Thank you for your continued interest in Palehose Six. Believe me, I know that it is just about time to turn the page, but stay tuned through the end of the season. I have something for you that will leave you looking forward to next year. Hope will be restored.

Burning Down Something Beautiful

2006-09-23T01:29:00.000-05:00

This might be the saddest thing I've ever drawn. When I started this comic strip in February, I envisioned the Palehose Six sailing into the Post Seas through a canyon raining confetti. That is not our fate.

Keeping our Distance

2006-09-21T21:07:00.000-05:00

Yes. This was necessary.

New Palehose Six visitors may need to scroll down to the April 11th strip to understand the Tiger + Lion = Liger concept.

Captain Hand has a MySpace page. He rejected my friend request. What's up with that? He must not like my comic strip.

Roller Floater

2006-09-02T09:23:00.000-05:00

This is the strip that appears in the Sunday edition of the Daily Southtown Sports section. It is on newsstands this morning.

I have to submit the strip that I draw for the Sunday paper on Thursday night, so I had this one done before Jose's start on Friday. I think the three errors had more to do with last night's loss than Jose did. Nevertheless, the roller coaster ride continues.

Hopefully this comic strip lightens the mood.

Here's a reminder: Palehose Six appears every weekend in the Sunday Edition of the Daily Southtown sports section. Pick up a copy on the Southside. You can hang the comic strip on your fridge. Just like Gramma used to do!

Ozzie has to show a longer commitment to shaving before I start drawing him without the goatee. I drew it once in my sketchbook, but it just looked wrong. It looked like Yosemite Sam without his mustache or Frank Thomas in an A's uniform.

Is it Given?

2006-08-20T08:16:00.000-05:00

Let's hope the Palehose Six are able to put up a fight against Santana today.

Radio Interview and Crew Shirt

2006-08-18T13:53:00.000-05:00

I am going to be interviewed by Chris Rongey on the White Sox Weekly radio show on Saturday 8/19. The show is on 670 am, The Score, from 10am to noon. I will most likely be interviewed during the 10 o'clock hour. If you are outside of the Chicagoland area, you can listen to the Score live over the internet. Tune in!

Also, by request, new Palehose Six T-Shirts featuring the Palehose Six crew are available at CafePress.

It's simple. Ask El Farmio.

I have to work on my artistic hobbies at night, so I have probably listened to more Farmio, Rooney, and Singleton over the last few years than I have listened to Hawk. Farmio had to make an appearance.

Gload Saves

2006-08-01T22:49:00.000-05:00

I starting inking this strip before Thornton entered tonight's game. By the time I got to the third panel, he blew the save and I had to change plans. I really wanted to stay positive and celebrate Gload, Buehrle, and Thornton. Oh well. Thornton's out of control arm is funnier anyway. And Gload came through with a big RBI in the 10th. It all works out in the end.

Go Sox! Sweep! Sweep! Sweep!

Don't worry. Everything's cool. If the playoffs started today, the Sox would be in.

Just thought I'd say it one more time while I could.

The Palehose Six Store is now open!

I simply posted some designs at cafepress.com. It's very basic because I want to stay focused on writing and drawing comic strips. I think you will be happy with the options that are out there.

Thanks in advance to anyone who buys a shirt. I hope to see one at a game.

Do they really have a TV on the Palehose Six? Yes. Does that make sense? Yes. Why does it make sense? Because none of it does.

The Ballplayer

2006-06-27T21:36:00.000-05:00

"What are you going to name the Pirates?" has been one of the most popular questions since Palehose Six started. Other popular questions are: "When is Bartman going to make an appearance?" and "Where is the Jolly Bossard T-Shirt?"

2006-06-24T14:17:00.000-05:00

I took my son to his first game on Thursday night. Captain hand was in exile, but we still saw a great game.

This is Little Man watching the Big Man, Jim Thome, warm up in the outfield. I'd like to send a special thanks to the security guard who handed my son the ball that Anthony Reyes warmed up with in right field. And thanks for scoring the tickets, Uncle Russ. And thanks to Jim Thome, Freddy Garcia, and Bobby Jenks for making it a perfect night.

Thank you for your continued interest in Palehose Six. I think this is the kind of dumb joke that would typically get e-mailed to me from my friends and co-workers. I definitely encourage that kind of activity.

Buehrle was the first pitcher in over 100 years to give up 7 runs in a first inning and finish the game with a win. The Sox also turned a tripple play and players were using pink bats.

I enjoy watching The Palehose Six beat up on The Los Diablos Devils of Anaheim. The Los Diablos Devils of Anaheim really really want to get revenge. It's cute.

Now it's time to watch Conan tell a bunch of jokes with a Chicago flavor.
