Randomness
So before we get into it, I just wanted to say congrats and thank you to Shea, our resident Leo DaVinci, he has managed to post 3 comics pretty much on time. The Editors are trying to say that because he technically posted 2 of them after the midnight deadline that he is in breech of contract and that gives them the right to flog him, I told them to just relax...
Speaking of Douglas Adams, if any of you still have never read the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, I highly recommend that you do so. It is probably one of, if not THE funniest series of books I have ever read, but it was written by an Englishman, so if you don't laugh at Benny Hill, if you don't chuckle along with Faulty Towers, if you just "don't get" Monty Python, then I really don't think we can be friends anymore. Just kidding, but honestly if you don't really get the whole British style of humor you should still be able to enjoy these books, and if you do get British comedy, then I think that you are in for a real treat.

I don't really have anything to post right now, I just figured if Shea can get off his lazy ass long enough to post a few decent comics, even if I didn't get the second one. I should be able to post a small little quip about life, the universe, and everything. If even one of you comment with 42 I swear to the big man upstairs...Speaking of Douglas Adams, if any of you still have never read the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, I highly recommend that you do so.

(Pre-cursor): So as the president of the Fountain of Useless Knowledge, I am required to do somethings that I really would not do otherwise, honestly.
Over this weekend I went to see an epic romance, a story about two people who because of duty could never again be together after a torrid affair of that brought them to love each other, and became lovers... And NO I am not talking about Tent Pole Mountain.
Tristan and Isolde, This movie was being pushed as a love story greater then Romeo and Juliet, or as I like to call it: Dumbass 1 and Dumbass 2. T&I could just have easily been called Dumberass 1 and Dumberass 2.
*SPOILER WARNING* (you are only going to get one) Unlike R&J where it is their families trying to keep them apart. T&I it is duty and love of the King that should be keeping them from fornicating. With her marriage to the king it would have helped to end years of bloodshed between the Brits and the Irish, But Nooooooo, T&I just had to get it on! The King 9 years earlier sacrificed his hand to save Tristan as a boy, and then raised him as his own. And what does Tristan do? He fondles the new queen's jiggly bits. Near the end Tristan realizes that what they are doing is wrong, but Isolde is not sated and insists on seeing him again. They get caught and the King ends up imprisoning Tristan. Then because he is a big hearted guy, he sees that T&I are meant to be together and so releases them both. This is at the same time that the Irish are coming to slaughter all of the Brits including the King. Tristan decides that Duty truly is greater then hot passionate sex, and goes back to save the fledgling Kingdom. Isolde just tries to get Tristan to escape with her and spent many hours in the sack. Over all I was unimpressed, but entertained to an extent.
Oh and every single on of the girls/women in the place were weeping as they left the theater, I could only ask why?

Okay I am a huge fan of the Holy Trilogy (STAR WARS/EMPIRE STRIKES BACK/RETURN OF THE JEDI) and before Episodes 1-3 a huge supporter of all things SW, but this is going to far. I mean if you are going to do it stick with one of the trilogies, not both. c'mon people!!!

THIS JUST IN: AAA has released a statement informing the public that after an extensive study they have found that teenage drivers are in the highest percential for crashes and accidents, especially 15 - 17 yr olds. And that it is because they have so little experience to draw from in stressful situations behind the wheel. You know what I have to say to that? NO FRIGGIN DUH!! Wow that took an extensive study to determine that? I wish I coudl work in AAA's research department, I could eff off for like a month and then come back when the deadline was coming due and just write up a little thing, OF FUCKING COMMON SENSE!! God, I can't believe the government didn't get in on this and give them a damn grant.
I can't even think with stupidy like this.
I need a drink.
Best,
Teaspoon

They actually charge you more for insurance if you're 15-17 around my 'hood. Also, they charge you more if you're just learning to drive and if you're a male.
I paid 2k/yr when I got my first car.
