About Me
- Name: Jim Woodring
- Location: Seattle, Washington, United States
I was born in the foothills of the San Gabriel Mountains in Southern California and enjoyed an exciting childhood full of poetry and paroniria among the snakes, rats and tarantulas of that enchanted realm. I eventually grew into an inquisitive bearlike man who has had three exciting careers; garbage collector, merry-go-round-operator and cartoonist. Some of my work is collected in THE BOOK OF JIM, THE FRANK BOOK and SEEING THINGS (all published by Fantagraphics) and in various toys, fabrics, prints and urban legends. Thank you for your interest.

Ah, like the redneck's last words - "Hold my beer and watch this!"
great post.
is this part of a diary you keep?
Damn! Is that a true story? I'm thinkin' he forgot to mention the beer keg they had in those woods.
Apparently some kid was taken to the hospital last year with a severe head injury: He had been hit by a freight train. When they asked him how it happened he replied, "I was trying to see how close I could get to a speeding train..."
This guy sure had balls.
Maybe still has them, depending on where he was holding his arm when the stick went off.
You should have said (or should claim to have said), "Double or nothin'!" while waving a sawbuck in the air.
But I don't want to tell you how to remember your own life. That's for the ghost of Xmas past to tell you.
did you grab your money back after hearing his tale?
Does anyone gain sympathy when the card they play says "I'm a fucking moron"
Thankyou...I thought I had lost it.
That's pretty awful. He sure knows how to market himself.
