SOME INTERESTING PICTURES

A few days ago John K took this picture of me, Jack Black and Kyle Gass (Jack & Kyle =Tenacious D.). It's a terrific picture and I'm really glad to have it but I'll never be able to look at it without wincing. I was supposed to reciprocate by taking John's picture with Jack and Kyle and I goofed it. We didn't find out till it was too late to take another one. Sorrrryyyyyyy!

Jack turned out to be a real nice guy and his vocal range is amazing. He has a trained voice. He can speak in what comes off as a natural, conversational manner, and still be heard clearly in the back of the balcony. Every actor should be able to do that.



Here's a caricature John did of of me (above) covered with warts, with dog legs, sitting in a puddle of my own urine. I wonder what Sister Wendy would think of it?

Here's another picture of me (above), also by John. This was the head I used when I put together the yellow composite of John's Eddie pictures that I posted a few weeks ago.

Hey, put more of your Worm drawings up, I love those. By the way, who did the voice of Johnny? I didn't mind the voice, but I didn't think it worked very well during the Apologizing scene, which sounded like he was overacting. I loved the voice of Sally though.

I'm sure you don't actually sit in your own urine!

You fit in with them kids- you should join 'em and play the rubber band on your hand!

I love Tenacious D. Jack Black is a living cartoon character!

Jack Black can belt out his voice real loud because he has a strong diaphragm. By that I mean the muscle underlining the bottom of his rib cage, not the prophylactic device. :P

I read that Mel Blanc's vocal chords were iron solid. If he voiced Yosemite Sam and Foghorn Leghorn, hemust have had an amazing diaphragm as well.

Hi Uncle Eddie,

I think that once Sister Wendy laid her eyes on that sketch, she'd probably give up her vows and look for you in California! :D Actually, I really enjoyed her program - she really had an interesting perspective on art.

Uncle Eddie! You goofed the picture!

Are you and John working with Tenacious D on something?

And I just read that a George Liquor show might get sponsored, Will you be working on those?

Sister Wendy would dig that drawing because nuns are so into urine.

Mel Blanc said his sole throat X-ray revealed a cast iron throat muscularity allegedly only known to have previously occured in Enrico Caruso! This may have been mere self-promotion, but Mel swore that his doctor told him that. How his doctor examined the long-dead Caruso's interior throat sinew remains a mystery, but, considering Mel Blanc's incredible range and vocal feats over the ages, it just might be true. Mel was one of a kind. Not even Noel Blanc genetically got all of his dad's amazing gifts.

Cool, did you guys do another video for them? I forgot Spumco did a Tenacious D video. Did you animate that video?

Hey Folks

Did any of you guys see the caricature drawing of Jack Black that John K did on his blog? It's pretty cool looking.

Ryan G. said...

Anonymous 2: Iron vocal chords!? Amazing!

Jennifer: Of course Sister Wendy would lust after me! We're the same species! We both have a great set of buck teeth! BTW, what is "Muilina?" (spelled right?)

Cableclair: Hot!?.....(Blush!)(Blush again!)

Gavin: I can't talk about it right now!

Ryan: I'd love to see you guys do caricatures of John! I'll see if I can rustle up some reference.
