words of the wise (dec 17); Travis Fantina, the real story!
(sorry its late!)
Smith; Thank you for coming Mr. Fantina.
Travis; No problem at all, thank you!
Smith; OK to start out what have you been doing these past few weeks that has kept you from blogging?
Travis; Good question, I have been working hard on the Bob the Chicken Christmas cartoon “The Ice man” and the bad news is that it has been renamed to the Bob the Chicken Winter cartoon because it will not be out in time for Christmas, (There is still a chance but it is slim). Other then that I don’t know.
Smith; What inspired you to first start your blog?
Travis; Hmm, I don’t really know, I guess it was just something I had wanted to do.
Smith: Is it hard to come up with a topic each week?
Travis; it is hard to come up with a topic each week!
Smith; Why are people having trouble logging into the nufichicken message board?
Travis; I am working on it and I think I fixed it, sorry for the inconvenience.
Smith; If I was a magic lamp and you could have any 3 things you wanted, what would they be?
Travis; Well you know that rule about how you cannot wish for more wishes?
Smith: Yes.
Travis; I would wish for that rule to disappear, then I would wish for unlimited wishes, and then well just about anything I wanted.
Smith; Always finding the loopholes!
Smith; The new iBooks have been our for like 5 months, but you bought yours 6 months ago, are you mad?
Travis; YES!! GRRR!
Smith; speaking of computers what do you use to do the nufichicken films?
Travis; Flash for the animation stuff (Flash MX 2004), then iMovie for the Voices, Gradge Band for the music, and to upload it I use Net Finder.
Smith; and this is on the iBook?
Travis; Yep.
Smith; Do you plan to do any other web projects besides nufichicken?
Travis; Yes, I do my freelance stuff, and I am also planning (in my head) some other cartoon projects.
Smith; Nufichicken has a history, blobman_22 then friedpoo22 now the nufichicken dot COM, what do you foresee coming in the future?
Travis; Maybe some live action stuff, a few more games and cartoons, and who knows what else.
Smith; after this cartoon (Ice man) what do you plan to do?
Travis; Cut back! Like I plan a game or cartoon in July but no sooner!
Smith; well it has been a joy, thank you for coming!
Travis; thanks.

First off, so sorry I am late on posting, this is a record the latest I have ever been!
I am not a poet but it seams like a good way to make a point so I have decided to let my heart bleed this week and write a poem of great struggle (a mouse named bill’s to be exact);
A Mouse Named Bill
A poem by Travis Fantina
Mouse,
A mouse named bill,
Bill the mouse died today,
The mouse had not written a will,
So lets take his stuff and run away!
Haha ok I am not going to submit you to that sort of thing, but the point I am trying to make is it is late, I have had a busy week, and so blah blah blah I’m sure you get the message I am trying to send;
1) I am brain dead
2) I cannot think of anything to write, so I am trying to fill (sometimes known as Phil) space.
But I’m not very good at filling space so I am writing this.
Ok I thought of a topic that is sure to be a Killer; Warning Labels on Mattresses! I mean there is some poor person out there sleeping on there floor, I’m sure they would love to have a mattress! But we have to throw our mattress out! Why? Good question, it may have to do with all the diseases in blood, AIDS, HIV, ect but how many people bleed on there mattresses, I’m sure it is as many as bleed on there towels and towels are legal to sell! Now I will say this, I would be a little grossed out to sleep on a used for 5 years mattress but that is just me, I don’t think you should make it illegal! I think if you want a used mattress, knock your self out!

Long Long week!
This has been a very very long week! Like so long we might as well ride slugs around the world. But it has been stuk in slow mode! And the worst part about all this is.... It's not even half over! 8 more hours and it will be Wendsday, then 24 till thursday, and last but not least another 24 untill Friday, then 19 until Saturday!
I know most of you are thinking; it takes 24 hours to get to Saturday from Friday. Yes I know, but this is the reasion the week is going slow, I am in antisapation of Friday, and the reasion is I am going to test my Time-Jump-Nano-Insteller-Travler 5 (beta version). If I can do it I will be the first man on Earth to have a 19 hour day! I hope to work it down so you can have like five hour days and they would be 5-10 so you get off at 5 and start your day then at ten go to sleep wake up at five the next day knowing you have done a full 8 or 9 hour day! (The workers love me!)
In closeing I once again got board at my computer!

It's up!!!!!
Well I finally got Graffiti up http://www.nufichicken.com/ridesmovie.html so sorry for the wait!
As I watched my film I realized why lots of creative people don't watch there movies, I hate mine. So far everybody else liked it, the others who helped liked it, Nerdy Pickle, Bob the Chicken, One guy gave it like 8/10 so it must have been real good oh yeah my mom gave it a 6, I think I don't like it because it's not all that I can dream up but there is something like the Glass Ceiling, and after that you can get no better we have not hit the glass ceiling with this one, but I think we hit a hanging light fixture.

Words of the wise (dec 3); Christmas stories!
“Are you troubled by past holiday disasters? Do you have a funny (for the rest of us that is) Christmas story? If so please write in to us and we may publish your story.”
This appeared in some of my writings this time last year, I’d like to thank you all for your sad and tragic moments at your Christmas gatherings, I had a million laughs reading them all!
Well to tell the truth, I did not ask for you to write in last year, I was not even writing this weekly thing! (Yeah I was smarter then.) But this year I made up some funny Christmas stories that almost seem like they could have happened, and then I selected my favorites to create these fictional yet realistic writings. Well I think I have said all that needs to be said so lets cut to the big juicy finish!
Dear Travis,
I am writing in regards to your request that people send in there holiday stories, well here is one that happened to my family back in 1998. No get ready for this, note I did not make any of this up!
We have a tradition of cutting down a pine from the back woods every year, it was about three days from Christmas I had flown to my partents about two days before, we (my brother father and I) went out to cut down a tree, as we were out in the woods we came upon a wounded deer, so we picked it up and put it on our shoulders and began to trudge back to the house, why we did not just go back and get some supplies I do not know. We walked back and put the deer on the deck, and then we covered him with come blankets.
As my brother ran inside looking for some bandages for the deer (he is a vet), but he forgot to close the door, well that deer just bolted through that door, and right on to the laden table, 2 days of cooking filled with glass, deer hair, and carpet. This was not all the deer ran to the front of the house and out the front widow (it’s hoof’s were first so It was not hurt). At that moment some old friends arrive, the deer just through the window staggers toward there car, still going quite fast. Our friend swerves to avoid the deer and wham into the garage! Well all in all that Christmas cost about 6 thousand dollars!
From,
Names Withheld.
PS; we use a fake tree now.
Now if this did not make you laugh I recommend some sort of night school for the straight-faced. Or maybe you have an even funnier one (I really don’t care how much you make up) so send them to me by leaving a comment on this blog, or email me tfantina@gmail.com or travis@nufichicken.com, I will run comments all through December and most of January!
