The Good, The Bad, and the Really Ugly: Sketchbook Drawings part 1

I've decided that it's time to put all of the weird stuff from my pile of sketchbooks in one browse-able location for your benefit and mine (but probably not mine. Some of this is pretty decrepit or downright stupid. In fact, my shame is palpable.)
