Make Mine A Double!
Introduction
Greetings to all. I trust all is well where ever you are in this fair land. As for me, I’ve had a nice weekend with an unexpected pleasant surprise.
Seems my father in-law’s big screen tv tanked on him. The repair man said he’s done all that he could to fix it. New lamp, a couple of new circuit boards and still nothing.
So he says to me, “If you can find out what’s broken and fix it, you can have it”.
I told him he had a deal; after all, if it doesn’t work out, I’m only out about a hundred bucks. If it does work out, I just scored myself a 55” LCD HDTV. Just in time for hockey season, I might add.
Now all I have to do is get that sucker to work. Here’s hoping.
Anime Law of the Day
Anime Law #7: Law of Temporal Mortality
'Good Guys' and 'Bad Guys' both die in one of two ways. Either so quick they don't even see it coming, OR it's a long drawn out affair where the character gains much insight to the workings of society, human existence or why the toast always lands butter side down.
The Vad Bag
A woman was arrested in Annapolis, Md., in August after she appeared, smudged with fudge, in a hotel lobby around midnight with "large slabs of fudge bulging out of her pockets". A police officer later checked a nearby Fudge Kitchen store and found the door inexplicably open and a large display quantity missing from the front window. Police said alcohol was involved, along with fudge. [Washington Post, 8-3-07]
Man, I’m dying to make a fudge-packing joke…calm down, Grif, let this one slide…
Features
Today’s piece comes from one of my favorite comic artists by the name of Joe Madieria.
This particular cover work is from an older Image title called “BattleChasers” from around the earli to mid 90’s. Enjoy!
Parting Shots
I have this nephew that lives in Washington. He’s 13 y/o and, frankly, he’s my fricken’ clone.
My sister calls every couple of weeks to tell me what other kinds of shenanigans he pulls on her and my brother in-law.
I gotta tell you. It’s pretty damn hilarious. I mean, he’s doing and saying all the things I did when I was his age. Kinda makes an uncle proud of his hooligan roots *sniff, sniff*
Imagine what it’ll be like when we have our first…poor Zealot. *sinister grin* Excellent.
Later,
Grif
