I Felt The Earth Move

04.29.2003

Today's CamToon Tuesday is delayed until later tonight, because I forgot to upload the pictures from home.

This morning around 4:00 I felt the house rumble. My first thought was that it was thunder. After not hearing any rain, I was confused, but not so confused that I didn't fall back to sleep.

This morning I learned that the thunder I heard was really a 4.9 earthquake. Much like when a tornado rips through the area, it seems that mobile homes were the hardest hit.

The part that I like is that our earthquake has been given a name by the US Geological Survey: "teak".

Tracking Saddam

04.28.2003

I saw on the news today that this is Saddam's 65th birthday (if he's still alive). I was thinking, the best way to capture him would be to find out how many birthday cakes havebeen ordered with 65 candles! I'm sure it's a lot, but you could narrow it down pretty quick - I'm sure there's some secret government agency that keeps track of foreign dictators favorite flavor of cake. Once we find the right cake, just switch the candles with sticks of dynamite, as featured on many a Loony Toon, and Blammo!, all problems aken care of.

ResGen Announcements

04.25.2003

I was going to put something deep and thoughtful about how a year ago today it was announced that ResGen would be closing, but it's hard to put into words all the thoughts and emotions that it brings up.

Jer does a good job putting it into words.

Super Cooties

04.24.2003

Even though I tried to avoid it by staying at home the first part of last week, it seems Jer has caught my bug and progressed to the fever stage. I tried to keep it to myself. I stayed at homeand hacked and coughed and layed there while the bed spun - my sure sign of a fever. But Jer just has to catch my cooties. This is the same man who had perfect attendence at school up until our senior year. He used to never get sick! I guess now I can't cough around him without giving him the flu. I feel so ashamed.

Camtoon Tuesday

04.22.2003

Week #3 of a new camtoon finds us on the verge of some major chair wacking. I promise. It's coming.

It also seems that Jer has caught my cooties. I'll bet he's really mad at me. He's not talking to me, and he's only a foot away. I wonder if there's a way for me to make it up to him?

Afternoon Update - Jer has placed some sort ofcurse on me that has opened up my sinuses something fierce. Damn him and his sinus cursory ways!
