In drawing 'lil Inky I had to come to grips with my childhood hair. Or as I like to call it, "The Curtain".

Yeah.

Eventually I learned the art of actually parting my hair.

Yeah.

But in reality, my wife did really have to sit though me squirming in my seat during the Indiana Jones trailer. I heard those opening strains, saw the hat ... and was immediately transported to my backyard, jumping from roofs and rolling around in the bushes around my house. I think Indiana Jones had more impact on me as a kid than Star Wars. And that's saying a lot.

We'd play with our Star Wars action figures, but we'd BE Indiana Jones. Flicking our rope "whips" and digging up endless backyards. The novelization of the movie was the first paperback I literally read to pieces.

I just hope I don't get a whole "Episode 1" vibe from this sequel. But even if I do, I can always just put on my hat and leather jacket and go make my own adventures.

I'm sure my parents won't mind me digging around the back yard again.

p.s. And yes, that is a terry cloth shirt. I was a fashion icon as well.
