The Wed. comic is now up. Don't miss Friday's conclusion to the storyline.

Baby Wright is starting to test his boundaries, it seems. He has taken to swatting at the cats. It started innocently enough as what appeared to be an attempt to pet the kitties many months ago. However, in his excitement, the petting became swats to the cats' heads. We ( Read more... )

I saw the movie The Strangers and found myself rather depressed by the whole affair. Without spoiling the movie, it centers around boyfriend and girlfriend, James Hoyt and Kristin McKay, who are staying at a summer house following a friend's wedding.

There were quite a few good comics in that original horribly drawn batch which were ( Read more... )

I'm watching the Democratic debate. To be honest, I haven't watched more than bits and pieces of any of the debates, Dems and Republicans, so I haven't formed an intelligent opinion on any of the candidates. This is rare for me, as I'm usually on top of these things. Some friends have tried to guage my opinion or debate me on the candidates, but I ( Read more... )

My wife took this picture of our son in a pumpkin patch this week. While looking at the picture later, she started laughing, saying how much Baby Wright looked like Snoopy in "It's the Great Pumpkin".

Friday's comic will be delayed until Monday due to unforseen circumstances.

If you happen to be a Radiohead fan you may enjoy (or really really HATE) this. Stereogum, one of the better sources for finding good music, got together some artists to cover Radiohead's "Ok Computer". All the songs are available for a limited time only, so download one, or ( Read more... )
