The Importance of Being Hurl. | hurldog's Blog

Recently, I was messing around on the web and I discovered the original artist that created my little, yellow puking dog. At first, I was thrilled.....I was going to email him and show him the life that his liitle hurl hound had taken on and all the various iterations he had been through. The Christmas Hurls, the Pukasso's, Hurlable Lecter, etc...etc...It was kind of like when you steal a lawn gnome and then take pictures of it as you travel around with it......Then I thought......."Steal"....that's an ugly word.....it's also an accurate word.......this guy wants 19 bucks to use this drawing.....I've used it about...oh...I dunno..... 30,000 times???? The thing is... I teach...poor people...I don't earn that kinda ching. So, I bit the bullet and drew my own Hurl using Paint....for a non-artist, I'm rather proud. But deep in the back of my brain... a little voice is saying "Should I contact this dude" and what would be his reaction?
