Birdbrains by Thom Bluemel for August 03, 2010

Faces everywhere!

Good Morning Thom and all!

He’ll never figure it out, and he’ll keep calling you over for tech support.

I always wished I had one of those high-tech knife sharpeners!

It probably works better than mine!

And once again, Chief Thom Thom draws the plumb-ugliest cavemen I’ve seen since Chief Basil Wolverton.

And it’s so easy… even a Caveman can do it!

At first glance, I counted six faces but I didn’t looks at the hair and beards.

Am I a caveman? I use an oil-stone (found on the La shore). My Dad used a steel but I was intimidated by its size and shape.

Only if your knife is also stone, Lew.

Takes me the face in daddy’s gray beard to get to 6. Of course I’m looking at this on no coffee at all. Gotta go get some.

I can never find more than half the faces everyone else says they get - unless you’re counting the real faces on the characters, too. Sigh. And that’s ON coffee.

Ah back to normal nuttiness!

Wow, what progress. They may soon invent the wheel.

I quickly counted 4 … will check at 5pm when I wake up!

It makes a dad proud when his son shows true grit….

Good morning, Tribe. I counted 6 also.

Thom, you’re too funny. Those caveman bellies are the UGLIEST, with a capital UGH!!!

Thanks for keeping us laughing!

I love it when I receive gifts that are on the cutting edge.

Prelude to infomercials?

Yes, Thom has honed his caveman drawing skills well!

Fellow Birdbrains, you do realize our Supreme Leader draws his cavemen based on what he sees in the mirror? Perhaps we should be a little nicer.

Good Morning Supreme Leader of the Birdbrains

Ummm….. I can’t mention what I can see. This is a public forum.

I like Thom’s cavemen.

There’s a knap for that.

I ‘m gone for a couple of days and see what I miss.

Lew - you’re gonna have to start sharing those meds this way.

In art class last night the instructor showed a painting from the 1800’s that was nothing more than paint splattered across the canvas. I quit counting when I got to 23 faces.

What have you people done to me!!!

I’d like to have one of those pencil sharpeners along with the cheerful face above it…if they can chisel the face out of the wall. Add it to one of my rock collections/arrangements.

Ooh! Ooh! Ooh! (caveman talk).I forgot to tell my new way to make coffee at 2 AM. This morning I poured the cold water directly in the fresh grounds. As mentioned in BT, it tasted like Aunt Tillie’s who used one tsp per guest at the table.I highly recommend DOC’S.

LUVH8 I didn’t see that at 2 AM, but I was suffering from coffee deprivation. What are you talking about? Snicker

Thanks, Ladyhawk

Thank you Ladyhawk

Okay PEOPLE,

One more time. Sir Lew takes these medications and uses these psychiatrists. You have seen the results. Do you really want to take the same medications and talk to the same people?

i see one hidden face, but w’s aplenty - i’m lost

minky moo, LuvH8, So you mean phallactites. And we won’t mention phallacmites and how you tell the difference.

Aren’t phallicmites formed from dripping phallictites? I don’t see any phallicmites. Too bad, that would have been interesting.

A couple of years back, my son got me one of these and it it worked really well, but it stopped working a week after the warranty expired. Planned obsolescence, I guess, just like everywhere in the high tech world…
