For those out there who don’t read XKCD religiously, today’s home-run:
My favorite:
Though physics seems to
promise you a Richard
Feynman-like career,
the Wiki-page for
“Physics Major”
redirects to “ENGINEER”
Hey! I resemble that remark!

Now I’ve Got Another Webcomic to Read!
Dork Tower. Two of the latest strips:
This series goes back to January, 1997. I’ve got a lot of reading to do.
“Better Clench Up, Legolas.”
Just got back from seeing The Avengers.
Yes, Joss Whedon is my master now. I think he just wrote and directed the biggest movie of 2012. What a blast! If you like superhero movies at all, you’ll love this one. I’ll pay to see it again.
(Updated post title to reflect the actual line rather than my memory of it.)
May the Fourth…
…be with you.
A repost, but a good one!
Or the Next One…
Today’s User Friendly cartoon – a recycled one, as a matter of fact, but still funny and (unfortunately) accurate:
Recycling
Robb’s got a great meme going on the Republican bumpersticker format, but I’m not as creative or talented as he is. What I am good at is recycling other people’s ideas. Here’s one from the depths of 2009, done by Bubba of What Bubba Knows that pretty much says what Robb’s stickers say without using a single word:
Yeah, that about says it all.
Except the RINO should be fucking a map of the United States.
The OWS Philosophy In Action
Dr. Sarah “Stickwick Stapers” sent me a link to this video. I think it’s quite appropriate here the day before the Left “celebrates” Victims of Communism Day. Watch it all the way to the end for the payoff:

Tomorrow may illustrate an interesting variant on this behavior.
I Feel Better Now
You know, as a blogger, you’re just not sure if you’re reaching anyone unless you get some negative feedback from time to time.
I received an email this afternoon from one “Chris Carlsen” – no subject line, just two sentences of missive and a sigline:
Your(sic), sir, are a fucking idiot. Good day.
I replied:
Good to know you care! Don’t be a stranger. Keep in touch.
Kevin
I have no idea just what offended him enough to fire off, but hey, I must be doing something right!
Doggerel
Jim of the blog Smoke on the Water (where he doesn’t post much these days) has re-written the lyrics to that classic ditty How Much is That Doggie in the Window? and has allowed me to premier it here first at TSM:
How much is that doggie on the menu? (arf! arf!)The one with the chicken-fried-tailHow much is that doggie on the menu? (arf! arf!)I loves me a fried doggie tailOn Air Force One to IndonesiaVacationing far from my homeBut they’ll serve me dog, yes I’ll eat someI’ll chew it clear down to the boneHow much is that doggie on the menu?

Don’t blame me, I’m just the messenger!
Quote of the Day – Robin Williams Edition
Propofol, which nickname is “Milk of Amnesia.” Michael Jackson was taking Propofol to sleep, which is like doing chemotherapy because you’re tired of shaving your head.
I woke up from my heart surgery after propofol – I had the surgery in Cleveland – after propofol I woke up from the surgery and said “Where am I?” and they went “Cleveland!” and I went, WHY?
Seen here.
UPDATE: 8/11/14 – And Robin Williams has left us. Dammit.
