Cashel and I had a long conversation about his most recent projects, and his upcoming projects. The talk turned to Kung Food Guy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Auntie Sheila,” said Cashel over the phone, “I went to your blog and saw that you put my movie up.”<\/p>\n

Uhm. You “went to my blog”? You read my blog, Cashel? Also, the way he said blog – in this odd accent – “blawg” – kills me.<\/p>\n

“You did? Member you told me it was okay, Cash?”<\/p>\n

hahah I was afraid he would suddenly sue me for copyright violation or something.<\/p>\n

He said, excitedly, “Oh, I know! But Auntie Sheila … who are all those people who made comments??<\/i>”<\/p>\n

I felt like saying “Damned if I know” – hahaha – but I said, “Oh … uhm … they’re my friends, Cash. They all liked your movie.”<\/p>\n

Cashel said, “I know! Last time I checked there was 32 comments!”<\/p>\n

Last time I checked<\/i>? You counted? The image of him coming back to my blog<\/i> to see what other people were saying … hahaha He was truly confused about who all those people were<\/i>.<\/p>\n

But more than that, he said:<\/p>\n

“How did those people know about Stretchy Colorado?”<\/p>\n

Oops<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Uhm, I told them, Cash.”<\/p>\n

Cashel went on. “I was really<\/i> surprised to hear someone talk about the banana sergeant.”<\/p>\n

Oops<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I said, “I’m sorry, Cash – I told them about the banana sergeant too.” Auntie Sheila’s a loudmouth.<\/p>\n

“Oh, I don’t care! I actually think that I WILL make a comic about Stretchy Colorado.” Love it when little kids say “actually”. Cashel says it all the time, and it kills me.<\/p>\n

“Great idea! I love Stretchy. The whole banana sergeant thing was when you were really<\/i> little – you probably don’t even remember it, do you?”<\/p>\n

Cashel did not. I described to him the card. I could hear and feel the silence of his listening emanating thru the wire. It was hilarious. He said something like, “Oh yeah” at the end – in a tone of: “Yes, that sounds like my work.”<\/p>\n

Cashel then took us back to the “blawg” and “all those people”: “You know what, though, Auntie Sheila? I think you have to tell them about Garl.”<\/p>\n

Oops<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I said, “Garl is really cool, Cash.”<\/p>\n

Cash got all excited and said, “And someone in your comments said I should do a sequel to Kung Food Guy???” (Uhm – Mere? That would be you, I believe.) “Well, tell that person that I’m working on it.”<\/p>\n

Mere? He’s working on it.<\/p>\n

He then told me the entire plot. Which, you know, took about 2 seconds. The Kung Food Guy franchise is not known for its intricate plot.<\/p>\n

But it sounds like it’s gonna be a good one!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
