What is it about penguins that cause me to chortle?
You're killin me.

Jennifer- My 11 year old niece is actually frightened of penguins. She says they walk funny. (That's probably why the rest of think they're hilarious.

Claudio- Will do.

Stephen- Thanks :)

jennifer said...

She isn't afraid of clowns is she? Lots of people are. A clown penguin would be her worst nightmare.

By the way, you flatter me. I'm blushing (from the comment you put one my blog).

Meridth McKean Gimbel said...

Hehehehehe!!!! Now that is funny!! I'm sure that would be her biggest nightmare.

p.s. You really are that amazing.

I just started a cartoon drawing unit with my weekly art students. I'm not any kind of expert, but have several books and DVD's that help me out! They love it and maybe one day, one of them will be inspired to follow the path you have chosen.

Meridth McKean Gimbel said...

Thanks Lil' Kim! Happy '09 to you too!!

...and Jackie... that is marvelous. Hooray for cartoons. I appreciate the kind comment :)
