Nature... Goulet!

RIP, Goulet...



This song's been in my head, off and on, for about a decade now. Seriously.


And this one for Christin...

Yes, Again.

It's November, and that means I'm crazy enough to try writing another novel. Wish me luck...

Because we all loved Calvin and Hobbes...

There is a new biography of Charles Schulz that is apparently rife with controversy, as the author managed to unearth some rather unsavory details about the man that brought us Peanuts. Some people don't like to find out that their heroes may not have been the angels only they imagined them to be.

Anyway, the Wall Street Journal Books section featured a review of the book, written by some dude named Bill Watterson. Questions abounded, first of wich was "How in the hell did the Wall Street Journal FIND him?" It is great writing from Watterson, and the book seems to be a definite pick-up.

Also, a sampling of Bill Watterson work from his days at Kenyon College. This isht is awesome. In twenty years, no one will be clamoring for y'all to scan my old Daily stuff. But Watterson is a much awesomer cartoonist, and my isht pales in comparison. Check that out.

designed to sell drinks

i think this has one or two more air dates coming up. here are some suggestions that troy and i came up for drinking while viewing this episode:

--1 drink whenever andy & gina's last name is pronounced differently from how we pronounce it

--1 drink whenever you spot white sox paraphernalia

--2 drinks whenever andy has a look like he *should* be saying something, but doesn't

--(SPOILER ALERT)chug whenever the over the balcony pulley system is used (/SPOILER ALERT)

--1 drink for every person you recognize during the "open house" segment

--chug at the end of the episode (trust me on this one)

and yes, we have this on dvr, but i wouldn't be opposed to having a copy on dvd just for shits and giggles.
