Hola Night Owls & Early Birds Not much to say except — Have a great weekend! Until mañana . . . Enjoy! Ian S Florida! http://www.OurAbsurdLife.com P.S. “No rulers were harmed during the making of this cartoon.” “Let’s still be careful out there.”

Hola Night Owls & Early Birds Hopefully I’m back on track and all systems go! When I first thought about doing spider cartoons back in 2020, I had quickly jotted down a page of ideas.   Tonight’s cartoon came from that initial batch. Have a great night. Until mañana . . . Enjoy! Ian SContinue reading “Our Absurd Life: 04/21/22 – Coffee, Please! And Keep the Change”

Hola Everybody Due to Internet difficulties — flies in the ointment, ghosts in the machine, gremlins in the mix — last night I was unable to send out yesterday’s cartoon.  There was also a frog stuck to the wall, but that’s a story for another day. Here it is. Have a great day everyone! UntilContinue reading “Our Absurd Life: 04/20/22 – Happy to Help!”

Hola Night Owls & Early Birds When Lee — Webmaster Guru Extraordinaire — originally built this awesome Our Absurd Life website, he asked me to come up with titles for all the cartoons.  If I remember correctly, I had to go back and come up with titles for about 50 cartoons.  And then, of course,Continue reading “Our Absurd Life: 04/19/22 – Job Security”

Hola Night Owls & Early Birds Just in case you’ve received this cartoon twice tonight, I apologize.  The first one I emailed apparently vanished. Strange indeed. Have a great night.

Hola Night Owls & Early Birds I hope everyone had a great weekend. Our favorite spiders may not know anything about Easter–but they know a good thing when they crawl upon it. Had fun today coloring eggs with my mom and sister while my dad prepared an awesome dinner of arroz con pollo. Thanks all!Continue reading “Our Absurd Life: 04/17/22 – Operation: Egg Roll”

Hola Night Owls and Early Birds Tonight’s Essential Cartoon is dedicated to Denise, a friend from back home in California.  She’s been in the tax business for years.   I hope you’re surviving the season, Denise, with plans to get back to your own creative hobby once you get a “tax” break.  This cartoon’s forContinue reading “Our Absurd Life: 04/16/22 – Fudging The Numbers”

Hola Night Owls & Early Birds No worries, Linda, only 33.333% of my immediate household understood yesterday’s cartoon.   My mom thought they were a swarm of bees or, believe it or not, baby owls.  My sister thought they were maybe Melvin’s kids–baby spiders–come back home.  Only my dad knew they were flies, and thatContinue reading “Our Absurd Life: 04/15/22 – Tax Shelter”

Hola Night Owls & Early Birds I hope everyone had a great day.   Until mañana . . . Enjoy! Ian S Florida! (And giant palmettos, Nancy, otherwise known as the “Florida woods cockroach.” Yeesh!) http://www.OurAbsurdLife.com P.S. “No rulers were harmed during the making of this cartoon.” “Let’s still be careful out there.”

Hola Night Owls & Early Birds I hope everyone had a great day! Tonight’s cartoon took some time to come together.   It started when I came up with a funny (at least I thought it was funny) name for a diet soda: “Spectacular Nothing.”  But upon conducting some online research I discovered this nameContinue reading “Our Absurd Life: 04/13/22 – Flabber-GAS-t’d”
