I just can't do it!

This posting thing is kickin' my a$$. I wanted to post an image and then start my text below the image, but the cursor won't allow me to move it from the top of the page next to the top of the image to a postion right below the image. Of course I'm a computer nit and I know my way around a keyboard about as well as Lady Gaga knows her way around the Brooks Brothers women's department. So I'm gonna insert the image and we'll see what develops. Here goes... DAGNABBIT!!. See? Sumbitch! Oh well, on with my post.

I always wished I could draw when I was growin' up. Still do. Unfortunately, my attempts are only worthy of an Abstract Art exhibit in a third world country. For instance, take a look at Bugs. Now, I'm sure some of y'all can look at the picture and draw freehand a very close copy to the original. However, when I try to draw, my rabbit looks more like the unfortunate victim of a run in with an 18-wheeler. Blood and guts with long ears and whiskers. What a crock! I'm 54 years old and I can't even draw a straight line or a circle, much less a cartoon. I went to grade school with a guy named Tim Rafferty. He was amazing. He could draw anything. All of the dimensions were perfect. He didn't even need a picture to help him. He even drew anatomical parts. Wow! How the hell did he know what THAT looked like? Sure enough, when I finally saw ONE, it was just like Tim's drawing back in grade school, except in living color. Oh yeah, where was I? So, since I have no artistic talent, I began to wonder where my daughter, Cara, picked up her skills. Probably from my wife. She could at least draw a grid on some plywood and come up with Bert and Ernie Christmas yard decorations. Not me. I can't even draw with the help of a grid or even a sheet of onion paper. Funny, that paper don't smell anything like an onion to me. Anyway, I remain envious of people who have the talent to draw anything they want. And what about tattoo artists? I've seen people with tattoos that Michaelangelo couldn't paint and they're in places I think even Tim Rafferty didn't know about way back when. Who knew that ink and needles would turn into a cable TV show. And you can't hardly find a basketball player who doesn't look like a bad LSD trip at a marijuana convention. I can't imagine any of them having a soap sponsor.Coppertone and Banana Boat won't be interested either.
Well, back to the drawing board, so to speak. Have a great weekend!
