April Fool
Posted Apr 2, 2000
The first day of April and I was in bed all day with a migraine. This was not cool. I could have spent all day terrorizing my friends and family with small, harmless, yet funny pratical jokes but, I will be denied that pleasure for another year. I'm curious what others have done today.
Keenspot hosted this years online comic swap getting over 70 artists totrade strips for a day. I'm not sure if the syndicated comics did the same but hey I didn't get a paper today.
Never leaving without some links to check out... Who loves ya, baby!

Happiness = Cookies
Posted Mar 19, 2000
A couple of weeks ago we were sitting around the shop and talking (We do that sometimes). Guy, one of my friends mentioned the benefits of having a cookie when you're in a bad mood. He went on to add that you can't be in a bad mood when you get a cookie. So if you or someone you know is in a bad mood: Get them a cookie.
Just spreading a little happy.
P.S. If you see me in a foul mood my preferred cookies are Thin Mints.
Hmmmm Thin Mints, refrigerated thin mints... be back in a few...

Online Comics
Posted Mar 19, 2000
Ok people, it started when I became a member of the DNRC (http://www.dilbert.com/ ) in '98; then I found Goats (http://www.goats.com/ Thank you Steve Jackson, thank you). After Goats came Bobbins, User Friendly, and Raod Waffles. (I'm not going to list all the URLs just check my home page for all listed today) Now I'm reading close to 10 online daily comics.
I have become addicted.
I can't say enough about some of the talent out there being passed up day after day by the syndicated presses. Now I can't guarantee my likes and tastes would match yours but after sampling some of my picks (Listed under "Comics" on my website) I think people should use the Internet to it's fullest potential and stop by the links listed below. Yes, I think we should spread laughter to the masses. Read a comic; wiether it's the daily paper, the Sunday Funnies, a comic book or a dedicated web site comics. From American comic books to Japanese manga if you can't find somthing that put's a smile on your face then you haven't searched enough.
My ode to the comics has ended. Thank you for your time.
And now for something completly different.
Ok I've detered some from the orginal subject. To recap: Good Stuff. On the Net. Go get it.
