Four more years of good cheer...

For the past twenty-five some odd years (& some have been very odd indeed!), I have created holiday cards for friends & family to celebrate the season. Although I waiver between atheism & agnosticism, my belief in this most wonderful time of the year & the spirit of giving & sharing therein has never been stronger.
My holiday scribblings started with a skankin' Santa, rockin' to the holiday groove (replete with "Fishbone" tattoo), & have continued unabated up until this year's oh-so-topical (albeit a lil' late) snapshot of Mr. Claus doing his civic duty in the voting booth.
Please feel free to save, send, print, & otherwise share in any way you'd like in the spirit of the season as it were...
Santa said knock you out
Previous cards have ranged from personal to political to downright ridiculous (I will spare you "Zombie Claus"!), & after the jump, I will share with you some of my favorites (complete with whatever necessary context) starting with last year's ink-stained holiday greeting.

Some days are better than others...

We started a Gay Straight Alliance @ the school where I teach (& also where I went as a student as well!), one of the few GSA's at a middle school, & we were just recognized by GLSEN for doing so.
I look goofy when I'm proud.
I'm very proud of the brave kids who are involved & so thrilled to work in a school that supports them in this extraordinary venture.
Check 'em out here~

Now I’d like to ask a favor of you, my dear readers.
I’d like to make this a bigger art project & I need your participation, both for me & our President.
If you would please consider printing this piece  & sticking it somewhere in your town or nearby cool place, snapping a pic then emailing me a copy, that would be utterly delightful. I’d like to post 'em up here.
I, of course, will link to your blog, website or other stuff when I do should you so desire.
Everywhere from Chicago to Cali to Provincetown to DC to Mexico to Japan & all points inbetween, you know who you are & where you are.
Email it to friends around the globe & ask them the same.
I’d love to make this a worldwide jam!
Go forth & spread the gospel~ 
Put it on every street corner & lamp-post, every bulletin board & kiosk, every juke-joint & house of ill-repute, every cafe, campus & construction site, every church, synagogue, mosque, & Bahá’í Center, every library & schoolyard, every domino table & methadone clinic, every nook & cranny you can find…
or  just stick it in your office. 
But take a pic & send it to me!
Remember there's no knockout in this bout, it goes the full 12 rounds. The judges' decision is final on 6 November, so get out & vote, my friends.

"Obama Said Knock You Out" in the wild pt. 39 (Philly 2: Electric Boogaloo)


The first two pieces in this bunch are some of my favorites. I met this gentleman as I plasterin' the town & we had a delightful repartee. He was reluctant to let me use the box as he claimed ownership of the space, but quickly relented when I offered to rent it. He did offer though that Obama was "going down". A good time was had by all. 
When I returned home, I found that an excellent photographer who goes by the handle Digital Witness had captured the moment perfectly. 
A wonderful surprise indeed! Da' Mayor of South St. approvesRentin' box space on South St.
