evanier_1-0" style="line-height: 1em;"><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullpen_Bulletins#cite_note-Evanier-1" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none; white-space: nowrap;">[2]</a></sup></div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.4em;">The "Bullpen Bulletins" page was where Lee rhapsodized about the Marvel "bullpen," the stable of in-house creators who produced the company's comics. He often bestowed colorful sobriquets on Marvel staffers and creators; nicknames such as Stan "The Man" Lee and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Kirby" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Jack Kirby">Jack "King" Kirby</a> permeated into mass culture. The fictional Marvel staffer <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irving_Forbush" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="Irving Forbush">Irving Forbush</a> also appeared regularly — as the butt of Lee's humor. Similarly, phrases like "Excelsior!", "'Nuff said," "True Believer," and "Make Mine Marvel," as well as other company mainstays like the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/No-Prize" style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-color: initial; background-image: none; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; color: #0b0080; text-decoration: none;" title="No-Prize">No-Prize</a>, were popularized there as well." <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullpen_Bulletins" style="background-color: transparent;">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullpen_Bulletins</a><br />
<br />
I'm gong to emulate this as well as adding a small 'letters to the editor' section. And that is you come in my friends. I need questions! Since this is the first issue there won't be and comic related questions of course so just ask me something. Serious, not-so-serious, it doesn't matter. I'll pick a couple three or four and answer them in the column. So feel free to leave them here or on my Facebook page or email billy@billytackett.com Thanks!</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.4em;">If you want to get an idea about the comic I have<a href="http://comics.billytackett.com/dwbsample1.html"> <b>14 pages online to sample</b></a><b>.</b> These are pages I pulled that makes a single narrative kinda giving some back story. It's a little wordy but rest assured there's plenty of brain-eatin', Nazi-stompin' action! <a href="http://comics.billytackett.com/dwbsample1.html" style="background-color: transparent;"><b>http://comics.billytackett.com/dwbsample1.html</b></a><br />

If you need a visual as to what the Bullpen Bulletins looked like here is a good example:</div><div style="background-color: white; font-family: sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 19px; margin-bottom: 0.5em; margin-top: 0.4em;"><br />

Whether you commissioned a piece, bought a print or t-shirt, 'liked' one of my pieces on Facebook, sent a friend to my site, stopped by the booth at a con to say hi or are just reading this blog. This year has had a lot of personal ups and downs that have had me a bit unfocused at times that I haven't talked about publicly but I know you want zombies and I want to deliver them! It's that symbiotic relationship that helps regain my focus when I need it. Thanks! Here's to remembering the good things about 2011 and leaving the bad behind as we move on to 2012. Cheers!<br />
<br />
I thought I'd try something new this year. I'm going to show most of the art that I did over the last year, I'm missing some photos of some con sketches though. There also may be a piece or two here that I haven't shown yet. Look closely!<br />

Sounds good but as the article points out there are drawbacks. But all that is beside my point...</span></div><div style="line-height: 16px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br style="line-height: 16px;" /></span></div><div style="line-height: 16px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">...which is; has anyone noticed all these bills written to prevent pirating and protect creators seem to be geared toward movies, music and the like? You know, industries that rake in billions of dollars a year that can afford to lobby our government to write bills that would protect their creations and innovations...all the while every couple years the Orphan Works Bill rears its ugly head. The Orphan Works Bill would essentially strip the automatic copyright laws away making it open season on creations by independent artists. The bill is backed by some big names like Google who stand to make a shit ton of money by legally stealing any art or photography they find online. And everytime the bills comes up we have to fight tooth and nail to stop it. </span></div><div style="line-height: 16px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br style="line-height: 16px;" /></span></div><div style="line-height: 16px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">But when was the last time a bill was written that could potentially strip away the copyrights of Disney or Time-Warner? It just really pisses me off to hear these douchebag politicians use phrases like "our battle to protect America's creators and innovators" when I know it's all bullshit propoganda. Lip-service. When was the last time an FBI SWAT team busted down a door because someone was illegally printing art they stole off of DeviantART? My guess is never...</span></div><div style="line-height: 16px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br style="line-height: 16px;" /></span></div><div style="line-height: 16px; padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">So, for all the independent artists out there whose livelihoods hang in the balance every time Google decides it's tired of being tethered by the 'antiquated' copyright system I offer our duly-elected politicians a whole-hearted "Fuck You" and the largest middle finger I can come up with!

Which means we <b>will not be attending</b> the event unless there is an act of God or someone cancels and our number comes up. We apologize to everyone. </span><br />
<div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 14px;"><br />
</span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 14px;">Anyone that has attended either <b>GenCon</b> or <b>Dragon*Con</b> knows that both shows eat up a lot of time and effort. Doing both, which are less than a month apart, is a feat that requires all your energy, attention and money. In the mad rush we just didn't get around to getting our tables and now it's too late.<br />
<br />
For anyone that was planning on buying a copy of <b>Dead White & Blue Comics</b> at Horrorhound Weekend, you will still be able to get them online. We are also planning on doing some local signing events at places like <b>Rockin' Rooster Comics</b> as well as other cities, so all is not lost.<br />
<br />
Once again we apologize and hope you forgive us. </span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; line-height: 14px;"><br />

<b>2.</b> Do you wanna party? It's party time! And I might be lending a hand...<br />
<b>3.</b> In order to find good customer service at a restaurant around Dragon*Con one must search out a Burger King on the edge of the rough side of town...take note T-H-O-M-A-S of Max Lager's...<br />
<b>4.</b> We must have parked way out in the Rape Section...<br />
<b>5.</b> The taint is the Bigfoot of the human anatomy.<br />
<b>6.</b> Food for thought: All those gross people who are covered with body paint had to have help...<br />

He only draws zombies when he is paid to do so whereas I (along with a bunch of other guys and gals) was drawing zombies a long time before I anyone paid me to do so. I did it because I was, and still am, a fan. I happen to be blessed because I now get paid to do what I love.<br />
<br />
Next time you happen to chat with [that other zombie artist] ask him if he will still be drawing zombies when he is no longer paid to do so and then ask me the same question.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13629044084098472677noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12282744.post-48990030960418155092011-07-27T10:10:00.000-04:002011-07-27T10:10:50.743-04:00New show!First off thanks to Fright Night Film Fest/ Fandom Fest for having us out last weekend.

Second, I'm a little late in announcing this but this weekend we'll be attending <a href="http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=146150882130092">Lexicon at Al's Bar, 601 North Lime St. Lexington KY</a>. Mark Kidwell, Mike Holman, RD Hall along with others that I'm forgetting at the moment. C'mon, art, comics, beer and an auction that benefits cancer research? You can't beat that with a stick!<br />
<br />
And don't forget that I'll have my newest prints available...<br />

First off is the<b> <a href="http://www.northsiderocks.com/">Northside Rock n Roll Carnival</a></b> held this Saturday & Sunday in Cincinnati. A great time with good music, good food and good beer. I hear rumors that the <a href="http://www.pickledbrothers.com/"><b>Pickled Brothers Sideshow</b></a> will be there Sunday. The booth will be manned...er, or womanned, perhaps, by my wonderful wife but I won't be there until Sunday evening. Why not? Because I will be in Olive Hill participating in an art show honoring my high school art teacher, Larry Carroll.<br />
<br />
We added Dragon*con to our schedule as well as the Nashville Comic and Horror Fest.<br />
<br />
A big thanks to Dave and the Con-tamination crew for a great show in St. Louis last weekend. Thanks to everyone that stopped by.Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13629044084098472677noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12282744.post-60558158982631021372011-06-21T19:12:00.000-04:002011-06-21T19:12:22.637-04:00Origins and Con-tamination and free shit!Just wanted to put out a couple things going on this weekend. First off I'll be at <a href="http://www.originsgamefair.com/"><b>Origins Game Fair</b></a> in Columbus this <b>Thursday only</b>! I won't have a booth but I will be at the <a href="http://www.charcon.org/"><b>Charcon</b> </a>booth helping promote their event coming up in October. Since I won't be selling stuff there I wanted to do something so I think I will be giving away a <b>limited number of hand drawn sketch cards</b>. The exact number is unknown because I'll just give 'em away until my pack runs out. Also, you have to actually stop by the booth. I won't be handing them out to any old Joe Schmoe. As for the booth; we believe that the booth will not be in the vendor area but will be out in the main hall. So stop by the Charcon booth and get some free shit!<br />
<br />
We'll be leavin' early Friday morn for St. Louis for the always fun and entertaining <b><a href="http://www.con-tamination.com/">Con-Tamination</a></b>. The Fantastic Four will be there along with a Jason, a Leatherface, a Candy Man, a couple a barbarians, some zombies, a porn star and a jack-ass. Artists include myself, Johnny Bopp, Dick Starr and Joel Robinson. There's also some cool vendors like World of Strange. Come get screwy in St. Louie with us!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13629044084098472677noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12282744.post-67693160512488889412011-06-15T14:25:00.001-04:002011-06-15T14:26:27.977-04:00Contagion, Contagion, Contagion!I know<i> </i>it's been a while but things have been pretty crazy but we just got back from Contagion in Omaha Nebraska and had such a great time that I had to dust off the old blog and write about it...I am also bringing back the Top 10 List of Things That Will Not Be Elaborated Upon.<br />
<br />
First off I wanted to thank everyone involved for making out trip simply phenomenal. First year shows can have bumps and stops but from our perspective everything was pitch perfect. So kudos to the staff of Contagion!<br />
<br />
Secondly, big thanks to the folks of the Omaha Chapter of the<a href="http://www.zombieresearch.org/"> <b>Zombie Research Society</b></a> who were instrumental in getting us out there and took care of us. We owe you! Special thanks to Pat for taking the time to shuttle us around and show us the great city of Omaha.<br />
<br />
Lastly, the attendees and fans we met were super nice and welcoming. Omaha has a great fandom community in place that really seems to be on the same page and works together to make things happen. Omaha could be a great destination to get your convention fix in the very near future...<br />
<br />
We had a great time hanging out with the head of Zombie Research Society, Matt Mogk, and all the Omaha Zombie Research Society. On Saturday the ZRS presented Matt and me with some special art, caricatures by local artists. Mine was a zombification by Eric White who you can find at <a href="http://www.geekywhiteguy.com/">www.geekywhiteguy.com</a><br />

</div>We also got to hang out with a couple of the Walking Dead zombies, Sonya Thompson and Melissa Cowan...and while I'm writing this I realize that we didn't get ANY pictures of the extra-curricular activities so you'll just have to take my word for it. I mean we spent half the day Monday hanging out with them and our unofficial tour guide Logan and have nothing to show for it...except this photo of me and my new hat...<br />

<br />
Independent musicians- Many musicians and bands go out and pound the pavement, playing gigs, making fans, and producing & releasing their own music in the hopes to getting a recording contract with a major label. And some actually become successful with any ties to a major recording label. There are even radio stations dedicated to indie and unsigned musicians. Indie music is accepted.<br />
<br />
Independent movies- Many filmmakers shoot their own flicks on shoestring budgets in the hopes of getting a shot at making a big budget movie. And some indie become blockbusters themselves.Why, indie films have their own film fests and awards ceremonies. Indie music is accepted.<br />
<br />
Independent comic books- Many comic book creators toil at their craft in the hopes of getting some attention from fans and/or major publishers. Some creators leave major publishers to start up their own publishing ventures. Indie comics are accepted.<br />
<br />
Independent artists- Many artists and illustrators are not attached to a single company but depend on freelance work. We are constantly looking for new markets and clients. Many of us go on to work for companies full time and many of us leave companies to freelance. Some of the most influential artists and illustrators were freelancers. Indie artists are accepted.<br />
<br />
Independent authors- Considered by many the bottom of the barrel. The only reason an author self-publishes is because said author sucks and cannot get a "legitimate" contract with a "legitimate" publishing house. An author that has self published is tainted and can no longer be considered a candidate for "actual" publishing through a "real" publisher. Self published authors are dirtying up the waters and must be stopped by any means, preferably through humiliation or bullying. Indie authors are NOT accepted.<br />
