The Rhetorician and the Medivalist.



Back to Back Medievalists!  What other site can give you that awesome pairing?  What other blog reaches for the upper tippy-top echelons of (capital A) AWESOMENESS?!

Well, this one does:  daveandbethany.com

Do you ever meet a person at a party and think, "Why don't we already know each other? It feels like we should have been pals from way back."

Last weekend we attended a great party where I met Bethany and the husband met Dave, independently I might add.  When we got back to the car it dawned on us that these folks were married, had created a legendary super team, a beautiful little baby, and a rockin' blog.  So as my first ever non self-promoting link I have offered up linkage to their blog.

Enjoy.

Old comic about fish while you wait...



I feel terrible about making folks wait so long for a new comic, but the next death story is completely freakin' awesome and I have been taking my sweet time.  

So in the interim I offer you an older comic from years ago about my first fishing trip with my Moma.  I love writing about my Mom because her life is full of adventure and fun (and work).  I always worry about depicting her in two dimensions since she is a complicated lady, but I love her a whole bunch and I hope that my clumsy efforts will be sufficient.

I am a big freaking baby when it comes to killing animals (bugs included) for any reason, even to alleviate suffering.  Just yesterday I saw a very small animal in on the highway and it was clearly beyond saving.  I had time to aim for it with the car but I couldn't  make myself swerve.  My Mom would've done something more helpful.  

Which is why she has five rescued dogs, and I have one cat...which she rescued for me.

So much to do before I go.



This is an urgent request. If you have ever read my comics please post a response to this question:
What do you want (or need) to do before you die?

Ride a motorcycle?
Become a parent?
Get published?
Ask someone to marry you?

I am compiling a list for a interactive game on the main site.  Everybody (alive) is eligible to play!  So...what is on your list?

Congrats to Erik and Patty!




These fine folks bought their first house today and it couldn't have happened to a nicer (or more financially responsible) pair of folks. Good job homeowners...also congrats on not murdering each other in the process!
