This was a fun one to make. And I didn’t even plan it. Sometimes when you’ve written for characters long enough, they start to write themselves. This is one of those strips that the characters wrote themselves. Took me by surprise as well. But what does it mean?!? Are Michael and Wendy back together? Is [...]

I’m stuck. I’m totally stuck. Not only is my future devoid of any kind of plan, but I can’t even think of anything clever or satirical to write under this comic strip. So I’m stuck in both the literal and the philosophical sense. I’m doubly stuck. Like a dinosaur caught in one of the La [...]
Ok, I broke the 4th wall. I’m sorry. But I had good reason. When I was a kid I read possibly every book there is to read about Walt Disney. Once in jr. high school, I even chose Walt Disney for my autobiography book report. The book, was in fact, not an autobiography, and I [...]
It is no secret that I have a thing for Disney princesses. While most of these movies were probably designed to appeal to young girls with father issues, inspiring them to be true to themselves, forge their own path and make friends with animals, I embraced these movies for an entirely different reason: the women. [...]
I’m about to tell you a story. It’s a throwing up story, so you are officially forewarned. Once a group of high school students including myself were going up to the hills to camp. On the way, we decided to stop at a popular restaurant that I may or may not have worked at at some point [...]

Ok, since we’re on the subject of lines, I got a story for you. It was only a few years ago…in the land of Disney. It was a busy day at the park, and we had been having poor luck with rides breaking down. (In fact, this wasn’t long after our Tower of Terror experience.) [...]
One of my absolute favorite things to do when riding roller coasters is to figure out where the camera is and try to get a good picture. It all started many, many, many, years ago when this guy (who would later become my brother in law), and I rode some roller coaster by the beach. [...]
Ok. I’m not making this up. That right there is the actual image associated with all of the ride warning signs at Disneyland. I snapped that photo the last time I was there. I just can’t seem to figure it out. What does it mean?? My best guess is that you are not allowed to [...]
Remember back when Pirates of the Caribbean was just an awesome ride instead of an overblown movie franchise that got really, really bad halfway through the second installment? Ahh…those were the days. The ride of course is still there, and it is still a lot fun, but it has been modified from years past. These days [...]
