what the hell is this about?

Several friends have embarked on their own P365 journey but as I have no camera nor an eye for photography I've decided to try to complete "a doodle a day" for an entire year. Most will be in my little Derwent A5 sketch book but some could end up being from the corner of some document or scribbled on a newspaper. As the year progresses I will try my hand at inking them as well?

If some of them don't make sense, don't worry, they're probably not meant to. You may notice there will be certain themes along the way and if you know me you'll know why.

I hope you enjoy.

Okay, here goes, every day til I'm 39.

Day #190 - Awesome begins with the letter E


on the 30th November 2007 the greatest Daredevil that ever lived passed away.

I remember when I was a boy that every boy wanted to be Evel Knievel and every mother feared that they might try.

the ironic thing is that he didn't die being a Daredevil yet instead lived to a healthy 69 years old before finally succumbing to his health failed due to diabetes and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis.

one of his last quotes was this;

"No king or prince has lived a better life. You're looking at a guy who's really done it all. And there are things I wish I had
done better, not only for me but for the ones I loved,"

Pretty much sums it up eh?
