A visit to Anchorage's annual Festival of Car Crashes (FOCC). The festival motorcycle travel bags is traditionally held the first day that there is more than a dusting of snow. It's like Pamplona's Running of the Bulls except you are in your car and the object is to avoid all the other cars. This is no easy feat given treacherous road conditions motorcycle travel bags and "Auto Alzheimer's" motorcycle travel bags the yearly loss of memory of how to drive in winter that afflicts most of the town. The weak and cowardly stay home and the truly macho strut their stuff in the legendary places of traffic mayhem, like the intersection of Tudor and Lake Otis. The annual festival motorcycle travel bags is a boon to both body shops and hotels as tourists flood the town from around the world, many getting caught up in the action in their rental motorcycle travel bags cars. That's the spirit, everyone's welcome! You must be 16 or older and hold a valid diver's license to participate, but anyone can watch.
Hello from Alaska cartoonist Peter Dunlap-Shohl. Here you'll find animations, political cartoons, songs, short comic pieces, and other products of my fevered imagination just as fast as I can create them and put them up.
As cartoonist for the Anchorage Daily News, I amused, annoyed and had fun at the expense of my fellow Alaskans for over a quarter of a century. I plan to continue that here. There is a big ol' archive of my daily News cartoons here and animations about Alaska politicians, here .
Here are four cartoonists who consistently do high quality work. As I type this, more names crowd forward in my brain, but let's start here. Richard Thompson is not only the man behind the popular motorcycle travel bags Cul de Sac strip, motorcycle travel bags he is also a fine illustrator whose work appears in The New Yorker, Mother Jones and many other top-flight illustration venues. His carefree line is envied far and wide by cartoonists who forgive him for being so gifted because his drawings are impossible not to love. There is no mistaking the work of Clay Bennett. His cartoons are marked with an elegant blend of clarity, simplicity and sophistication that he has sustained for decades. Clay is one of the most passionate cartoonists I've met. And how about that Signe Wilkinson? Nobody combines combines ingenuity with bite like Signe, but I wish more people would try. Then there's Flashmaster Mark Fiore, whose record as an innovator and commentator is singular and inspiring. And for you caricature fans out there, check out the dynamite Sal Navarro .
