I was reading the webcomic Player Vs. Player, (www.pvponline.com) as I am wont to do at this time on a Friday afternoon, despite my bosses not thinking it's the best use of my time. The artist (Scott Kurz) posted a special comic and blog entry in remembrance of his beloved basset hound, who died. (yesterday or this morning) I've never met Scott Kurz. I've never met Kirby (the dog). But yet t... read more

My dog had to be put down on Saturday. I know you're looking at the picture and thinking "That's a cat, dummy." Physiologically yes, he was a cat. He was a LOUSY cat… great dog, though.

The fierce independence everyone expects from a cat – he had zero of it. He was fiercely DEpendent. Slave to his routine as well. He knew my routine well enough that he would wake me if I forgot to set the alarm. It wasn't that he was my shadow, he would lead me through my morning routine, one step ahead wh... read more

Re: Moderator jokes
(in Adult Swim)
I was going to say "Imagine it's being narrated by Meatwad…"
Meatwad always thinks he has important things to say. Not that what he says isn't important… it's the most entertaining part of the show that isn't Carl. discussion post on Fri, November 20, 2009 - 1:41 PM

Re: Shoe recomendations?
(in Tribal Costuming)
I go to DiscountDance.com and go to the listings for "modern shoes" and buy a pair of the half-sole sandals. I use these for practices and performances.
I have a hard enough time turning with shoes on, let alone barefoot. Plus I have psoriasis ... read more discussion post on Wed, November 18, 2009 - 1:45 PM
