Pile o' Comics

So I've got a pile of comics from my last trip to the shop, and most of them are truly noteworthy.

I will review them. Or at least some of them. Tomorrow is Saturday. I will earnestly strive to get at least one review up.

I will also endeavor to bring my primary computer back to life.

It's strange, but I feel like podcasting. Haven't recorded in months, but the urge is still there, and I don't know why.

Here's my dilemma: I always feel like reviewing anything is such a massive copout. "No one loves a critic." I always get done with a review or podcast and think: "Wow, I should have just created my own product instead of reviewing that guy's stuff."

It's much easier to analyze than to solder your own thought-stuff into a working circuitboard.

My satellite script has been creeping back out of my subconscious, which means it's going to keep bugging me until it's written down. I just need to get the stupid script done. It's like getting a reminder from your dentist. You hate the stupid reminders, but you'll feel better after you go.

I'll do at least one review though. I like writing them. Once my stupid computer is back, I'm considering more podcasts.

Have a good one. If you're standing in line for the PS3 right, I officially disown you from my tiny circle of loved ones.

Adios.

Helpful Bonus Hints, You MORONS.

A few nuggets of joy, looking over my CA voting guide.

Special Bonus Tips for all California State Politicians:

- Your position must not contain any spelling or grammatical errors, either in the handbook or on any voter info websites (Republicans, I'm looking at you).

- Your platform statement should be longer than eight words (Libertarians, Peace and Freedom Party, American Independent Party... Seriously, it's like you guys slept in and had 30 seconds to write something).

- Use of all caps does not portray urgency, it portrays desperation (Peace and Freedom party again).

- "California must never be like Ohio or Florida." Thanks for that cautionary opening line from the Democrats (SecState statement). Opening line. I swear. Words to live by. Everybody, let's be careful out there. Morons.

- There's no way in hell I'm visiting your Myspace page. I'll open that sucker up, and you'll have a John Mellencamp MP3 embedded, I just know it. You're not fooling me. That, and pictures of you with aviator sunglasses. (American Independent Party)

Let's be careful out there.

We could turn into another state if we're not careful. Like Chicago, or something.
