Cool pic, Warren!

Hey Todd-
That phone call thing is just too funny.

LOL - that call was too funny - I'm not sure if I was laughing more at what the speaker was describing or the sound of him laughing.. Thanks for sharing!

Listening to it, I couldn't help but picture the little old ladies from "The Producers."

Thanks Todd.

Thanks for posting my drawing, Todd. I'm glad you liked it. I enjoy drawing your characters alot, even if I'm not that good, and am not at all consistent in how I portray them (of course, I have no "style" I draw in either...). And glad you enjoyed the Roswell Conspiracies dvds. I agree with about every point you made about the show. It could have been better, but it could have been much, much worse. Mostly, I wanted you to see them just because of the subject matter. :)
