Damn you, Jamey Klock! Damn you! Your "Spare change of evil/sofa cushions of wickedness" sig made my check out Sluggy Freelancer, which is entirely too addictive. It's a serial strip, so I've found myself compelled to start at the beginning and work my way through. The strip has been around since 1997. That's a hell of a lot of strips. Sigh. But it's a new bookmark to visit daily.

Saw AI last night, and was impressed, but disappointed. The visuals were amazing, Haley Joel Osment and Jude Law were both really good, the concept was intriguing ... and the follow-through left something to be desired. It should have ended about 20 minutes before it did. That would have been sad -- horrifying -- but would have felt more true. (I would have been devastated and pissed off, but I can't think of a better alternative.) Andy? Wendy? Rich? Anyone else? Let's discuss.

Right now I'm preparing for the traditional "We're a free country, so let's grill things!" celebration at Angie and Jordan's, and also schlepping things over to Lynn's for the garage sale. More on that later.
