EEEEEE!

Man, check this shit out - here's the history of the Middle East in 90 seconds.

That is some pretty cool shit right there.

The French rogue trader astounds me. Man, how is this even possible? I'm freaked out when I can't find the tenner I know I had in my pocket a second ago. Seven billion dollars? Yowza. 

Brutal, Best Buy.

My apologies for the Stacy London drawing - I was having an impossible time getting it right. She has weird bone structure, or something. Anyway, didn't know I'd touch on a nerve with that one yesterday, although I guess it makes sense. As I said in the late afternoon, I actually like the show, I just detest its editing (as with the editing of just about every reality show - how short do they think our memories are, for God's sake?), and I do enjoy getting mad at Stacy for being such a bitch in the first half. As I said, I think they're just playing roles. (Also, while Clinton may be in with Pat for going to NU, he is semi-dead to me for doing his undergrad at BC.)("Only semi-dead? Bullfrog, you're getting soft as your friend E turns 30 this weekend," you say. I answer, "That's true, E is very, very old, while I am still in the full bloom of 29. And only semi-dead because I had to slightly edit my stance on BC alum because of Craig Finn's having attended UBICH. You write Separation Sunday, you get an entire school of my shit list.") Anyway, now that that's all out of the way, funny story. I wrote/drew this strip on Tuesday morning before jury duty - or last Friday? I can't remember - and that afternoon, while sitting around endlessly waiting for the trial to resume, 2.0 texted me that there was actually an ND grad on the show that afternoon! She had a nearly infinite amount of Irish stuff, I am told, to no surprise whatsoever. (And I think "Don't Wear That" would be a way better title, which is unusual, because I'm usually terrible at naming things.)(See the .url, for an example.)

Also, happy birthday E. And Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaan Alger. And Spacegirl. And anyone else whose birthday it may be this weekend.

I got carded last night - 3 days before my 30th birthday! HA! Also, I have had a cupcake for breakfast everyday this week. Who thinks 30 is bad!?!?

Welcome to the club, e! Happy Birthday to you!

Happy Bday, E! Cupcakes sound like the perfect celebration mechanism.

OBAMA!

Just a note, if you feel the need to garb yourself in Homeboyness for Super Tuesday, order today, or you'll have to pay extra to get delivery in time for polling.
