Competitions, comics, conspiracies, and collections

Well, the 2011 Muppet Madness Tournament hosted by MuppetFans.com finished up earlier this week, and the cute and lovable Super Grover just barely beat the geriatric duo— Statler and Waldorf. Being the creative director for MuppetFans and the fanboy that I am, I drew a few pictures of the fuzzy and blue super monster as well as the balcony boys. The final match–up between the three was so close that I created winners graphics for both sides! A special thank you goes out to The MuppetCast, The Muppet Mindset, and ToughPigs for all their hard work for this year's competition.

On a lazier note, my new weekly comic series, "Lazy Comics" has been entertaining close to no one! Most of the comics are drawn well, some are even funny, all of them are exclusively on Facebook! In fact, you can read all of the current Lazy Comic strips and see the custom Muppet Madness Tournament artwork by going to Facebook and becoming a fan of davehulteendesign. It's so easy, it's practically a crime.




Speaking of crime, Governor Jesse Ventura has written a new book exposing the crimes of American government in his latest book, "63 Documents The Government Doesn't Want You To Read". I not only picked up my copy, but had the chance to meet and talk with the governor in person at a recent book signing. Like all celebrities, Mr. Ventura was very nice, and very chatty, taking his time to talk to everyone who came out to meet him… everyone. I never really watched Jesse "The Body" Ventura on wrestling as a kid, but I became a big fan after hearing him as a semi–regular guest on The Howard Stern Show. He's a colorful guy who I think is very smart and has some fascinating ideas. Whether you think he's looney or not, listening to him speak, I always think, "Man, that's so crazy it just might be true!" Check out Jesse "The Mind" Ventura's book at your local book dealer today.

And finally, what's next in store for your old buddy, Dave? Well, it's top secret and the government doesn't want you to know… however, they're shutting down later today, so I'll tell you anyway. For a few months now I have been working on a new video to show off my monster mass of Muppet memorabilia I've managed to accumulate. I'm excited to show off what kind of fanboy I really am, and within the next month or so, you'll be able to watch in wonder and amazement at all the stuff my lovely wife allows me to display in our home on the sensational Muppet Mindset!

So stay tuned, and as always, swing on by davehulteendesign and make sure you become a fan on Facebook!
