Of all there is to know, we probably know a lot less than we think we know.
Thanks to Debbie Adams, Fraz recently struck it rich by discovering oil on his island. Fraz has been very fortunate lately. Is there anything he can’t do with a little help from his friends? You can read the original account of Fraz striking oil on Debbie’s Art blog.

OH my Goodness How did Fraz survive all that 😯
Fraz time has come my friend if i dont take you out of there you will learn something which will give you nightmares..
here i come be ready 🙂
Fraz is a natural born survivor and he has his school satchel filled with chocolates, wine gums, spam, marshmallows and spambo-wambo burgers and pancakes to prove it 🙂
That’s for sure! I’d never be able to get through a day at school without my treats! And I also sneak Genie in my pack, too. If I can.
That is a great idea, because when you run out of sweets and pancakes you can just ask Genie for some more, wow what a brilliant plan 🙂
And Genie is pretty popular with the other kids, too! She likes granting wishes to everyone!
Yes you are right, she has been granting a few for me too 🙂 Well I am a Big Kid you know, just ask Cat 🙂
Genie is really good at big kid wishes, too!
I am pleased to hear that Fraz 🙂
I hope Genie gives you the wishes you want!
Hey I hope so too 🙂 One of them includes something for you so get ready for a nice surprise 🙂
Oh boy! I can hardly wait!
Hey the surprise is… drum roll please… brrrrrrrrrrr drrrrrrrrrrr brrrrrrrrrrr I have just subscribed to you all on Youtube and added a few old videos, now don’t get too excited because the quality is a bit icky but I will get better now that I am using my new mobile, of which I will be adding some more soon, soooo what do you think of that for a surprise? 🙂 Here have some chocolates 🙂
I never knew you were a video star! I’m gonna check them out!
Funny videos, Andro! I never really thought of you as a comedian!
Wow have you seen them already? I haven’t been on there this evening so I didn’t know that you had been on them… Thank you for your kind thoughts though, I am hoping that the next one’s will be better 🙂
I hope that you didn’t mind me mentioning Wombania on one of them, that was done this morning and I added it straight away without thinking it through 🙁
I used the Youtube video editor and added it in a cartoon format but I am not sure if it looks okay like that or not? Yes I am crackers, there is no doubt about that Peter 🙂
Yes, I watched them all. I don’t mind at all you mentioning the Wombies! That one was my favourite. That cartoony effect gives it a certain charm, I think. And the absent-minded host character is great.
And now I can’t get Fraz off of your YouTube channel. He’s watching his hero.
How very kind of you my great friend, I will be mentioning Wombania quite a lot in the coming weeks and months, and as Fraz is such a delightful Wombie he is bound to be mentioned again and again, in fact I would imagine all the Wombies will have a mention sooner or later, but not Sup… Erm you know, him 🙂 lol Thank you for taking the time to watch my slapstick approach to comedy and of course for being such a fine and wicked great friend 🙂
You’re very welcome, Andro. It was quite a delight watching them. And it was nice to see the comedy side of you. (Andro’s videos can be seen here.)
Hi Peter I have just been and reset the ‘Crackers’ video so that you can use it here, I had forgotten that I changed the settings for embedding, but this one has been changed so that you can add it as you requested 🙂 Thank you for adding me on Google+ I am not so familiar with all the settings yet but I am getting into it gradually 🙂 lol Have a fun evening my great friend 🙂
Thanks for changing that. I was going to ask you about it. I believe you still get the views counted even when it’s embedded on another site.
I actually do very little on Google+ but I saw your link there and added you.
To be honest I hadn’t planned on joining anywhere else apart from Youtube but then I wasn’t aware that they were combined, so it was a case of joining both at the same time, I too won’t have much time on the Google + bit but never say never is my motto 🙂 Thank you for adding me Peter 🙂
You’re welcome, Andro. I guess Google’s trying to integrate all their services. It won’t be long before they own all of us.
I am hoping to get caught up enough to circle you, too, Andro. Digging out is a bear. And I know a thing or seven about bears 😉
It’s a bear world out there.
Good thing mine is housebroken.
That definitely makes things more bearable. Haha!
I’m ready to be rescued, Soma! I’m hiding out behind the oil well!
Thank Goodness we have super talented Generous Deb…Fraz needs an island as far as possible from all the Binky knowledge..
Yes and he doesn’t have to go to school to learn it either so he is as happy as a Wombie in flippers 🙂 Well he is on the beach 🙂
But they’re forcing me to go to school now! I don’t know if I can survive!
Who is they.?..we can coral the Zombies their way.
Chris and Twink, mostly! They always say they know what’s best for me!
Yeah, I needed my island a lot this summer!
Why would you want to be rescued from you island that you just struck oil on?
Rescued from not having to go to school!
You have been having a lot of island parties this summer.
Yeah, it was alotta lotta fun! And no hurricanes, either!
Thanks so much, Soma! 🙂
This is one of Deb’s fun paintings and I always look forwards to seeing those as she has a very creative mind 🙂 I like the little touch of the bottle bobbing up and down in the sea, very good that 🙂
The bottle is my note to Soma. Come rescue me!!
I like it 🙂
Thank you, Andro! 🙂
You’re welcome Deb 🙂
A Wombie dropout. Is that even allowed?
No school for me! Yay!
Hey Loon have you thought about all the chocolates and sweets we will all be having, Genie is in his satchel too you know and that means plenty of goodies for a Frazzy picnic 🙂
Recess and lunch with Genie almost make school fun!
Yes and even I like school when Genie is around 🙂
Genie makes school a lot better than normal!
Especially with all those extra yummy sweets we get 🙂
Yeah, and the games we get to play at recess! Like the flying carpet ride!
And the Heltah Skeltah Skelliebob Race 🙂
Is that where we race the skeletons on toboggans?
Well that is one version and I like your idea a lot better as those heltah skeltah’s go round and round and can make you a bit dizzy 🙁
If Genie wants to play, we could have magic carpet races, too! They’re really cool!
Yes that sounds great, and if we are really good she might let us race in some Go-karts too 🙂
Rocket powered go karts, I hope!
Are there any other kind for you and me Fraz? 🙂 I will ask Binky to add some super thrusters, we need to go as fast as we can 🙂
Maybe we can set the world’s record for the fastest go karts!
A Fraz picnic? Sheez, we might have to rent somewhere like Switzerland to handle all that chocolate :Shock:
Switzerland would be good! We’ll meet at the Matterhorn!
Great I’m packed already, hey Loon don’t forget your skis 🙂
Or your toboggan!
or my snowman maker 🙂
Snow fun here we come!
I can’t wait to get out on the slopes 🙂
Me too!
And we can have a snowball fight!
Or have a Snowman building contest 🙂
Yeah, that too! There’d better be a lot of snow there!
There is more snow than a
Yeti can shake a stick at 🙂
I hope that Yeti doesn’t shake that stick at us, though!
What’s Fraz going to do all day if he doesn’t go to school? If he eats chocolates and wine gums all day, he’s going to be one fat Wombie!
I can go pirating, and exploring, and treasure hunting, and all sorts of neat stuff!
Yes but watch out for the Zombies 🙁
I always do! Those Zombies are everywhere! Even underwater!
I’m not going it the water anymore if they’re in there.
I can send Sharky over to protect you! He doesn’t like Zombies, either!
I wondered where that Zombie was hiding, now I know, he has been after your Pirate Treasures 🙁
I think Zombies are attracted to the shiny stuff like gold and jewels.
Yes we will have to leave a trap for him next time have you any ideas? 🙂
I guess we could bait the zombie trap with some gold. Maybe some goldfingers!
Yes well as long as James Bond doesn’t turn up at the wrong moment we should be able to tempt those Zombies back into their traps 🙂
Maybe we could trap James Bond, too! That’d be cool!
Yes well just mention Goldfinger and he will be there in a flash 🙂
Goldfinger, Goldfinger, Goldfinger!
He can’t quit school! Where else is he gonna learn useless knowledge in preparation for Jeopardy try-outs?!!!
Useless is right! I don’t need to know stuff. I wanna be a cartoonist!
You already are.
I guess I should start drawing cartoons, then!
You’re already a star when it comes down to cartooning Fraz and you are also a genius at eating lots of pancakes too 🙂
I’m better at eating pancakes, though. And it’s a lot easier, too!
Yes I agree, I am finding it much easier on the pancake eating than the drawing 🙂
And it makes your tummy feel better, too!
You’re not kidding 🙂 Mmmmmm
I know we know far less than we think we do. I love this cartoon though. Perception is a tricky thing.
Have a terrific day. 🙂
And the older we get, the less we know we know.
That’s for sure. 😉
Hahaha…
I suspect Fraz ‘KNEW’ he wasn’t going to get by with that one!
🙂
I had to try, anyway!
It didn’t work, though.
Maybe next time Fraz? 🙂
I hope so!
🙂 🙂
That is exactly why I quit school!
Well you’re a pirate, too! We pirates don’t need schooling!
That would have been good advice for me when I was still in school. Now I have all this worthless knowlege
That’s like most adults. They all know lots of useless stuff.
Yes but I do have a few wickedly nice pancake and ice cream recipes so it’s not all useless info we learn 🙂 How about a big bowl of strawberry and blueberry ice cream Fraz? 🙂
That sounds like a good after school treat! Thanks, Andro!
They don’t teach us yummy recipes like that in my school!
Mmmm. I’d love to have a bowl of that. 🙂
You can have mine. Andro will make more for us!
Yes I am a whizz at making up lots of yummy recipes and ice cream with pancake and cherry surprise is just one of my new creations 🙂
I’d be glad to try some of your other yummy treats!
Don’t worry Fraz you are on the top of my list for the new trials, and ice cream and new milkshake recipies are the next one’s to sample:)
I’m ready for the sampling! You can never have too many milkshakes!
That is two large bowls of yummy ice cream coming up for You and Frazzy then, and do you want choco flakes on it? 🙂
Of course! And wine gums too, if you can!
No problem, in fact any extras you like such as wine gums and fudge can be added anytime that you like 🙂
Yay! That makes it even more special! And yummier, too!
How do you fancy trying out the new and improved Super Duper Marshmallow and Caramel Fudge Ice Cream with triple Wine Gum topping? 🙂
It was great!! Oh, was I supposed to wait for you?
Erm, yes but it’s okay I don’t mind making another batch 🙂
Sorry! It was just so good I couldn’t slow down!
It’s okay I have already made another batch, but this time there are a lot more ingredients added so it should last a bit longer 🙂
Good. I promise to share this time! These ones are even more yummy than the last ones you made!
I think that with practice we
get better at everything we make 🙂
Here have some fudge candy you
will like these 🙂
I do! They’re fudgeriffic!
You can have one of my special Skellie Pancakes Bearman, you won’t regret it 🙂
Other than he might want more. And more, and more, and more!
He will be hooked on them for sure 🙂
He might even turn into a green haired Wombie!
With his tongue sticking out of the other side of his mouth 🙂
I wonder if that hurts?
Hopefully not but if it does we can give him a Winkywonka chocolate bar that should cheer him up a bit 🙂
I could use some cheering up, too!
Hey you can have some of my Fudgerooniepancake Ice Cream with Triple Cookie topping 🙂 I bet that is cheering you up already Fraz 🙂
It is!! But a second helping would cheer me up even more!
I always have a second and third helping standing by for you Fraz 🙂
Yay! I’m all cheered up now!
Man Binky, you lost me at “we”.
Me too!
Have you any idea what has happened at Red’s Space I cannot get in from any of our links to her Space? 🙁 I do hope that she is okay and that it is just a silly techno glitch of some kind…
I just tried it, and the link works for me. I know Red was on vacation last week, so maybe she was updating or fixing something when you tried to access her site?
Likely…I just tried and had access too.
Okay it must be fixed now then, thank you both for that wonderful info 🙂 Okay there are lots of wicked treats for your help so grab whatever goodies you like you two 🙂
I hardly get any treats any more because the you-know-whos always get there first.
Yes Fraz was already eating some of the extra large pancakes I left for you but luckily Twink was able to help me out by using her pancake making machine, so there are plenty left if you are hungry enough? 🙂
I’m always left hungry with the Wombies around! Pancakes at last!
Don’t forget the maple syrup or dark fudge chocolate whipped cream 🙂
I won’t, if I can get them before they disappear!
I have stashed two helpings at the very back of the fridge, if you hurry Fraz might not have seen them 🙂
That worked! Fraz was too busy with his Zombie traps to notice. Treats at last!
Excellent and I will be making sure that you get your fair share over the coming days, weeks, months and years so get ready for all those goodies Peter 🙂
Sounds good. I just hope my waist will forgive me.
Don’t worry a bowl full of my special mix ice cream has only 4,000 calories, or is it 5,000? 🙂
Those calories don’t seem to stick to the Wombies, but with us humans it’s another matter entirely.
Sounds like my parents when I was a kid.
Well I guess you survived anyway!
Surviving is good 🙂
That’s for sure!
You can’t quit school, Fraz, you want to be President and a candidate can’t be a quitter.
Maybe I could just graduate early, then. Like tomorrow.
Love that last panel with Fraz’s shoulders slumped…priceless. 😉
Thanks, Deb. Poor Fraz was feeling a bit defeated.
Thanks for posting my drawing of Fraz sticking oil…He needed to be richer!
It’s a great painting that one Deb 🙂
You’re welcome. And I think Fraz would definitely agree with you.
A valid argument. I’m quitting work too.
You can come to my island and join us pirates!
The more I know, the more I know that I don’t know much.
http://joycelansky.blogspot.com
Unfortunately, that’s the way it goes.
I’m with Fraz!
What’s the use of school when we don’t know anything anyways?
Great! Now I’m depressed and I just got my day started. Good thing I am an American because there is probably a pill for this problem 🙂
Like a pill to make you smarter?
That pill is called the NZT pill. They made a movie about it. The only side effect is eventual death.
That sounds kinda scary!
I like scary 🙂
Even dead scary??
Don’t forget, for a time one is scary smart.
Oh, in the movie I think the main character runs for the senate… right up your alley Fraz.
Scary smart might be okay. Most people say politicians are crazy. But I just want to rule the world so I can give everyone all the free chocolate they want!
With campaigning like that I am
convinced that you will be voted in 🙂
Yaaay President Fraz 🙂
I think I can count on the chocolate vote!
Yes and the panckae, wine gums, spambo-wambo burgers and marshmallow votes too 🙂
And the pirate vote, too, I think!
I hope that’ll be enough to win!
Even if Fraz is labeled “The Little One” by Binky, he surely can get lucky with every “little” thing that he does! Fraz for President! Yay, chocolates! 🙂
Endless chocolates for everyone if I get elected President! Vote Fraz!
Felicia knows all about your chocolate giveaways Fraz so ‘Fraz for President’ is always on the tips of our tongues, and so is all that yummy chocolate 🙂
I should get Winky’s factory to make some chocolate Vote For Fraz buttons! I bet they’d be popular!
Yes but they will be eaten too quickly 🙁
I guess they might be. Maybe we should make Vote For Fraz buttons coated with Vote For Fraz chocolate on top. Then when the eat the chocolate, they’ll still have the button they can wear underneath!
Yes we can add a jolly
slogan like ‘Suck It and See’
or ‘Frazzles Rules’ anything
that will help you win is a
good idea for all of us choco
eating fans 🙂
I’ll have to get Winky’s chocolate factory to start making all kinds of Vote Fraz buttons! Enough chocolate buttons for everyone!
Winky will be eating as many as he produces so I hope that he remembers to triple every order or we might not have enough for everyone 🙁
I told Winky to not eat too many of my buttons cause this is important! He can eat all the other chocolate things instead!
I am voting Fraz in November!
Yay! You won’t be sorry! I’ll be a good President/King/Prime Minister!
You won’t regret it Tom 🙂
Saw right through that one. It’s a “studies break.”
I’d rather have a school break. Forever!
Don’t hang out with Binky too much Fraz!! He makes my head dizzy
It’s all that rocket designing that does it, and perhaps some rocket fuel fumes too? 🙁 It’s okay though Kroten, we have air masks at the ready so you will be alright 🙂
You’re probably right. Too much rocketing has made Binky like that. I think I should wear one of those masks the next time I visit him!
Yes I will bring one over for you on my next visit, by the way there is a free membership to the Andro Choco Bikkie Club with every mask so how about that for a bonus? 🙂
That sounds good! Whatever a bikkie is. Is that like a bike?
No it is slang for a
biscuit but you were
very close 🙂
I wondered how a chocolate bike would work!
Chocolate biscuits sound a lot better!
Yes but thinking about it, we could always ask Winky to add a Chocolate Bicycle mould into his ever growing list of goodies to manufacture, I think we could enjoy riding that to the beach and then eat it on the way back 🙂
A chocolate bike would be awesome! As long as it doesn’t melt. Maybe if we filled it with cold milk. Then by the time we got to the beach, we’d have a millkshake bike!
That sounds brilliant, Fraz
you are such a genius 🙂 🙂
I have a lot of smart friends!
Yeah, there’s only so much Binky I can take!
Poor Fraz, sometimes you just gotta ignore Binky when he goes all philosophical.
I guess I should’ve just stuffed some chocolate in my ears!
Or in Binky’s mouth, he wouldn’t be able to talk and eat chocolates Fraz 🙂
That’s a pretty good idea! I’ll have to try that next time he starts babbling!
But remember to save some
chocolates for yourself too 🙂
Don’t worry. I won’t forget that!
Yes it was a bit of a
daft question that one…
You never have to remind a Wombie to eat his chocolate!
i will definitely remember that one 🙂
I’m surprised he didn’t already want to quit school! I suppose some good naps can be had there…
Naps are good, but not as good as no school!
School can be fun you know, Fraz. I once faked being sick so to escape school one day, but in the end I got quite bored at home! The worst part of it was that my mom bought home some yummy cakes and only she and my siblings ate that cake, and forbade me because I was sick, she said. I’m not sure she knew I was faking it, but I sure learned my lesson.
No cake for playing sick?? That’s worse punishment than going to school!
Good reason to quit school. 🙂
Nice painting by Fraz.
I think so!
Auntie Deb did the painting, though. Not me!
Peter,
What kind of software are you using to render these wombats?
I use Animation Master.
I was looking on that Youtube and there are some free Apps to use, one is called Goanimate so it could be interesting looking into that on there 🙂 For me I mean, you are already the master on cartooning comic strips, I think that this App is just to enhance the vids for novices such as what I am 🙂
I’ve never heard of Goanimate, but there are a number of freeware programs out there. Blender is a decent one for 3D animations, but it would not be a quick or easy one to learn.
The Goanimate one suggests that it can change the format to animation within ten minutes, but I don’t have any data on it as it was just something I saw on the editing part of Youtube Vids, but it does sound good 🙂 I will have to look into the Blender idea but it does seem complicated 🙁
I think Blender is for someone who is willing to invest a lot of time into learning it, but I could be wrong. There are a number of animation programs out there, but I don’t really have any experience with them to make an informed recommendation.
Muahahah. Binky should just play games with Fraz.
Yeah! But not math games! They’re no fun.
How about an eat as much
chocolate as you like game? 🙂
Now that would be fun!
Helloooooo cha it is very
nice to see you back here 🙂
Yay!! Thanks, Andro!!! I’m thinking about making a new Wombie fan art. But I’m not inspired… I want to make something very good. I don’t want to disappoint, you know.
We certainly look forward to anything you create, Cha. And I don’t think we could possible be disappointed in your art. It’s always so good.
Looks like Fraz has good reason for quitting. Now that he’s struck oil he don’t need education to earn money.
The Ballad of Fraz Clampett
Come and listen to a story about a wombie named Fraz . A poor islander, barely kept his family fed, Then one day he was shootin at some food, and up through the ground came a bubblin crude.
Oil that is, black gold, Texas tea.
That’s right! I’ve got oil! I don’t need no education!
I like that song though! Maybe it should be my theme song!
Philosophy is not for kids. They always take it wrong 😉
