Boomers In Bloom

BOOMERS IN BLOOM

The Brothers Hypes -- Samuri Web Masters!

This site is dedicated to the best, yet unseen, comic strip in the world, BOOMERS IN BLOOM.

Currently I am converting 120 4-panel strips to computer, which I will post here sometime right after the start of the New, Improved Millennium.

The two exceedingly handsome men above are...ah..from the left (I'm ambidextrious, which means I can't draw with either hand) me, Fred Hypes and my brother Gary, who, I mean, doesn't he LOOK like a person who could design a web page (and scare little children)? Well, he can, just not this one. Do I LOOK like I can? Just the same, I can! I am very much a spiritual-creative, or anal retentive...I forget, as well as a talented web designer. On the day I was born, it was stormy and Dark, the neighbor's pit bull, barked. I'll never again..whoops!

Quick points: I am from Kelseyville,CA. You can see a bit of it in the picture. That's Clearlake in the background behind me and the coastal mountains to the sides and in front. Want to know more? Write the friggin' Chamber of Commerce in Lakeport. This is a comic site, not a travel brochure.

Interests: Women, spirituality, baseball, 49ers, ecology, movies, women, sf/horror genres, genetics, women, gourmet cooking, vegetable gardens, meditation, computers, web design and women (is there an echo in here?).

My Main Boomer Resident--Roger Rogers

Above is a quick Valentine's Day card using my main character, Roger Rogers. Roger has his own problem with VD (come on now, work with me. Throw me a friggin' bo-o-o-n-n-n-e!). Boomers is primarily a strip to make tons of money and meet women...ah, about relationships in the New Millennium.

A boomer or boomette is part of a very special age group, the boomer generation. This generation is famous for 1947 -- the biggest birthrate in history, a year after the troops got home. Boomers are in their very late 30's to...ah..well, dead, actually.

Vietnam came along and neutralized our over-populating generation. Combat? No. What combat? It was the heavy drinking, drug use, pillaging and gun-runing water buffalo. Lost a lot of choppers that way. I know. We came back from the jungles and rice paddies wanting women...ah, into a new society: feminism, civil rights, OJ winning the Heisman. To cope, we relied on our ingrained combat training: heavy drinking, drug use and pillaging. They took our choppers away, so no gun-running buffalo. Niagara Falls? Well, maybe. Those of us that came out of a fog in the 90s (Note: The operative words are Alive and Not Incarcerated!), stepped into an even more bizzare society, a society tap-dancing its way to oblivion. New Age, sexual harrassment, New Age sexual harrassment, political correctness, Sadat Insane and Bill Clinton (who appears in Boomers as William Slick, along with Al Bore and his wife Tippsy), the Eurodollar, the cocaine cartel, Ross Perot (H. Ross Perdiem in Boomers), Bill Gates (cameo as God) and a plethora (put down the Victoria's Secrets and pick up a friggin' dictionary!) of other bong-go mores.
