Here is a look at the first attempt at making bacon flavored vodka...this is about a week into the process, but it is close to being done now after a three week long infusion...if there is another posting after this at some point then you will know I have survived the experience...
So, to celebrate the making of something to drink, here is a drawing about drinking...
So, I guess to go along with the theme...Here is a track from the Wu-Tang Clan that they did for a St. Ides commercial. There are a whole bunch of these, St. Ides actually had some credible people (i.e. Ice Cube, The Geto Boys, Snoop, King Tee...) make tracks for them back in the day and just had them rhyming about St. Ides 40's. Some of the tracks are kind of hot for being malt liquor commercials. This track is called 'Shaolin Brew,' is only about a minute long and has most of the Wu members name dropping St. Ides at least once...impressive.
Oh, and the name of that track from Miilkbone is 'Keep It Real.'Word 'em up.
So...when I was talking about how I got put on the waiting list and that there were funnier cactus cartoons than mine...It turns out that was all lies. I got into the graduate illustration program at SVA. Bam. Here is a cowboy drawing to celebrate.
This is a track from Miilkbone (the double 'i' is on purpose) it's from '95. Guy got written off as another gimmick white rapper during the 'Ice Ice Baby' era. But, as you can hear, he was definitely nowhere near being a Vanilla Ice copy.

So, here it is the second posting...wow...Another drawing from a few months ago. These are from a portfolio I submitted to the grad program at SVA in New York. I got onto the waiting list this year, so there was something good about them, but just not good enough. I bet someone else had some cactus loving jokes that were slightly funnier, stuff with punchlines like, "I guess I should have realized you were a male sooner from all the tiny pricks." or something with Ziggy hugging the cactus and saying, "Love hurts." All top notch stuff, so I can understand why if someone else had those they would surely let them in first.
Oh yeah, I might try and do some music related stuff on here in the future...
