Last Thursday, I asked for your help with expenses and with a title for my new cartoon, and y'all came through beautifully. The result is that my immediate bills are covered, although I still need money for rent. And I have a perfect title for my cartoon series: Les Beastiables (Les Bez for short!)! Over the weekend, I arranged for ownership of the domain names, but I still have issues getting the Web site up and running.
All who took part have my undying thanks. The winners of the Kontest are those who discussed all things beastly: Besame, Compost On The Weeds, and Smoh; along with penelope pnortney for reminding me of the Scottish poem. And also Alhambra for suggesting something French, which reminded me that French always classes up the joint. But all the suggestions were fantastic and were considered at length!
[NOTE FOR THE CURIOUS: The names are Franglish. Beastiables and Bez are not actual French words!]
Each week, I plan to draw a new beastie (or it may be an old beastie saying something beastlier than the last time!), to be posted every Tuesday evening (here and at www.lesbeastiables.com). Hopefully Les Bez will be widely shared on social media, so that the human beasts who inspired them will be remembered for their beastliness; and so that, depending on who they are, they will be voted against, their TV shows turned off, their shops boycotted, as appropriate. Hopefully with all our efforts, we can turn things around so that this country never looks like that in Les Miz.
Good Lord, deliver us!
