Last year I was thinking about trying to create when you’re too sick to focus even when you have a good idea. This year…was worse for me than last year, as most of you know. But did you know that during the first hiatus it wasn’t just the pain keeping me from even doodling?

My dad has been listening through some of his old CDs. It’s not easy finding older music on the radio. Our biggest oldies station recently decided to go all classic rock. One he’s been playing a lot is a best of Neil Diamond compilation, which includes the song “Cracklin’ Rosie”. One line in the song talks about a “store-bought woman” and I was wondering what the heck that meant. So I went to the internet for answers…and I’m not sure I got it.
I typed “store bought woman” into Google and the website Songfacts came up. I went to a similar site when I looked at Duran Duran’s “The Reflex”, a gibberish song that it turned out was about nothing since it was written while the band members were drunk off their backsides, and for some reason decided to record it anyway. Granted, it worked for them and it was a hit for them, but that’s some odd reasoning. “This song makes no sense and we aren’t a novelty band. Let’s release it anyway.” How long were they drunk? Actually, this fits better than you think since wine is the biggest translation of the line, but not the only one…because people like their naughty thoughts. Wait until this series gets to “Pass The Duche”.
That’s NOT how the Heimlich Maneuver works!

Here we are again, ladies and gentlemen. Jerzy and Rob of Lean Into Art is challenging comic creators to discuss their comic creating thoughts, and the one who is also a media critic is allowed, even though he’s doing a v-log instead of a straight audio post. That critic/creator is of course me. In my introductory posting to the 2016 challenge I discuss the benefits of all of these challenges like Inktober, 24-Hour Comic, National Novel Writer’s Month, and others, including this one.
I’ll be doing this every Monday thru Friday until the end of November. Morning Article Links return in December, except for links I really want you to see now. Like tonight, but I’ll try to make an article out of it.
