Today is Keith Ferguson's birthday (aka the 2nd voice of Lightning McQueen), so I wanted to celebrate him by drawing Lieutenant Lightning McQueen since he's from one of my favourite Mater's Tall Tales episodes (and Ferguson voiced Lightning in those shorts) ☺️
As you can see, I used a black & white filter so that the drawing could replicate the style of the short 😁
Phoney is extremely greedy, letting very little deter him from trying to get rich through some scheme he has hatched. This often leads him to act in patronizing or selfish ways that tend to land him and his cousins, Fone Bone and Smiley Bone, in trouble, such as at the beginning of the series where his actions led to him and his cousins being run out of their home of Boneville by an angry mob. He often acts as a cynical counterpoint to his more polite cousins.
While arrogant and often in a bad mood, Phoney does care about his cousins, having raised them growing up and often resorted to his dirty tricks as a means to provide for them. His cousin Smiley has also noted that he has repaid his debts on at least on occasion. And while at times unpleasant, his schemes have rarely if ever have malicious intent behind them and almost always end with his own humiliation.

A great album, with Mike Buck & Keith Ferguson (RIP), from my late friend Basile Kolliopolos. A Greek expatriate living in Oklahoma City, who was always the coolest cat in the room...
Carlos Santana's also curious. Yes, I am repurposing my line about John McLaughlin and putting the sentence into a statement about Mr. Santana. However, I would dare to suggest his reputation does seem to be a bit different thanks to the album we shall discuss at one point in our talks. While the latter – we must be honest here – did a lot of great things to him, that disc also made a highly skewed perception of him. Then again, some Carlos Santana's solo albums, such as Havana Moon, might be to blame for this as well. Mind you, the disc I mentioned shouldn't be seen as that bad, because the LP finds him playing what he liked to listen. You are correct, the recipe might be good, but the dishes lack a certain something.
I was listening to a podcast and an ad for a car dealership came on which sounded for all the world like Flintheart Glomgold desperately trying to sell me a car.
