Yesterday Mel showed me his new laptop with a tablet. Naturally I wanted to try it out. "Give me that thing," I said graciously. I used the little Microsoft Paint program to do a very quick (five minute) sketch of Mel, just to see how it the tablet works for making art, and to show Mel that there are no hard feelings, even if he does have a tablet and I don't. Later, he e-mailed the file to me, and I opened it in Painter IX to do a little cleanup, and then cropped the image. When Mel came home tonight, I said I was planning to post this sketch on my blog. "Good, it is already posted on mine."* Wouldn't you know. . .
