Spork Tower I: Stew it begins… John’s Tuscan-ish Chicken and Chard stew posted by JOHN No matter how busy things get, a slow-cooked supper just seems to make life easier. A few weeks ago, things were chaotic: I was behind on deadlines; I needed to rush off to the big-screen showing of Lord of the […]
Muskrat Ramblings A Blast from the Past posted by JOHN As Monica has me getting things ready for Dork Tower’s 15th anniversary year, next year, I’ve been stumbling across a ton of interesting stuff in the archives. One things many folks may not realize is that my first web strips actually went online in late […]
Muskrat Ramblings And now, a note from Monica posted by MONICA Hoi! Monica here. Not John. Monica. Hi. Pleased to meet you! Over the past, few weeks there’s been a lot going on behind-the-scenes at Muskrat Central for one purpose and one purpose only… …to offer you MORE Dork Tower. Occasionally, you’re going to get […]

I was at once gob-smacked and boggled. I […]
Muskrat Ramblings “l hit you on Youface. But you’ve got to promise to fingertag me back”… posted by John My Facebook page, http://www.facebook.com/johnkovalic, recently hit 5,000 “friends.” And as facebook will readilly tell you, you can’t have more than 5,000 friends and be a real person. No, sir – you need to be a corporation, […]
Muskrat Ramblings “REPEATS,” I repeat, are necessary evil. Let me REPEAT that… posted by John Argh! Argh! Nearly two months since I blogged about anything? Bloody hell. OK. Life’s been busy. VERY busy. But I’m working hard to get things back under control. Part of “Getting things back under control” means getting ahead on Dork […]
Muskrat Ramblings You’re a Good God, Charlie Thulhu posted by John I’m NOT QUITE DONE YET…. The technique is a bit rusty, but I’m happy with how it’s looking. BUT…it’s my first new painting in over a year. Almost done. The line quality needs to be bumped up a bit, but overall, I’m happy with […]
