Rough Travelin’ on the Campoon Trail

Well, my fellow Reddingatonians, the fuse is getting shorter on the ol’ Election Day Countdown. I really can’t believe the election is already upon us. I mean, it seems like just last Saturday it was the 4th of July. After all, I saw the fireworks. Didn’t you? At least I thought it was fireworks. I sure hope it wasn’t any of those Uninhibited Fried Omelettes (UFO’s as they’re known over at the Henpecker Room on Tuba Street) dropping off more of those little green guys (I call ’em ‘green-gos’, mostly ’cause they’re green and you should see ’em go!) to take away more jobs any self-respecting American wouldn’t touch with a ten-foot septic sweeper.

Here’s an illustration from a recent foray into the public arena…

You can now see some of Philbert’s Firesign Theatre comics on their web-based fanzine, “It’s Just This Little Chromium Switch Here”. He continues as a regular contributor to Food for Thought: A News Café.

Phil Fountain

Phil Fountain is a pseudonym for ANC’s prodigal cartoonist, Philbert Phountain, who has recently returned from a working hiatus where he served as the lead fact-checker for George Santos. He lives in Shasta County with his long-suffering wife, Christine, as well as a variety of layabouts and urchins who claim to be his progeny … including three grandchildren. He busies himself with his crayons and obsessing over the fate of his favorite baseball team while a small dog sleeps under his desk. He’s actually not such a bad guy as evidenced by the fact the dog rarely bites him anymore. Look for his crudely rendered drawings in future posts on A News Café.
