Lisa Burton here today. It seems 2017 took some offense to Craig’s last post and his furnace went out. The same one he’s still making payments on. He’s kind of busy right now, so I decided to cover for him.
My job involves being Craig’s personal assistant, and serving as his spokesmodel. This takes me to some awesome places, and I get to wear some fun outfits along the way. I also get to keep the swag from the posters I’m in. You can bet I’m wearing that awesome fur as I put this together. (Craig still hasn’t discovered the bomb hanging from a hoist in the basement.) Anyway, I’m not the writer here so I decided to post a photo collage of the year I had. Hope you enjoy.
There’s also some fun stuff on the calendar for 2018. Hope you guys will stick around.

Did anyone remember to wish you a Merry Christmas and a better New Year, Lisa? I hope they did, and we both send ours…
(help Craig to have a better year too XX )

Bomb hanging from a hoist? Yikes! Someone might want to point that out to him…
Lisa, you rocked some awesome looks this year. You look stellar in each and every outfit, but I think I’m partial to the faux fur, the gold gown, the umpire, and the Egyptian look (but we might need to credit Craig for that one, as he made an excellent Sphinx.) Milk Monroe was pretty cool, too. Can’t wait to see your fashion choices in 2018!

Totally random question. You ever look into making a Lisa Burton calendar? Sorry about the furnace.

I’ve thought about it many times, but can’t get over the idea that it’s Sean’s work and not mine. Yeah, my character and ideas, but his talent.

Good point. Felt that when I considered a Windemere one even though Jason kept telling me the art is mine to do with as I want.

It would be easy to use the book art and blurb the books on a calendar. There is the whole printing, warehousing, and shipping issue to consider too. Sean feels the same way as Jason. It’s my art to do with as I please.

Are there still sites like Zazzle and Cafepress? I remember looking into them for t-shirts, but nothing came of it.

Lisa, I hope Craig isn’t having the dreadfully cold weather we are right now. What a horrible time for the furnace to cut out. Hope it all works out soon.
Loved the look back at your fashion choices. What fun to keep all those outfits!

It is that cold here too. Wound up needing a new $700 thermostat. Ours was under warranty, so I’m breathing a sigh of relief. Lisa loves her outfit, but loves her motorcycle even more. She’s pouting because it’s winter.

Thank you for filling in for Craig, Lisa. I hope his heat comes back on. I’ll bet if he ever gets downstairs he will see that bomb. Nothing like a Fat Boy in the basement to get the blood running. Happy New Year to you, Craig and old what’s her name.

The heat is back on. Wonder if we could repurpose that thing and make some kind of nuclear heater out of it.

Easy to do. See that little screw below the sign that says, “Do not turn screw.” Just turn it a half turn clockwise and you’ll have all the heat you need. Oh, and a set of ear plugs may come in handy.
