I can't believe I read the whole thing. The funny thing is that the last strip has the main character (for the moment) stoned, and I kept hitting "next", and it was the same strip for days and days which was hilarious and like being stoned until you realize that that's the end of the strip and you've just read several years of comics in a row and ( Read more... )

What do you see in this picture, Nice Pete? "I see a bunch of alive people with eggs and testicles."

Waaaaaaaa- haahahahahhahahahahahahha!

Thank you, Stabby, for this . I love Nice Pete. He's so... nice.

The whole strip starts so abruptly and the next thing you know you've been reading it for an hour. Cat in a thong!

So when I go out with him not only does he drive like a crazy person no matter how big the van we're in, but I learn about this town. Today I learned that if you don't ( Read more... )

Hey Stabby, this is what happens to those pin-ups of yours. I always wondered where they went after they turned 22.

Tonight I made soup.

1 tbsp minced -I say minced- ginger. Use the side of a coffee ( Read more... )

I know (personally and professionally) that drinking and driving is not funny but that doesn't stop North By Northwest from having one of the best chase scenes ever. (edit 11:52: and by "personally", I don't mean that I'm in the habit. I am not a driver. Professionally? I have a client who uses a wheelchair and is missing a leg. You know why ( Read more... )

Bannock, berries, wild game and canned milk are part of a new version of Canada's Food Guide, created specifically for First Nations, Inuit and Métis. [...] The original Canada's Food Guide, which has existed since 1942,, was revamped in February.I can't believe it's been unchanged since then - think of the values! Wartime! Processed food was a ( Read more... )

I would like a new digital camera. I don't know where to start and am easily spooked in stores. I want something that takes nice pictures and has a decent memory, and something that's pretty intuitive to use. Not smarter than me, please! And I don't even know what's a normal price any more.
