Comics!

There’s only been a few web comics I used to read with any regularity, but since Ellie on Planet X has gone live I’m discovering new ones (to me) all the time. Here’s a handful that I think are the cream of the crop. Some have been around for a long time, some are new, some well known, others not so much, and a couple are even newspaper strips! There’s more, but I’ll save those for another day. Give these a check-out and maybe they’ll become your favorites too.

Just a note that not all are family friendly!

Blizzard 2011

The Strang Institute didn’t escape today’s snowfall that hit the Midwest U.S. (somebody — not saying who — forgot to turn on the Anti-Climate Electro-Bubble). Everyone was pretty crabby when they showed up for work and the Institute garden, where we usually eat lunch, wasn’t the balmy seventy-six degrees it normally is. I thought it looked nice, but then I didn’t have to shovel.

Here’s a view from the side entrance. It’s normally green all year round on this side of the fence.

This is Bijou, the Institute mascot, braving the weather. The sun peeked out for a bit and the two of us had a romp in the snow.
