LOL<br /><br />I do know of Hawthorne, though I preferred "The Birth-Mark".<br /><br />But glad we are on the same page. I hadn't even thought of the scarlet letter when I looked at the picture, though maybe because the font was really close to Alvin's shirt. I had even thought of Laverne from Laverne and Shirley!Dee Mentiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07798903090538917010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-35048016252497516732020-10-07T01:58:38.690-04:002020-10-07T01:58:38.690-04:00Got it in 3.... when I saw the A I was going Hawth...Got it in 3.... when I saw the A I was going Hawthorne - but when I saw Theo it all came together.

I was pretty happy that many parts of the Chipmunk multi-verse fit in so well with what I was looking to do.<br /><br />And yes, inspiration can come from many places, for me, it's usually real life stuff and things I see .. and lately it hadn't been much good stuff, and that can definitely make its way into what I create .. so I'm happy when something goofy like this can be made and have others enjoy it.<br /><br />And yes, that also means we've got at least one bench caption in the queue!Dee Mentiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07798903090538917010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-33563588709271246302020-10-04T10:40:39.091-04:002020-10-04T10:40:39.091-04:00The caption mostly started out with David having i...The caption mostly started out with David having issues with the "boys" and him doing the "auntie" thing of changing them into girls, and them still being troublesome .. and "ALLLLVIIINNNNAAAA!" but as I started writing, having the witch doctor change them worked out really well, especially since David Seville is credited with that song. Then the "two front teeth" "Christmas Don't Be Late" and the pop group all just fell into place.<br /><br />It's weird when you can get TG inspirations from some strange pop culture references and have them work out for the best!Dee Mentiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07798903090538917010noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1870069212223825401.post-64824984781189793082020-10-04T10:36:05.340-04:002020-10-04T10:36:05.340-04:00I was trying to be somewhat subtle about it until ...I was trying to be somewhat subtle about it until the 5th paragraph, and then I decided to lay it on a bit thicker. I don't blame you too much though, as I never referred to them a chipmunks, so I can get that you didn't quite follow.<br /><br />And I didn't realize you had a blog! I will add you to the rolls in the right hand column soon!
