[bioshocked]



So after hearing about the street date breakage for Bioshock at Toys R Us, I dutifully drove myself there immediately after work, but to no avail , the little old woman was wise to my tricks. She even mumbled somethin to herself bout "all these fool youngins stealin my raspberries off my raspberry bush" or something to that extent.

ok that parts made up, but still, she wouldn't let me have a bioshock. jerkbag.

I think I may be out of town this weekend, and thusly unavailable to post on friday, so I will give you a double dosage today. I hope its not too much for ya.

bi-mon-sci-fi-con



Ahhh, the comic con went well, I spent 2 luxurious days in the trenches with my fellow nerdlings, pawing over the 5 dollar graphic novels and the 50 cent back issues. It was glorious! I also purchased this:
A kickass statue of luke, which is currently guarding the area above my television.

Sometimes I wonder if my future spawn will have the same love and interests as me. If not, I bet that whore wife of mine was screwing Brett Favre... or something.

[not another wii pun]


So yesterday I was at best buy to pick up hot fuzz on dvd... when all the sudden.. a little white box in the Wii section? could it be?!

Yes it was, and now I own a Wii. I was never motivated enough to go to a store early or wait in lines, but I have always promised myself that I would buy a Wii whenever the opportunity presented itself.

I purchased the legend of zelda, and the resident evil 4 remake. Oh man am I ever pumped.

I havent actually played it yet, im going to go put it all together right now!

The comic today, well I got to thinking what if you just used halo 2 like a session with a psychiatrist?

[illinois is way cooler]




Phew! hello, hello, I am back indeed. The vacation was nice, it was very warm and humid, the girls wore very little.

Warped tour was good, Alkaline Trio played a good set, but for me Pepper stole the show. I haven't seen such actual excitement and energy in a band since I first saw Lucky Boys Confusion back in college. It was really amazing actually.

I am getting very excited for the annual Chicago Comic Con, aka Wizard World 07. I will be going both Saturday and Sunday, it should be amazing. Although it seems to me we in Chicago get the shaft when it comes to video game tie ins. I know PA was at the San Diego con, but I don't think they are making it to the Chicago one. Don't the PA fellas like live in Maine or something? Chicago's closer than San Diego guys, come on. I want me a sketch of fruit fucker prime.

Also I am going to be kinkos-ing a few ashcans of Ninja Ken and randomly putting them in piles about the con on Saturday. You know those big tables outside the front doors? I'm gonna put some there, and then wherever else I see fit. I don't know if this is necessarily legal, but if you read this and you're going to the Chicago Con, keep your eyes out for Ninja Ken- he might be lurking in trash cans all around you!

I also hear that the final issue in the permanently hiatus'd comic Scud may be making an appearance soon. I really hope Rob Schrab finishes it, Scud was what gave me my second renaissance of reading comic books. (The first being the original TMNT)

See, two comics for you today! That's how much I care. And while I have never discovered a hidden trunk of perverted photoshopped pictures of myself, I have certain inklings. And they are just filthy inklings, they are.

[vacation and stuff]


Hey hey hey, it's my last day of work for a bit! I will be off for vacation (thats PTO for you office types) for a weekish. Because of this I will not be able to post for a little, but don't worry. I got things bubbling in my head, and Ninja Ken shall return!!!

Tomorrow I am also going to warped tour. Am I excited? Yes and No. I am excited because Alkaline Trio, Big D and the Kids Table, and Pepper will be there this year. I am not excited because 80% of the people there will be 15 year old kids wearing black eyeliner. But oh well, you take the good with the bad, and hopefully it will be worth it.

Tonight I will be heading to the 10:40 showing of The Simpsons movie, I have heard rather "meh" reviews being bandied about, but I mean how can one not see it?

Oh yeah, and in this comic Dante is all about the butthole pleasures. B-B-B-Butthole? hehehe

[trouble in 3s]


I will now discuss 3 events.

1. The new guy at work takes my favorite spot every morning, and parks over the line, also making it impossible to park in my second favorite spot. I hate him like people who are allergic to peanuts hate dieing from eating peanuts.

2. I washed my pants last night only to have a large black spider jump out from them this morning as I was going to put them on. I managed to defeat the terrible beast, but for the rest of the day I could not help but imagine his hairy little body running up and down my legs. It was a long day.

3. The other day I accidentally lathered up my bar soap, then directly applied it to my hair and shampooed with it. And unlike the previous two events, this actually made my hair look freakin sweet for the rest of the day. The ladies swooned.

Ok and onto the comic. Lets face at, at some point for everyone porn just isn't that interesting anymore. Ken and Ray have reached that point.

[its not getting any better]


So I finished up Apathy. And I must in all honesty say it had the most satisfying conclusion to any book I have ever read, ever. It was all wrapped up in a nice little package that melted in my mouth, not in my hand.

I read the 2nd issue of World War Hulk, and was generally disappointed in the art. Normally I am a huge fan of Romita, but that issue... whew boy, it did not look good.

I read about the ending of the new Harry Potter book, and wow, did it take her any more than 30 seconds to think that up? I am pretty sure I saw that exact thing happen on an episode of Muppet Babies (a show which I hold near and dear to my heart). Bravo lady, you successfully sold a bajillion books rehashing everything that had been previously done. I applaud your success.

And the comic today? Lets just say that summer sucks even more today than 3 days ago... and it really sucked then.
