Look At The Spikes On Her
And the bird people came and they said, “Hark, you have but one hour to go….”

“There must be some way out of here, said the joker to the thief,
There’s too much confusion, I can’t get no relief.
Businessmen, they drink my wine, plowmen dig my earth,
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth.
No reason to get excited, the thief, he kindly spoke,
There are many here among us who feel that life is but a joke.
But you and I, we’ve been through that, and this is not our fate,
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late.
All along the watchtower, princes kept the view
While all the women came and went, barefoot servants, too.
Outside in the distance a wildcat did growl,
Two riders were approaching, the wind began to howl.”

I Felt So Symbolic Yesterday
“If I Knew Picasso, I would by myself a gray guitar and play……”
I have passed any vague semblance of sanity.
Woo-Hoo!
I could tell you some long, rambling anecdote that would vaguely connect to this picture, but the truth is, I’m running behind on my next post and I’m using that as an excuse to post a picture of two cute girls in Superman panties.
Hey, at least I’m honest about it….

10 Hours Until The Great Collapse
Tick, Tick, Tick.
It’s 11pm and I’m starting to show signs of wear. Drooping just a little.
The beer has been replaced with Pepsi, the music (Counting Crows at the moment) has been turned up a bit and I have caffeine pills on standby. Probably won’t need those until 3 or 4.
The ache in my knees has returned, as it is won’t to do.
Something just exploded outside, which mean somebody gave fireworks to the tourists again.
10 hours to go, which means 20 more posts.
Then I collapse.
Yes, collapse, that sounds nice.
What does any of this have to do with Warren Ellis arm wrestling a pretty young fan?
Not a damn thing, but then, what does?
And There’s No Earthly Way of Knowing Just Exactly Where We’re Going
And the clock keeps ticking…..
It’s now 9:30, just past the halfway point. I’ve eaten a little dinner and I’ve popped open my first beer for the evening.
A couple of friends have stopped by and we’re chatting a bit before they head for the bar.
My mouse is awake and staring at me.
Working on some topics for the second half. I’m going to cover some classic runs on series like the Fantastic Four, Thor and The Incredible Hulk. I bet some of you know which runs I’m going to be talking about.
Pledges are sitting at $235, which ain’t bad, but I know there’s a lot more folks reading than pledging, so please, take a few minutes, sign up and make a pledge. Even if it’s just a dollar. Everything helps…
Wait, What The…..
Ahhhhh.
I am now safely back at home, blogging from my own little (Parenthetically Speaking) command center. I have food, I have Pepsi (and beer) and my wife is here. Much better than work. Blogging from work can be, well, distracting.
Now while I forage for food, I’ll let you gape at this disturbing image.
hehehe
