Sketch Day 72 Wee Willie Winkie


'Wee Willie Winkie runs through the town,
Upstairs and downstairs in his nightgown'
Rapping at the window crying through the lock,
Are all the children in their beds? It's past
eight o'clock.

Sketches 70. 71 Jill & Audrey




Jill St.John and Audrey Hepburn.Can you guess who's real last name is Oppenheim? who had a nose job, who dated Henry Kissinger? who has a genius I.Q.? who took ballet lessons with Natalie Wood and Stephanie Powers? Who starred in Jim Bond film 'Diamonds are Forever'? Yeah easy I know...

post: I was so bothered by that Jill ST. John.....it came out looking like Cher's weird sister or something so I had to rework it some....sorry for the obsessive - back to work.

Sketch Day 69 RIP Pete "Big Oak" Heinman


Pete 'the big oak' Heinman passed away quietly at his home in Parma, Ohio yesterday. In the late 50's Pete played for 3 years in the short lived Mansfield Hockey Alliance League. Pete was selected as a starter for the league's only all-star team. Known mostly for his often clumsy and unorthodox skating style and vicious body checks, Pete was a fan favorite wherever he played. "Oh he was a beast on the ice" remembered his coach Cal "Shady" Shade, but once he was on the bus he was a total gentleman."If we didn't keep him pruned every once in a while, he could turn hell on a uniform and pair of skates" Shade remarked. Heinman wore a league record 41 new uniforms in a single season.
Mr. Heinman leaves a wife Maple, and 3 sons and will be planted in Mansfield Memorial Park

A definite first team all-hair babe. Raquel was the main attraction in 'One Million Years B.C.' and is a personal favorite in 'Fathom'. I've said enough...

Sketch Day 65 Stella Stevens


This less than polished sketch is here mainly because I just caught the tail end of a bad Jerry Lewis movie and it reminded me of Stella Stevens in the original Nutty Professor- definitely first team all hair-do. Pretty straight forward but hey, AMC is showing the Brain that Wouldn't Die in about 2 minutes so time to go!
