HOPELESSLY ADDICTED to have the right addiction. Having last year’s addiction is the kiss of death in au currant tinsel town.
Nevertheless, I got myself pierced and tattooed to make sure the tastemakers would know I’m a truly hip person with the right addiction. I’m addicted to the internet. I’m logged on the internet from breakfast to bedtime. Know what I call a Hilton without a high-speed internet hook-up? Camping. difference!? I might as well log on and be happy, right? difference!? I might as well log on and be happy, right?
The site is sccs-onlong.org. In the interest of self-disclosure, the designer and webmaster is Jack Zabawa, a guy I know pretty well. Sccs-online.org has everything I want in a website: It’s fun to look at, it’ s interesting and it’s constantly updated with the newest and most current information! That’s right, I said constantly updated. You never know when you log on if you’ll go “Wow, something’s new! That’s so cool. I didn’t know that!” SCCS-online.org has something for everybody. There are links to SCCS member’s websites (the hottest go-to page statistically). There’s Member News and a BLOG if you like to read, and tons of original SCCS original cartoons if you don’t. There’s a scrapbook full of absolutely beautiful color photos of you and your cartoonist friends taken at just about every SCCS meeting and event! You can right click any photo, enlarge it and print it out to keep foreverandever! Need the Emails of the new SCCS Member Board? It’s on the site. Wondering when’s the next meeting, who’s speaking and where it is? It’ s on the site! Need a map to the meeting that you can print out? It’s on the site! In fact, the next five months of meeting announcements are listed right on the front page. Sccs-online.org is also multi-media. Yes, just when you thought the website couldn’t get any better, there are video clips posted. You heard me right, video clips. Due to the efforts of the two Jacks (White and Zabawa) there are now four 10-minute video drawing lessons starring SCCS members Joe Schmidt, Doreen Douthit, John Wismont and Janet Williams. The lessons are diverse, delightful and they’re free. See U on-line! Karyl Miller, prez, SCCS -30-
