Because I Can

For those of you who share cyber space with me you know I read web comics.  I habitually check some of the gem's I've discovered on the internet from the site www.topwebcomics.com There are some who I have sent links to to check out a few that I believe would interest you. Right now I want to talk about one of my all time favorites. 

A Girl and Her Fed

Now I ran across this comic and started reading it because of the strange type of art work it used. The main character didn't have any eyes, and not all the lines meet up on the black and grey sheet. The story then drew me  in because these nameless characters were involved in shenanigans that were funny and intelligent. Ya there are the typical low brow jokes, but the mixture of what the artist does is stunning. 

The art work has changed since then. Color, higher detailed sets as well as characters, but the mood and flow of the work hasn't changed. Politics, romance, cyborgs, and mutant marsupials...don't forget the ghosts. Sound bad? Naw its awesome!

Why I'm not a good role model...

I was surprised to discover that I was volunteered to supervise a group of church kids at a party...I have yet to be asked if I am free to do so...

During the time with 5 teenagers and my poor co-supervisor I learned somethings.
1. I don't miss high school even tho the drama flows just as deep irl
2. If cookies are promised I can censor myself (for a while or till I forget)
3. Large vocabularies can be used for evil.
4. Games where the point is to make up answers are how I became aware of the previous lines


This was learned by the board game Things...Example: Things that shouldn't be titles of children's books...I came up with:
My Funny Uncle Willy
Things Forks Go In
Drinks Under Sinks
Candy Behind Mirrors
Touches in the Dark


So the night wasn't a total bust...got more books to add to my already long reading list, free food, discovered a game losing webpage, and got to see my dog attack someone 5times bigger then her....and take them DOWN!
