And now for something completely different: Death Panda
They just don't write spine tinglers about killer pandas like they used to. Check out Heroic Comics #35, Facing Death in a Panda's Mouth, in its entirety below the fold.
Pandas really don't have such huge, pointy canines, do they? Unless the rare giant killer death panda does....
The comic is pretty awesome, for all values of 'awesome' = 'terrible'....
I had xtra sharp cheddar and a honeycrisp apple for lunch (and a few crackers). I know I'll be hungry soon but, dag, it was delicious!

If I were a piece of bamboo, I'd be pretty damned scared of 'em: [link] (they are carnivores, after all, even if they're freaky vegetarian carnivores.)
She's like a nice looking parrot ....
I might have to vote for john cleese for something...
If I can make it out of here for 15 minutes I might have to run out to the farmer's market and see what I can scare up in the way of apples and good cheese.
William Gibson bags and coats
Cyberpunk science fiction pioneer William Gibson has lent his name to some very cool bags and jackets (and sneakers). The products are a joint effort of two Japanese firms, bag company Porter, and Buzz Rickson, remakers of vintage military clothing. The William Gibson Collection from Buzz Rickson includes a black M-65 field jacket, N-3 flying jacket, and N-1 deck jacket.

UPDATE: In the comments, Doctor Popular points out that Self Edge in San Francisco has the bags and sneakers for sale and are hosting a party with Gibson in person on 11/9.
So. I know it's only 2pm on Tuesday, but I'm leaving early tomorrow to go on vacation, and I just SO OVER doing anything right now! I wish I had more meeting to fill my time, because right now all I want to do is stare at the wall and count down the hours.
a honeycrisp apple
Li'l Sphere calls those "candy apples" because they taste so damn good. He's actually turned down candy for one.

If I get the jacket, do I have to take the ascot too?
