Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Onerous task so far today - paying for my surgeon. Thankfully I have my Health Savings account card so I don't have to go through the pay/reimburse loop.

Tommy - those pictures are fabulous.

Penis museum comics are also great.

My son came home for lunch and he is driving me nuts. Go back to school, child.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

the comic Scandinavia and the world explains it well

I adore that comic. Especially the Finland avatar. [link]

I don't actually have a puffer coat. I probably should get one. This sudden urge to go to Macy's to browse may have something to do with my inbox making my eye twitch.

This is the coat I got in post-holiday sales. I'm loving it. [link]

(Also, Land's End just put a bunch of their swimsuits on sale, if anyone is gearing up for warmer climes.)

Our wings are not tired.

Very nice pictures, tommyrot!

The other links must wait until I get a moment's break.

Speaking of Land's End, did you know the State Street Sears is closing? [link] I have no idea how they expected to do business when they close at 6pm, even through the holiday shopping season. But... there should be come clearance sales coming up.
