Last Thursday I met up with a few creative people in Edison, NJ at Picnic Garden Korean BBQ. It’s across the street from Sam Ash. Amazing food and it’s done buffet style. Go up to the bar, pick out your own food by hand, and bring it back to the table to cook it. DELICIOUS! [...]

I’ve been listening to Queen a lot lately in my car and the Flash Gordon theme keeps reminding me how awesome Queen is and how awesome the Flash Gordon movie is. Since I’ve been drawing a lot lately, I decided to do a sketch of the all-American space hero. This drawing was done using colored [...]

  This weekend I finally decided it was time to draw again. It’s been a really, really long time. My closet is full of art supplies I haven’t used since college! So I packed up my colored pencils and my sketchbook and made it a goal to draw something that day. My only restriction was [...]

DO NOT READ ANY FURTHER UNLESS YOU ARE TOTALLY CAUGHT UP WATCHING “DEXTER”! I have been waiting all season long for Peter Weller to finally meet his maker on “Dexter”. This guy has been a pain in the ass for several of the main characters. However, I do not think I am going to get [...]

GIZMODO, a very popular technology news site,  is running a contest where they asked viewers to submit theme song ideas. They will select three finalists and then other viewers will vote for a grand prize winner. There are some pretty sweet prizes up for grabs. I shure wouldn’t mind some new equipment. Since Gizmodo is [...]

This update features something that inspires me. Music! I cannot properly work on photography or design without music. For the lovely Lindsay’s birthday, I wanted to play a couple songs from the 1980s with our friends in Beer Goggles. Boogs and I love music from the 1980s and she’s never seen me play with a [...]


Liccardi and Brad Benson Car Dealerships Are Run By Criminals

(First of all, hit “Recommend” on this page. You already know car dealerships are run by criminals.) I bought my first new car in the summer of 2002. It was a black 2001 Chrysler Sebring LXi. Remember the color. Black. I was so damn happy to finally have a car with a warranty and that [...]

Segway Safety Tip

Man on Segway near cliff

People die every day. Sometimes it’s by choice. Sometimes it’s because they’ve done something incredibly stupid. Today I heard that the owner of Segway perished off of a cliff. On his own product. Do people really need to be told not to ride a glorified Pogo Stick near the edge of a cliff? If you [...]

Boycott BP

Make them pay dearly. It is unacceptable for a company to devastate the earth simply for profit. I don’t want to hear about charities or anything “positive” this company does. It’s all PR bullshit and they must pay the price. Join the Boycott BP page on facebook. Thousands have joined already.

This font must perish. I encourage you as a designer or customer to avoid using this font. It reflects poorly on your objectives unless it is to suck at whatever it is that you do.

The Neighborhood of Make Believe. I did this drawing when I was a toddler with crayons. Because every little kid needs a map of the Neighborhood of Make Believe, right? Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood was one of the greatest tv shows ever.

Batman from the Silver Age era of DC Comics. I’ve intentionally left Robin out of this drawing.

Green Lantern and his biggest fan, James Hannon, together at last. Perhaps Hal Jordan wouldn’t mind lending James the ring so the Mets win a game or two.
