Hi Friend

About Me

I am very small. And ugly. I'm also making a cartoon called "The Misadventures of Flapjack" (Cartoon Network) that's about all my favorite things: filthy sailors, sissies, and ADVENTURE! Its going to be magical.

My Interests

Adventures, Making things, Cartoons, Children's Books, Reading adventure stories, Sailing, Camping, Climbing, rollerskating, surfing, freediving, working on my adventure boats (the Filthy Hobo, and the Tiny Tina) and things like that. I especially enjoy doing them with Sherri and Doodle.

I'd like to meet:

A giant squid who is attacking an old-timey scuba diver. The diver would be very scared. I would be snorkeling, and would have to defeat the squid in one breath. But then after I saved the diver, he would feel like he owes me his life, and I might be able to make friends with the squid ...also, Michael Jackson.

Music:

I ONLY listen to KAREN WINTERS. Its slowly healing my wounds. Also I like the Pogues, Shane McGowan, Daniel Johnston, Woody Guthrie, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Dead Milkmen, Michael Jackson, Ramones, Sex Pistols, Beatles, Johnny Cash, Blondie, Beegees...

Movies:

Amelie, Austin Powers, Popeye, Goonies, Napoleon Dynamite, 20000 Leagues under the sea, Cabin Boy, Rushmore, Wedding Singer, Beat Street, Water Boy, Reform School...

Television:

Little Britain, Malcom in the Middle, Spongebob, the Office. Also I can't get enough of "Flavor of Love" with Flavor-Flav. I get uncomfortable, I get hysterical, and want to throw up every time I watch it, and you can't beat that.

Books:

My sailor buddy Frank gave me a box of books from his wife's great uncle, who was a merchant marine. From the belly of this box, I just finished reading the greatest tale of my young life. "Mad Sea" by Hjalmar Rutzebeck. Its a dream come true for me and you. I also just finished a book called "Shock Value" by John Waters, and it's hilarious. Other favorites : Vagrant Viking, Kon-Tiki, Mole People, Adrift, Aku Aku, heart of the sea, survive the savage sea, every Roald Dahl book, Winnie the Pooh...

Heroes:

Old Timey adventurers like Peter Freuchen and Hjalmar Rutzebeck, Jacques Cousteau, Shane McGowan, and Michael Jackson...

DOODLE SUBS number two

It seems that the first enemy sub was just the messenger...The fleet grows stronger with almost every bath. I think I've created a monster....

DOODLE SUBS

After almost a year and a half taking baths together, Leify Doodle finally pooped in the tub. We were both excited to try out a new little submarine toy, and were winding it up and sending bubbling a...
