On the road again...
Am currently hacking away at the keyboard of dear friends Ann and Dave (or Dave and Ann for the non-alphabetically-inclined among you) in lovely Indianapolis, IN. I know Ann and Dave from my year at college (no, the singular is not a typo). I was in their wedding. Theyre neat-o.
There are small dogs around. And though I darent say this out loud (though theyre Ann and Dave are both readers, so the truth will become known before too long), I wonder if the dogs arent somehow chemically stimulatedI mean, really, thats a lot of energy. I cant help but wonder if theyre putting crystal meth into their (the dogs) water or somesuch.
Did a lot of shopping before hitting the road, almost none of it for me, I bought some, but not all of the comics I had waiting for me, by request of my comics store manager. It gets a little complicated, but he wants me to come back on Wednesday, which, for him, Im more than happy to do. Of course, for him, I am willing space monkey and he is Tyler Durden, but whatever.
I wonder if/how much this entry will be affected by the change of venue. Youll tell me, I suppose.
I read today what was, by far, the bitterest response to the September 11 attacks that Ive seen. It was three panels (and for those who know of such things, it was by Frank Miller): The first panel, half a page, white on black, extreme closeup of a star, captioned I dont need a flag. Second panel, half a page again, black on white, extreme closeup of a cross, captioned I dont need God. Third panel, full page, white on black of the WTC facade, twisted and fallen, captioned Ive seen the power of faith. My words cant really do it justice. But I read it and instantly remarked that I wanted to get it tattooed on my skinand, mind you, I dislike tattoos and had never considered one in the past (and still dont really, but its a useful form of hyperbole in this case). Interestingly, the person who showed it to me said he had the same reaction. That Mr. Miller does good work, he does.
I also did a lot of driving today. I can now personally attest to the fact that you will drive faster after drinking a liter of Coke on the trip, if only to dispose of said Coke post-consumption.
Todays Link Of The Day, submitted by my host Dave, is BoxJams Doodle. He says its his number one favorite online comic strip, and he reads a lot of them, so Id be inclined to trust his judgment. It is, in the words of its creator, drawings about stuff. Go, discover for yourself. http://www.boxjamsdoodle.com/
