By the way: In case you’ve simmered down over the female-cartoonist-censorship-discrimination, I direct your attention to Mark Parisi’s strip from yesterday on the other comics site.
Brilliant mash up of Bee Gees / Pink Floyd on the FB. But as I watched and listened, I thought how odd that someone would link songs from what I remember as being a generation apart. Turns out Stayin’ Alive came out in ‘77 and Another Brick in the Wall in ‘79. Ain’t memory a fluid and malleable commodity?
At first I thought the Meebo bar was a cool idea, but now that I see it also randomly contains another place to put an advertisement I think it’s lame.
snails, or snail eggs, are good if they’re battered and deep fat fried. but what isn’t? i would eat a shoe if you deep fat fried it… even if @ottod’s foot was still in it.
i love the mash up of those songs - makes me want to boogie. i saw something like that once using a three dog night song with a twix commercial. not the same.
An ex-roommate of mine had a gardening book that suggested that the best way to eliminate snails from the garden was to develop a taste for them. (That way there are never enough.)
As an aside, I don’t pay a lot of attention to who does what in Six Chix but I do look forward to Saturday’s art work. I’m sure that Piro’s little “w” shaped tits probably has a lot to do with that because I have mixed reactions to her philosophical foundations.
Get well soon, Mz T! I am just getting over a bout with pneumonia. Not fun at all, I promise you. Hope yours is more like a 24-hour “bug” that only lasts for 3 hours!!!
Hope you’re feeling better soon, T. I took this opportunity to go over and see the latest at FAx. Keen. Especially liked “Where the heck is my Prince Charming!?”

I’ve never heard of snail caviar. Ew. I’ll stick with my Mac and Cheese.

I hate being told what I “should” (or “should not”) eat! So take your snail caviar and feed it to Cluck Cluck!

If you slug a beer, will it kill the taste?

I can only think of the Food Network and Travel Channel where they have those dreadful shows.

Teresa your childhood artwork rocks! And thematically, you were testing the bounds of abstract thought… I was probably busy eating boogers.
And the marquee is awesome - I bet Vlad’s mug would look good surrounded by those blinkies. Or Grace.

Of course, if you eat too many snail eggs, you won’t have room for haggis! Boy are you lucky!

To quote Edvard Munch:

Sounds like something the creator of FA would say, doesn’t it?
