The Boys at the Gym

Backstory

When I was in college, my good friend Aaron was a former State Championship level wrestler. We went to the gym together on occasion. (I used the smaller weights, of course.) The above was one of his favorite gym jokes. You flex and swagger a little in front of the mirrors, and then go back to poor posture, slacker status. It fit Spike and Norville perfectly.

Critter Sighting!

And speaking of Critters and the Gun Show!

Shane is Ugga Dugga’s inspiration. My wife says it goes to his head, but I appreciate his support! He was the first person to buy merch from the Redbubble store that was not, well, me.

You, too, could join the #crittertribe! Follow on Instagram (@joe.iconic) or TikTok (@notesfortracy) for more critters! For Critter Stickers and Gear, go to Redbubble and look for the JoeIconic store. All proceeds go to buying more stickers, temporary tattoos, and other sharable promotional swag, and make coloring pages for the children who come through our local crisis charity! Also, fans send Critter Sightings from Amsterdam to Chicago or country boys like the one above!  Critter Sightings are usually posted on social media on the weekends.
