Posts on Hold

Due to unfortunate circumstances, Calvinistic Cartoons will be delayed for (Lord willing) a few weeks. My computer is in a box at the moment and refuses to come out until I purchase a proper desk for it to work. I have a few pre-posts that will make an appearance, but until there is a daily flow of ideas, I haven't got my Photoshop up and running. (I gave up running a long time ago...now it is up to my PC to exercise itself.) Thanks for understanding.

Want a Picture with Corky?

You send me a ten dollar Amazon Kindle gift card and I will create for you the following:

THREE photomanipulations of photos you email me. Corky can be at your wedding (see photo below), dinner party or backyard barbecue.   

-----Step 1   Send the gift card via email by going to Amazon and creating a gift for Eddie Eddings. My gmail address is: calvinist12345@gmail.com

-----Step 2   Send me your photos. I will Photoshop Corky Velveeta in so it looks absolutely real. If you request it, I could send you and Corky back into the past. (Only need ONE photo of your face and I will choose the time period and old photo.) These will make great screen savers, wallpaper or novelty gifts. I will send these back within a day or two at a resolution of 72 dpi. If you permit, I will post one or two on my blog as part of Corky's travel log.

This will help me not to get reader's block and provide more ideas for Calvinistic Cartoons.

In a Suburb in Serbia

Aside from a tongue twisting title, this photo was sent to our offices at Calvinistic Cartoons headquarters in Kuwait by a Mr. Fontaine Mawibbawetz. He said it was a very rare photo of Nikola Tesla in Serbia, but I suspect it has been Photoshopped.

Letter of Concern

The following is a letter I received from Koko Kula, who lives in the Okavango Delta in Botswana:

Eddie,
I have noticed lately that there has been no Caption Contests, no Lyrical Miracles or T&G, Chic & Gumbo, or Calvinist Cartoons per se. What on earth is going on? Sorry about the snail mail but, we haven't had electricity in four months and my computer was stolen by a Roman Catholic priest named, Father Nada Priest, and dashed against large stones. I have vowed never to drink Sprite because it contains the word "priest"! He has threatened to come back and have me beaten with rods. But, I am more concerned with the changes in your blog. Would you give me some insight as to why you haven't been Photoshopping lately?
Thank you for the seven laughs,
Koko


Koko,
Thanks for taking the time to write. I needed to explain what has been happening lately and you have provided the perfect springboard to do so. My daughter, son-in-law, and grand-daughter are in from Kuwait. The only Photoshop loaded computer is now in the baby's room. I have only a two hour window, in the mornings to do my Photoshopping before I leave for work. Needless to say, I can't go in there without waking the baby. Someday, I hope to own a laptop. That day isn't here yet. When I come home from work, I am working on other important projects. Our two other daughters will be flying in from Colorado soon and staying with us as well. But, all of this is temporary. I will get back to Photoshopping and contests (because I can't create the certificates - I have decided to postpone the contests) (I will try to come up with another kind of contest, in the near future, where certificates are not needed - I am open to suggestions!) Anyway, I appreciate your concern.
Your friend,
Eddie
