About Brainwaves
Dip your toes into BRAINWAVES and let Betsy Streeter’s stream-of-consciousness cartoon panel wash away your anxieties with its cool, clear insights and unabashed enjoyment of our irony-enhanced world. Streeter savors the absurd differences between what we do and what we think we do, and daily notes the deliciously strange juxtapositions that save our sanity. Whether her bemused humans find themselves in the clothing store, the cubicle, the doctor’s office or the traffic jam, there’s always an epiphany at hand. A veteran cartoonist whose drawings have appeared in Funny Times, "The New Breed", and numerous magazines, newsletters and textbooks, Streeter describes her work as being about "working, driving, hunting and gathering, impressing our friends, and the like." "As long as there’s laughter somewhere," she notes, "we’re all going to make it."

hmm, beatnik….good pun…..
but….perhaps shabbier clothes, goatee, a beret … you know, the maynard G. Krebbs look….
.you’re taking a chance aren’t you, Betsy….how many younger people even know who or what a beatnik was…..
in fact, werent beatniks pretty much gone by the time the hippie movement came to be?
interesting that the ‘coffee houses’ that beatniks used to hang out at are the rage these days…..
a beatnik in a starbucks would be a happy critter!
just some random, unsolicited thoughts

I have to admit this one happened after I had been to City Lights Books in SF - maybe it will inspire someone to look up Beatniks on Wikipedia, another weird concept.
