Never bounce a check to a musician… they don’t like it very much. So, Jeff’s been taking lessons from Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top? Yes, when you have rich parents, just about anything can happen. But we’re about to see why Jeff must get a job. He’s been a happy landlord all this time as you know. Excitement builds.
Moral: Before you bad-mouth someone, look behind you… oh, yeah, they’re there.
Three comics this week. But I have a plan to increase the output. More on that later. I have one or two things to firm up.
Note there’s another Desktop to download over there -> in the Calendar. Look for the “S – M – L” letters and click on the size you want. S = 1440×900, M = 1680×1050, and L = 1920×1200. If want other sizes, email me. And there’s a new Lorraine’s Polaroids over there on the left <-.
Mother Nature turned the damn heat off and Chicagoland has gone from the wonderful 70s to the chilly 50s. Jeez, can’t we get one month where ALL our utilities are low? Damn weather.
So, in honor of Billy Gibbons in his 1977 splendor making an appearance today, a little more ZZ Top for you. Actually, as the story goes, ZZ Top took a break in 1977. When they got back together two years later, it was then that Gibbons and Hill realized they had grown out their beards in tandem without knowing it. The rest is history.

I always preferred them before the beards 😛
Could Jeff be a superstar in the making?
I’ve been pretty lucky (touches wood) throughout my life. Whenever I’ve rubbished someone, they either aren’t there or I’ve said my bit while looking them straight through the eye. At least that way, if they feel like taking a swing at me, I’ve been looking right at them & don’t blind-sided.
Just because Jeff takes lessons from an accomplished master don’t mean he practices & plays like the master. I guess we’ll see. So far we’ve seen all the comedic Plan 9 disasters (I still chuckle over the Back in the U.S.S.R. gag from their Latvia trip). Not so much their successes …
Hey, By The Way – nice new wallpaper you put up! I keep forgetting to check that box over the calendar … it’s real easy to tune it out over the background noise due to size & location. Every time I do notice a new wallpaper, I always get concerned that I’ve drifted off and missed a couple of good ones.
This one’s got a great, classic shirt on Bud that looks fantastic. Sweet sweet fan service of Lorraine, something for the ladies with Jeff almost wearing a shirt and Robyn .. ?? Robyn!! 🙁 *weeps*
Well. Better luck next time. I did just get an entire week featuring her topless for the most part …
Another vote for the new wallpaper here! And do y9u realise that there are things that simply might *have* to happen with Plan 9? I mean, a body like Lorraine’s will!get!noticed! (I have a few thoughts, but we can discuss them…elsewhere…). Also, I can see the band becoming very famous in their own area at the least – even if it’s just as a one hit wonder in the American Midwest. After all, the American midwest is big enough to assure a band fame and ~cough Bob Seger cough~ fortune without even going further afield…
How come no one remembers the third guy in the band? He should have grown his beard out too.
He didn’t need to grow one, he’s already the third Beard in the band, Frank’ly I am amused that you’d forgotten. ;D
Now THERE’S a punch! Nice one.
*laughs* The guy in the Black Sabbath shirt (circa 1977, when Sabbath had run aground) thinks that ZZ Top’s ship had sailed? Ha! Thankfully, both bands had a bit more juice left in ’em after 1977. Isn’t it funny, in hindsight, how much things deviate over time from where you think they are in the moment?
Hey I enjoyed your web comic. I wrote review of it on my blog. I’m hard but fair but you did pretty good, Congrats! http://rainofgods.blogspot.com/
I did enjoy your web comic I did a web comic review of it on my blog. I hard but I’m fair. You did good though, congrats!
I got a kick outta this one, Byron. It incorporated nearly everything that’s great about this series: humor, drinking, music, and fightin’. I imagined the T&A, so I’m in a good place right now. 😀
