Birdbrains by Thom Bluemel for June 15, 2010

Well my Blackhawks won the Stanley Cup, but alas I didn’t bet on them!

Good Morning Thom and All

Face in the quarter moons and the smiley face on the old guys robe!

Oh Mendasock! I haven’t even picked a team yet. That explains a lot.

Good Morning Supreme Leader of the Birdbrains Good Morning Fellow Birdbrains & Happy People

I am offended! The blue bird of happiness should be blue!

Mendasock, I picked the Blackhawks (Yea!) but didn’t bet. I’m happier not betting.

LuvH8, that’s not the blue bird of happiness. It’s the green bird of envy. He’s envying those who bet on the Blackhawks.

Hmnn… if the two teeth in the guru’s mouth were eyes then I see another guru….in the mouth and facial hair….

Betting though enlightment?

That’s not the blue bird of happiness, that’s the green bird of mammon.

VIVA EEUU

When the Cubs or the Red Sox do take the series, the secret of happiness will truly be mine. Until then, at least there are scratch off tickets. and faces to count.

Um Lew according to Major League Baseball, the Red Sox won the series in 2004 and 2007. It’s only been 2 1/2 years.

The Cubs on the other hand are working on 101 years. I’m a fan of both teams. I’m willing to let the Red Sox wait until the Cubs win one.

I’m with you on that one, Rac. I wonder how many years it must be before they are awarded a Championship by way of default!

‘Nother face in the beard on the shin. Sort of Edvard Munchian. Sort of a face on the guru sleeve below the happy face.

Pareidolia-fu is strong in the Birdbrains so I’m sure someone will confirm or deny that sleeve face.

Which would make the bird the Birdbrain, Doctor Toon.

I don’t care who wins as longs as it’s not the Yankees or Blue Jays.

Lonewolf - my Fave hockey teams are as follows: 1 - Maple Leafs 2 - Habs / Canucks / Flames / Oilers / Sen’s (all Canadian) 3 - Bruins / Hawks / Rangers (O6) 4 -999 - Anyone but Red Wings 999 - Detroit …

hahahaha

Mornin’ Chief Thom, and the rest of the Tribe.

That green bird is the greenbird of sloppiness.

There’s a face on the guru’s nose. It’s looking down. It looks like there is another face in the room behind the guru too.

Good morning, Everyone!

Thom…I always look forward to finding the faces in your drawings! It makes it lots of fun.

If you look closer there are about 4 or 5 faces in the darkened shadows of the rooms behind and to the side of the guru.

Next year, the Red Wings will emerge triumphant. I have spoken.

GO LAKERS!!

So what is up with the stars and moon?

My team? The ……………?????

Ducks?

Kobe B needs someone to start helping him, Thom or the C’s are going to stun a lot of people!

A bird on the head is worth…….CRAP…. on the head.

Ducks? Okay what the heck!

The Green Bird of Mammon aka Green Bird of Envy aka Green Bird of Greed known for it’s inate sloppiness.

Umm……. make it stay away. Please?

All this sports talk and I missed out on it. This makes me sad because I love sports, especially hockey and football.

Call security! There’s a homeless person on the dias!

I “FF” through sports news but have 3 sons, so sometimes have to show interest. I can see faces even in the texture on my ceiling during my workout- that doesn’t mean they were done on purpose, but Thom SOMETIMES does! Both moons and the badge have them- that’s all that I see for certain- beard probably coincidental.

Hi All -

About the faces… well, sometimes, I think more are seen than I put into the art…

BUT… many times you miss many I do put in.

Examples on today’s: The stars and moon make a face in the floormat (to contrast this, look at the design of moon and stars on the wall). There are two faces built into the steps. Very subtle.

I mention these things because I’m starting to worry about Lew… it’s one thing to hear voices, but it’s totally different NOT to see the faces… muhahahaha.

Thanks to all for making it so much fun!

Oh, and thanks for reading this enlightened cartoon.

Thom

That’s the beauty of Pareidolia, Thom. They’re there whether you put them there intentionally or not.

One of the step faces popped up instantly after I read your post, the other was much more difficult.
