And there is a lot to share.

Funnies for the Morning
I didn't get to read yesterday's Pearl Before Swine until this morning.

It's not as funny as this one, but Pastis still works the pun for everything he can. I love it.

Cool Device - Horrible Name
The iPad looks fantastic. I certainly would love to get one. What I find most appealing is being able to have music and books together in one device.

However I don't know how I'm going to get over the horrible name Apple chose for the device, especially after someone pulled this Mad TV skit out of the archives.




Why couldn't they have called it iSlate or iTablet or Kindle-killer.

Oh well.

Jay vs. Conan: All You Need To Know
Over the last few weeks there has been a lot of stories concerning NBC's bungled handling of their two night-time talk show hosts.

Of everything I've read or seen, this Taiwanese CGI news cartoon does the best of summing everything up.

Bent Objects
Terry Border is a very creative man with a deliciously off-center sense of humor.

I want a print of one of these photos for myself.

Heather Won't Admit It Out Loud
But I know that this is what she is thinking.


Especially after the last four weeks - were she was baking something practically every night in preparation of a Christmas party, get-together, or holiday dinner.

Mark Your Calendars
You'll want to remember the day Ziggy finally wore pants.



Thank you, Mr. Pastis, for making the world a better place.

Preach It!

Pearls Before Swine get's it right. Ziggy is just wrong.

Great Way To Start The Morning
Don't know why they painted it. Don't care. I think it's fantastic.

Robocop on a unicorn

I'd buy that for a dollar.

That Ain't a Chicago 'Stache
Entertainment Weekly has a preview of Hugh Jackman and Danial Craig from the new Broadway play that they are debuting in this September. The play is called Steady Rain and is about two Chicago policemen.

the mustache worn by 3 out of 4 Chicago copsWolverine and James Bond caused a stir here in Chicago about a month back when they dropped in un-announced to tour some police stations and other typical Chicago cop hangouts to get a little background research done. Considering that they are an Aussie and Brit portraying Chicago police officers, it was probably helpful to see how good Midwestern cops handle themselves.

From the photo EW publishes, it's obvious that one of the things that Mr. Craig noticed was the walrus mustache that is so popular with Chicago's finest (see a fine example at the right). Unfortunately, I think Mr. Craig should have taken a few more photos for reference. Instead of sporting a walrus 'stache he ended up with some form of cheesy porn 'stache that looks like he used this website for reference.

Dude, even James Bond can't make that stache look good
Dude, that ain't a Chicago 'stache.
