Whew, this comic was a long time in the making. I started on one computer, passed it over to my friend V.J. for some shading while I moved and then finished it up on my new laptop. Still, I think my art is getting a little better. More to the point, am I the only [...]

Happy President’s day! If you’re a tad bit discouraged (as I am), cheer up! You’re in good company. It may not actually be a career path, but it is becoming trendy. I’m actually not overly discouraged, just having a hard time finding something that’s a step up instead of merely a horizontal transfer to something [...]

Apple is infamous (at least to me) for its shiny and expensive toys. With the exception of the original iPod, I haven’t really been wowed by their recent products.

Bernanke jumped at the chance to assist the market deterioration and announced “[we] need to tighten financial conditions by raising short-term interest rates.” Equities were almost universally lower as traders digested this news at the pub.

When talking with friends on the phone, I amuse myself by filling in any information I don’t have with something incriminating. The comic should be read vertically with my friend’s conversation being the bottom part and my own on the top. It’s amazing how people will use the same technology for different things. I might [...]

Amazon took the offensive today launching a series of attacks against Apple’s iPad factories. The majority of these attacks were stunted by Apple’s iForceField technology. Amazon acquired the weaponry and munitions from Taiwan which had previously bought them from the US. Analysts say it is unclear why China tried to prevent this earlier weapons sale. [...]

Market Jitters caused a slight decrease in the Dow Jones (-194) today as several revelations from the market makers gave traders pause. Bernanke revealed that the Federal Reserve has been selling treasury bonds and using proceeds to purchase Pokemon trading cards as “the best returning asset of this generation.” Major indexes were flat on this [...]
