Where’s Arthur… a geographical mystery game… in which you try to figure out where I have been, using subtle hints hidden within photos I took while I was there… part 3…

So this first mystery place I visited had a creepy old castle. Think more Transylvania than Disneyland. But there were cool birds there.

You can tell bad stuff happened to people here.

Can someone please explain to me the purpose behind the republican plan to make American children as dumb as possible???

Why are you purposefully trying to dumb the next generation down? They are your own children. All the focus seems to be on sending them to a church where they are told what to think, and not to ask questions. Schools should only teach hand-picked facts that don’t make them feel bad. Critical thinking and asking questions are how we advance as a species.

If you want dumb kids, don’t expect America to do it for you. Homeschool your kids. Then you can teach them to not think about anything at all. Perfect little robots with no internal AI. What could go wrong? And go ahead and teach them your own idea of whatever your religion is. Teach them that hatred and bigotry and racism and misogyny and random acts of cruelty are the messages that your god requires you to obey in order not to burn forever in hellfire.

But just so you know, this whole new way of raising kids is a SCIENCE experiment, and you don’t believe in science… probably because your own parents weren’t big on this whole ‘learning how to think’ thing.

We stayed in a very nice neighborhood. Mayfair, or something like that. That might be a hint.

Red phonebooths, fancy big clocks, black taxis, posh neighborhoods. But they have those everywhere!

Ferris wheels and statues, churches and buses. These are not real clues!

Shopping and weddings and overly-fancy government buildings. This could be literally anywhere.

Wait, so how many white people have been swept up by ICE so far? Yeah, that’s what I thought.

I want to say that my new novel is here, but it is really just the four novels of my action/humor sci-fi series, “The Otherwhere Chronicles” all in one place!… part 2…

The cover of my new, full cover for my combined novel series… The broom, briefcase and admiral’s hat are all relevant to the story.

The paintings are my originals, that have been hanging in my garage for decades. I just added the text, and the objects on the front cover. Wait. I did take some spaceships I painted and one that my son-in-law Jason rendered, and Photoshopped them onto my painting to make the sky more crowded.

So I guess that is only mostly an old, original painting.

But that one is all… young me.

This is just the first copy, to check for errors. This one is all my design, and cover art and the included illustrations inside the book.

I used my own paintings as the front and back cover images.

It is also heavy… and thick… like me. 574 pages of funny, exciting space adventure. Great characters. Multiple dimensions. Oh, my!

I have finished a few new paintings… the final chapter, sort of…

I think I may have borrowed the basic idea for this from a Grateful Dead site, but the craziness is all mine. I love the little dancing bears!

I will share a few photos of the painting process, just for fun.

And a few early stages of this painting too.

This is just for you who are interested in painting.

Also, it proves that I painted the dang things.

I have finished a few new paintings… part 11…

This one is interesting. At least to me. Try looking at it from different angles… or maybe that only works when it is the real painting and not a photo, but the skull and cross bones fade in and out of clarity as your eyes move. Also, the skull sockets seem to follow your gaze. Just kidding.
