Comic for Monday, Nov 8, 2004

Posted: 9:03 am, Monday, November 8, 2004

Hope everyone had a good weekend, and that the hangover of Bush's re-election is starting to lift. I've been reading some stuff meant to inspire on-line, but even moreso, I've been avoiding the news like the plague the last few days. This is hard, because 2.0's browser opens to a personalized Yahoo! page that opens with a news headline, so I'm vaguely aware that marshall law was declared. I'm guessing it's got something to do with Iraq, but I wouldn't be too surprised if Bush is just putting the lockdown on states that went blue.

I wonder if it's a coincidence that states voting Republican go red, and that in the GI Joe comic, Cobra's lasers were red? Kerry should've pointed this out in speeches - perhaps it would've gotten more of the late-20s slacker vote.

So, over the weekend, 2.0 and I went to a bunch of art galleries and saw some cool stuff - I think I'll link to the stuff later in the week to try and edumacate youse guys. More than that, though, two of the artists we saw were just really really good. They were all photo exhibits, too, so it's pretty accessible stuff (i.e., 2.0 didn't have to explain every single last thing thing I was looking at to me). We also went hiking in the woods and saw the original Dawn of the Dead and went to a metal bar down on East Broadway for Donovan's birthday. The Donovan girls, they're not metal. I have no idea how this bar was chosen. But I liked it. Wish I had known it was a metal bar, though - I showed up wearing a tan t-shirt! Tres gauche!

Anyway, I'm using my one lame newspost for the week today. Too much shit to do catching back up from taking Friday off, and MNP wrote about a problem with Thursday's strip or something - which blows, because I really liked Thursday's strip - so I have to fix that before I can post this... Bleh.

Links aplenty tomorrow! By the way - how the hell did the Irish beat the Vols? Goes to show - never, ever, ever take gambling advice from me.
