Only two Dr. Sketchy's Baltimore left this year!
Monday, November 28th, the day after Thanksgiving weekend, Paco Fish will blow your pencil's MIND. After four days of Aunt Mildred's green bean casserole, four days of Uncle Rupert's profanity-laced tirades at all the little men in the box who keep dropping the ball, and four days of every retail store bombarding you with "Store Approved Christmas Mix #3", you're going to need some Art.
Art and Beer.
Paco will help you with that. He'll be a blast of mental fresh air like . . . like . . like a fucking leaf blower stuck in your ear with the dial turned to AWESOME. Not only will Dr. Sketchy's blast

Our last session, which seems a lifetime ago on July 25th, with Femme 6, was our last hurrah before we entered these dark times, and unfortunately it's still over a week before Dahlia Derriere brings back the rain on September 12th. I don't know what you're doing to pass the time---keying paddle boats in the Inner Harbor? Attacking vicars with long-tailed cats? Watching Weeds on
That's right, this is the last one of the summer! Alexis and I are going narwhaling the last two weeks of August and Russell is closing Windup for the second week so he can install a merry-go-round or some such nonsense.
That means the whole miserable, sun-blistered month of August will be a drought of Dr. Sketchy's Baltimore goodness. Yup, you suckers are on your own. Well, for a month anyway.
