Alright, alright. I'll admit to goofing off here. No, Fight Club is not officially based on Calvin and Hobbes. I do, however, have a great deal of evidence to support my thesis, but this is George you're talking to. You can't take George seriously. But until someone can prove that the main...

Fight Club! Thank you. That was driving me crazy trying to remember it. Anyway, back on topic. My local paper has pretty lousy comics, but I liked Beetle Bailey and Hagar as a kid, and Far Side and Bloom County as a teen-ager.

No, really! It was a pretty good movie, if controversial and self consciously artsy at times. Wish I could remember the name of it. A little help here, Richard?

Also, Hobbes' name was changed to Tyler Durden.

Anyone ever see that live-action Calvin and Hobbes movie from the late '90s? The one with the grown up Calvin? Turns out his "imagination" was actually a deep seated mental disorder that was never noticed by his neglectful parents. Job pressure in his 30s cause the Hobbes persona to re-emerge...

Spatchcock is one of my favorite "almost dirty" words.

Owls are lovely creatures, vicious predators that look like toasted marshmallows; a flying pillow stuffed with death and hate.

Charles, A few things to bear in mind: 1. You're younger than you feel. 2. You're better looking than you admit. 3. All the little things your ex didn't like about you will make you fascinating to the next gal who comes along. Don't look at this as a failure. It's just part of the book of your...

Now I'm really looking forward to hearing his response to all of this hoopla.

I think it was called "The Thermodynamics of Pipe Smoking". No time to Google it right now but I'll see if I can find it over the weekend.

Pics or it didn't happen.

My car's not very comfortable. Can I borrow one from you guys?

If that place exists, it's also: 4. not in Michigan.

To mis-quote Douglas Adams, it's almost, but not quite, completely unlike cricket.

Next time, try making the perfect firewood. If you mess up you'll get a good pipe for your troubles.

I'm not so sure about that, Stick. My Nightcap's been tasting a bit off ever since we entered daylight saving time on Sunday.

There are these two identical tabbys that have been hanging around my house lately. I call them Thing1 and Thing2. Recently, a smaller grey and white fellow has joined the party, but he always seems to show up late. I'll come out my door and the Things will glare at me and run off, then a minute...

I'm just barely old enough to remember the Rainbow Line, when Amtrak was using old coaches from various consolidated passenger lines. I was really little then and would need a porter or conductor to hold my hand crossing between cars because none of them quite fit together properly.

These guys nailed it. The "all day smoke" is just the one you would want to smoke all day. On the other hand, I think I see a niche market for some specific "time of day" tobacco's. How about a "waiting at the tire shop" smoke? Or a tree stand blend with extra deer tongue? An aromatic bathroom...

I'm just trying to keep Monbla from wandering off to bother Kyle.
