On a flight home from an out-of-state gig, I carried on with me my sketchbook to do a little mindless drawing. For some reason I left my drawing pencils and pens
inside my luggage. Duh! Luckily I found a pen
and also a National Enquirer stuffed inside the seat-netting in front of me. Apparently someone worked a crossword puzzle and blackened the teeth of a smiling celebrity. (OH wait, that was me.) Inside the rag were two fancy faces that stuck out like a sore thumb. Oh joy oh bliss--Geraldo Rivera and Howard Stern.
Entertaining or complaining, both guys at some point ate the foot of a chair during their careers and left us amazed at why the cameras would continue rolling. Sensational Springer-vision! That's why! Our interests and limbic systems forever tainted.
My catharsis, and much needed, developed these hastily drawn caricatures of both media-hookers, with viper-like ties and Medusa-like hairdews. Geraldo sports a small nose bandage, and Stern sports his original nose and chin.
Of course Batman just appeared out of nowhere, cuz, well--HE'S BATMAN.
