Happy Thanksgiving! And a big “THANK YOU” to all of you readers around the world! Once again I thought it would be fun to include a comic strip recognizing all of you who have stopped by the website in the past year. Thank you for taking time from your busy lives to read a comic [...]
Lousy vegetables. Why is it that everything that is “good for you” tastes like complete and utter garbage? It’s crazy talk I say! Crazy talk! Next you’ll be telling me that skunk-juice and battery acid are “good for me.” Well they aren’t. Trust me. I have a theory. I think our bodies are smarter than [...]
It’s that time of the year again. It’s time to gather all your useless fruit. It is time to smash it authoritatively. I recommend starting with a few good oranges. Perhaps you have an orange tree that is overproducing fruit that is deemed inedible. Or perhaps you have some skunky ones growing some mold and hanging out in [...]
I was not cool this year. I did not attend any wild and crazy Halloween parties on account of my work schedule.

And I have utilized pillow cases and rollerblades to maximize both speed and transitability (I think I just invented [...]

Once you’ve dressed in the clothes, add a little extra padding here and there. Hay sticking out of the sleeves is a [...]
It’s Friday! Time for a new fortune box!! Halloween edition!!!
This past week has been an interesting one for me. I sense changes coming in my future and I’m not entirely certain what to expect. Will it mean a new and fancy job? A change of venue? A new and ridiculously adorable relationship? A new twist in this season’s episodes of Castle?? I just don’t [...]
