The Purple Pinup Guru Platform

When purple things are pulsating on your mind, I'm the one whose clock you want to clean. Aiding is Sparky, the Astral Plane Zen Pup Dog from his mountain stronghold on the Northernmost Island of the Happy Ninja Island chain, this blog will also act as a journal to my wacky antics at an entertainment company and the progress of my self published comic book, The Deposit Man which only appears when I damn well feel like it. Real Soon Now.

The closest I got to meeting Frank would have been my college friend Jo. Jo had bonded with Frank's late wife. I never got to meet him. He strode my world as a giant. I possess a lot of his collected works from Johnny Comet to Louie Lazybones and movie posters.

He did LPs too ...

Let's hope he's somewhere with his beloved wife enjoying vistas like this:
