oh no ! stop knitting!!

that the reason why the mammoths are extinct
:)

Yeah! Probably and smoking was the reason dinos went extinct, too!!!! ;) Great work!!!

Awesome. Leave it to you to come up with unique solution to this week's theme.

Hahahaha, oooh. I should leave before there is full frontal nudity. Thanks for the giggles!

So cute! But also... ouch! I hope she's done soon so he can put some aloe or something on that. ;)

Haha, fun take on the topic! Love the mammoth.

I love it Jack! This is so great.

This is fabulous Jack.

HA HA! Nice!

Hahahahahaha! HAHAHAHAH! Okay this is absolutely funny. I am on my way to work and I am laughing. Thank you Jack.

So THAT'S what birds do! Hahahaha! I could use a few feathers right now. I know just what I'd do with them too.

Hehehe... you are awesome, you know that? Thanks for the quick chuckle. Now I'm off to tend to my little chicks, thankfully they're too innocent to know about giving anyone "the feather". (^.^)

LOL, you are so funny Jack. You always make me laugh. I love it! Thank you :D

Yep, I'd say he definitely just flipped him the human! Now I want to see the sequel to this cartoon. Funny one, Jack!

Haha! Cute cartoon!

BAAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!!! Hahahahahahahahahaha! Jack, you are cat's meow!

You're always good for a smile! Thanks!

You know what happens when you assume... you make a unicorn's a... oh, never mind. Great expressions on both... I mean, all 3 characters!

ha ha ha brilliant Jack!

Very cute Jack~Nice to see you back on IF :)

Nice work, Jack!

Haha! Hilarious, Jack. Great expressiveness.

Eek! Stick to your guns, little hippo, and tie it to the rock! Adorable characters. :)

What a backup! Funny as always! Love it.

Poor one:)Too funny:)

ha ha ha!!!!

You are so clever, Jack...this is awesome! Wonderful expressions and fabulous characters. Happy new year to you and your lovely wife!

Go ahead, take the plunge! Sometimes your friends are stronger than you think.

And sometimes they're just too silly.

Happy new year, Jack!

Should of put these 2 guys in charge of the fiscal cliff... they definitely seem more qualified. I'd like to see the sequel to this cartoon, too. Funny as always, Jack!

Hi, Jack! What a cute penguin. : ) I hope you had a very happy Christmas.

Merry Christmas and Happy 2013, Jack!!! your penguin is sooo cute! :)

awwww, he is adorable Jack! I hope you had a Merry Christmas!!!

I love the colors. I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and will have a wonderful new year!

So CUTE! Hope you had an excellent and very wonderful Christmas with the family, Jack. And Happy New Year to you too!

Cute illustration.

I hope you had a lovely Christmas. Wishing you and your family a Happy New Year full of happiness and inspiration.

Beautiful rendering! Hope your wife is doing better now.

So glad your back Jack! Hope your wife is doing better. This is a fun piece! Love it :D

Good one, Jack! Nice reinterpretation of the characters in your unmistakeable style!

So, I wonder what the sea monkey did with all of those stolen "clams"... spend them on sea bananas?

Glad to hear things are better!

Fabulous work, Jack, as per usual! I love Dory..she was hilarious in Nemo. : ) And to add Boots to this..well, it's top-notch I tell ya! Hope your lovely wife is doing better..take good care of yourselves and I am wishing you the most wonderful holiday season. Big hugs!

So glad you're back, and glad to hear your wife is doing better.

I hope your wife is on the mend. And a fun and fab piece as always!

Nice to see you back. Hope your wife is doing okay. God bless.

Hehehe, those pranksters. Who doesn't enjoy a rousing game of drown the monkey? ;)

I agree with everyone else! So great to have you back and soooo glad to hear that your wife is better now. It wasn't quite the same without you.

Great to have you back.

Actually, Stretch is hand delivering his Christmas wish-list to Santa, at the N. Pole – which is more than 2.000 miles away from the Armstrong residence! I hope stretch remembered to wear his mitten... he wouldn't want to get frostbite!

Welcome back, Jack!

JACK is BACK! Wooohooooo!!! So good to see a post from you. :)

Looks like Stretch is aiming to goose Bionic Woman Doll. You know how those holiday parties get.

Hope all is well, my friend!

Hahaha! I like both answers offered above. Although, I think he may be just a bit of a trickster and is doing the old tap-the-opposite shoulder of a guy and then pretend to be doing something else!

Hey Jack!

It's obvious that Stretch is stretching out to grab our good friend Jack Foster so he doen't get away again. Glad to have you back, Jack. Oh I like Bella's answer :) but she is so rude! :0 :)

Man hugs from here :)

ahhh... my ol' pal Stretch Armstrong! terrific. you captured him well!

I'm with Bella! Jack, so happy to see you post. I am laughing because I thought of Stretch Armstrong for this weeks prompt but didn't think I could pull it off. You did! I think that Stretch is reaching for a slice of forbidden cake that he will hastily gobble down before anyone knows what happened. He has that cake stealing look about him. ;)

Thanks Andrew! It’s great to back back among the crazy folks :o) Stopped by your blog last night! Love the Art show promos! Thanks for popping by from OZ...my old fiend... er I mean friend :o)

Cwazy? Cwazy? Moi? GnaHahahahahahahahahahahahaha :)
We are blessed to have you back Jack.

all the drawings you haven't shared since May?

Where have you been?! I've missed my laughs. Welcome back! Now all we need is Mr. Finnie back in action too. I wish my arms stretched like Stretch. I'd never get off the couch :)

Stretch is reaching out to pinch Mrs. Armstrong. It's obvious from that goofy grin.

Thanks, Jack... and Mrs. Foster! I enjoyed the collaboration! It was a fun contest, and I can't wait for my Crumby prize!

Just a quick update:

As you can see, Stretch's hand still hasn't made it back to the Armstrong living room. Seems It got a little sidetracked on the way back from the N. Pole when it was asked to join the touring-company of the Addams Family Broadway musical. Stretch's hand is currently earning big bucks, and rave reviews starring as Thing's stunt-double... let's give that hand a hand!

Awe...... love this!!!! Great piece!!

So sweet! Thank you.

Thank you, Jack! You are the best.

Aw, that's sweet. I'm not a mom, but I'll add my best wishes for all of them with you!

Your are so sweet. Hugs to you, Mr. Jack! OXOX

I'm not a mother but I find your illustration very sweet :)
All the best for every mom ♥

awww, that's sweet Jack :)

Je souris... beaucoup... grâce à ce charmant dessin.

Gros bisous

Very Funny! It put a smile on my face today :)

:0)

Haha, cute! The mom looks distressed and the dad looks rather proud. Love the little dog!

Brilliant Jack.

Je pense que j'ai ressenti la même chose en voyant mon fils partir de la maison pour prendre son envol...
Une belle illustration.

You have the best sense of humor Jack! You always, always make me smile. Too cute!

Seriously, I laughed out loud! So funny!

Kind of looks like my desk. I wonder if there's an alligator buried in there somewhere?

These are awesome, Jack! Lots of wonderful work. I loved Shirley's too. I'm afraid that I'm going to be pulling a few all-nighters to get mine done. Hope you are well and GOOD LUCK!

Jack! You rock!! Wow, 3 fabulous illustrations and I must say, I can spy a Jack Foster illustration from far far away. I just knew the Monkey Bread illustration was yours and it is my favorite contender! I think Kraft will have a tough time deciding..I predict one of yours will be a winner, my friend! It is so lovely of you to include my piece here..I am very touched! Yes, I say, everyone..get your drawing shoes on and dance..March 25 is a few days away! : )
whoops..that was me (WLTI)above..sorry!

Good luck! I'm smiling at my flashbacks to the psychadelic age :D

Oh, Jack I wanted to do the Grateful Veg, but haven't had enough time. I will post mine soon if I can get it done :o You, my friend are one super speedy artist! These are great. I love them all but those tiki men are the best!

These are awesome. Good luck!

Hehe hehe Jack - you know how hard it is to salivate and laugh at the same time - well let me tell you, It Aint easy! Oh the Greatful Veg is cracking me up - just love all three of them! You are so good at what you do. Good luck :) Now I'm off to check out Shirley's - as soon as I can find my keyboard - !!! (never laugh and type at the same time - you never know what you might swallow...)

They are all wonderful:)

I love the colors and fun here, they make me smile :)
and they are making me hungry too XD

These are so much fun! Your colors are amazing. I would certainly vote for your recipes! One has to be a resident of the US to compete, so I passed on this contest. :(

Wowee, Jack, you've been cooking up a storm! Yum, yum, yummy!

Toooooooo funny, I love it :) As always, you are so creative Jack and your work brings a smile to my face.

Excellent!

You have all the shades COVERED! Clever (as usual)! :)

I'm sorry, Jack. I don't think you did the prompt correctly this week.

Hahaha! Just kidding. Watch me turn a gorgeous shade of green with envy at your brilliance!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

CLEVER!!!!!

You're always good for a smile Jack!

Too funny:)

You've got the topic covered! Great job.

That's a lot of shades....your illustration made me smile!

Well done Jack... It's been too long since I've checked in with you and this reminds me that I need to come back more often!

You always make me smile. Wonderful.

Well if I were a blue I would be happy to be one of these shades. It's nice to have a choice in life, eh? Wonderful have you have fitted so many meanings into the one. wait till th e farmer's wife finds out where they are hiding. :)

SHADE OVERLOAD!! Great job!!!
