Yahoo Two

Oh hi, it's me, Chris. If you're not one of my regular viewers, I host a web show called "Cute with Chris". You probably found this blog because Yahoo was nice enough to feature cutewithchris.com on their homepage today. That's my picture there, beside the ferret in the hooded sweatshirt. I'm the human. Not the ferret. To the left. Yeah.

Spartacus the Alcoholic Cat

From the A.A. website: "...nobody is too young (or too old) to have trouble with booze. That's because alcoholism is an illness. It can hit anyone. Young, old. Rich, poor. Black, white."

Viewer cat: Spartacus. Sent in by Tova in LOS ANGELES.

Art Car

Math Rights. Show 68.

Space Goats

Way back in September, one of my viewers, Joel, sent me an email saying he'd like to see some baby goats on the show. I worked some into show 72, and as a thank-you, he sent me these pics he took himself.  I like Joel's take on the goat world.  I keep meaning to animate some lasers coming out of their eyes but I've been so busy with drunk wiener dogs, I haven't had time.

Fainting Goats

Amy and Verity were some of my first "Cute with Chris" viewers in England. They sent me this video. Perhaps some of you are familiar with Fainting Goats. I wasn't. Now that I've seen the video, I'll think I'll be trading Colty in for a new co-host.

Baxter

from the AA website: "If you repeatedly drink more than you intend or want to, if you get into trouble, or if you have memory lapses when you drink, you may be an alcoholic. Only you can decide. No one in A.A. will tell you whether you are or not." (CWC; show 78)

Laser Pig

If you watch "Cute with Chris" you'll remember Tina the Guinea Pig. Way back in episode 71, I wrote this little joke where laser beams come out of her eyes. It took me about four hours to digitally draw and edit cheesy little fire-bursts shooting from her eyeballs. Apparently it was worth it because 16 year-old Midge in Florida writes, "Omg! My bff and i almost peed ourselves when we saw that!"  Now that Tina has died, I thought I'd cut this little spaceship/laser tribute and post it on YouTube. Ain't nothin' cooler than a Guinea Pig who can blast crap with her laser eyes.

Viewer Blackies

L: Monster R: Mason. Both from Pennysylvania

Broked

Sent in by CWC viewer Jurga from Finland. (I have no idea if Jurga is a boy's name or a girl's name. Or if Jurga's even a name. It might mean "Here's some broken legs" in Finnish. So thanks. Person from Finland.)
