Far Out There

As I write this, it is after 3 am, Tuesday morning. I just finished scrambling to complete Friday’s page and get it online so that I could finish all my OTHER preparations for Anime USA. As you READ this, I’m either on my way or already up there. In fact, you MIGHT be reading this specifically because I tricked you into it at the con this weekend! If so… I apologize sincerely.

Oh, and on a totally random note, that “sack of coal” bit Ichabod mentions is inspired by Norm Macdonald’s bizarre, rambling appearance on Late Night a few months ago. See if you can find his joke about the Moth & the Podiatrist on the web somewhere. It’s astounding.

(Historical Notes: Man, just when I thought we’d reached the zenith of “previous decade me looking really weird to modern day me,” we have this reminder of a time when I regularly watched late night TV.  I mean, me watching TV at all is a weird thought these days, but this is especially out of character now.  Though that joke about the Moth & the Podiatrist really is something to behold.  I’ll stand by that bit.)
