30Jul02 (Monthenor): Have I mentioned lately how much I hate drawing buildings?

I got such a positive response from my big-ass post last time that I thought I'd give you all an update on my incompetence. When the same exact brekkist you've eaten for the past two weeks suddenly tastes different, and you have a choice between blaming the raisin bran or blaming the milk, blame the milk. Raisin bran doesn't go bad...not THAT bad, anyway. I didn't figure that out until I was almost done with brekkist and could see the tiny granules of milk that had adhered to my bowl. And the scary thing is, I didn't really mind the taste up until then. I guess Food Satan was whispering in my ear, because I kept thinking, "Boy, that tastes weird. Weird...but not entirely unpleasant."

Thank Gord I can't ruin bacon.

Food Satan will have his way with you yet, oh ye of easily-manipulated taste buds. What will you do then, when your bacon fails you?! You shall weep in the streets with the rest of the infidels, crying, "Bacon, why hast thou forsaken us?" Then where shall you turn? Not to me; nay, for you shall find no mercy here, for I shall proclaim, "Your bacon is dead, and you have killed it! And it was already dead to begin with!" Then pigs will rule the earth, just like in that book, and they'll be enterprising little porkers too. Probably do a better job of hiding their accounting voodoo. No auditor's going to dig around in literal muck for some ledger. PorkGods Inc. will quickly rise to supremacy on the NYSE. Course they could be listed on NASDAQ. Really depends on what kinds of investors they cater to.

Would anyone like to buy me a PowerBook? How about an iBook? Or this, buy me this! It's not even on sale yet, and I nearly had to put on different pants when I saw just the front. I don't know if it's made of Monthenor's Shiny Inc. goods or injection molded crack or simple polycarbonate plastic and magnesium frame... I just know that I was meant to love it for the rest of my life. Or its life. Or until I can purchase contacts as my primary computer display. Umm, sweet multilayered reality.

Oh, and Monty, the speech bubbles are very nice. They're still jaggy, but, you know, if that's all the Gimp can offer you... *snicker* When you're ready to use a real graphics program, let me know. Oh, and I don't mean Paint either, although you can do evil things with it.
