News: August 11th, 2008With the impending arrival of my firstborn son looming somewhere over the nearby time horizon, I’ve been thinking that it would be prudent to put some plans in place so that Life of Ronnie can continue even if new fatherhood results in me getting behind. Working ahead isn’t really in the cards, so I call [...]
News: May 9th, 2008Well, okay, my wife is actually having the baby. Many of you already knew this, but I thought I should spread the good news on here too. We’re due at the end of September. Yay!
What a cutie, eh? Looks just like me. Roll over for [...]
News: March 25th, 2008I’m in the midst of attempting an upgrade to the blogging software I use for Life of Ronnie (Wordpress, featuring a heavily modified version of the incredible Comicpress theme by Tyler Martin) so if you see anything go wonky, that’s why!
News: March 17th, 2008Me apologies, lads and lassies, but the new comic will come tomorrow! And a foin, foin comic it’ll be.
(I asked my wife to come up with a hilarious Irish cliché to use in this post, but all she could come up with was “I dunno. . . corned beef?” so that was the best you’ll [...]

News: December 10th, 2007My wife’s Grandma Lois passed away on Friday, so we are driving down to Oregon today for the funeral.
I lost both of my grandmothers in the last few years, and even when they are getting old and are ready to move on to a better place, it still makes it rough. One can always [...]
News: November 26th, 2007I met Scott and Georgia Ball a couple of years ago now, when I joined a local cartooning club that meets in Seattle. I immediately fell in love with their comic. Back then it was called “Scooter and Ferret”, soon morphing into “Ask Maridee” when the titular Scooter (a dog) and Ferret [...]
News: September 14th, 2007Anna and I off to Orlando tonight for a fun-and-sun-filled week with the rest of the Routly clan, so my plan is to do a couple of comics on the road. Should they be up late, you can blame Walt Disney, or possibly the good people at Universal. Or maybe someone at Medieval Times. I [...]
News: August 27th, 2007Hey, just wanted to let you all know that today’s comic is going to be a little late getting up. Being away camping all weekend, and then out day and night both today and tomorrow is going to make it difficult to get it finished the way I’d like. But I will get it [...]
