Comic for Monday, July 3rd, 2006

Posted: 7:50 am, Monday, July 3rd
Don't have a whole lot for you today, gang, but I'm assuming a lot of you are working the four-day weekend and won't be around today, anyway. For the record, there will be a strip tomorrow, but probably not much of a blog to speak of. I expect everyone back here on Wednesday ready to go, though.
Two interesting articles from yesterday's Times - one concerning the fact nobody has any confidants anymore (hey, you guys can always talk to me), and the other concerning ten days that changed the world. I thought they were going to be ten consecutive days, but not so. I never knew anyone came so close to bumping FDR.
Liriano in the AL, Nomah in the NL.
Another story from the Times, about pirates. Modern-day pirates are a lot less cool than the ol' "arr, it be drivin' me nuts" sort of pirates. Also, I find it funny that there's a US Naval destroyer called the Winston S. Churchill.
That's really all I've got. Everybody have a good Fourth. Eat a dog, watch some fireworks.

E -- Monday, July 3 2006, 08:14 am I would never have guessed we are lacking confidants. I
thought the opposite - that we are no longer keeping any
secrets or personal information personal.

choices? Cripes that's pathetic.

Bullfrog -- Monday, July 3 2006, 09:24 am I know I'm not supposed to pay attention to anything she
does, but the news that Coulter can't even come up with her
vile hatred on her own is enough to make me laugh in this
empty, empty office I find myself in.

ad -- Monday, July 3 2006, 09:46 am I love Jimmy Carter... and I'm kind of thankful he didn't
get a second term only because he's done so much good after
leaving office. Maybe he should run for pres. in '08-- bet
he'd win.

Bullfrog -- Monday, July 3 2006, 10:33 am Does this actually surprise anyone? Shitwit wanted
warrantless wire-tapping before 9/11.

...
No.
Bullfrog -- Monday, July 3 2006, 10:51 am Yeah, me neither.
Bullfrog -- Monday, July 3 2006, 11:12 am Hah! Great thing on Gawker about companies making their
employees coming in today, insisting that things will get
done.

I've printed a few documents and pulled a page or two
from the company intranet. And now I think I'm going to read
or something.
MNP -- Monday, July 3 2006, 02:41 pm This is one of the stupidest commentaries I have ever read.
if you want to lose a few brain cells.
