Geez, I've been going back looking for pictures and drawings for Stark Raving Dad.  And I keep finding things, I really should have shared.  This is one of them.  My boys were so into Star Wars for a time.  And I LOVED IT!  There were also into wearing their underwear on the outside of their PJ's and tucking useful items into them - like light sabres, and screwdrivers, and tape measures.  I LOVED THAT TOO!  This video makes my sad, and proud, and laugh all at the same time. [video width="720" height="1280" m4v="https://starkravingdad.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/IMG_0537.m4v"][/video] I miss my Star Wars-loving, outside-underwear-clad superheroes!  This is actually a few years old, I wished i would have posted it then.  But obviously it got lost in the haze of sleeplessness and daily survival chaos...

Well, as the kids got older - a lot of the art started adding militaristic items.  Like this duck - wearing an army helmet and seemingly shooting high-caliber machine-gun fire out of his bill!  I actually love this stuff.  It makes me laugh, seeing what seemingly innocuous creatures/items the boys turn into dangerous weapons of mass destruction.  Of course, none of these pics made it into the book.  I've just delivered the last of my kids' art to Running Press.  And MOST of it - is much more innocent...

Maybe I should be writing a book called "Crap That Makes Dad Mad"!  These chicken nuggets were left in the back seat during a recent heat wave.  I found them when I climbed back in the car in the morning. (yes, it smelled like the back kitchen of a KFC!)  Seriously!!?  I was so mad I actually took a picture.  Then, I haven't had time - so its taken me weeks to post.  But now that i'm posting it - I'm still mad!  Maybe the book should be called "Where My Garbage Cans at?!  Holla!" Seriously, this isn't the first time.  It just backs up a theme you may have noticed...
