UPDATING OCCASIONALLY (FOR NOW)

  1. “Oh, *that* kind of grave robbing? Lead on, Chuck!” 😈

  2. Dr. Norman (not a real doctor)

    What? I say “What”?

  3. Heh, this is going to be fun. Tradition says you need to drink at least one bottle of MD 20/20 before going to the graveyard.

  4. At first I was thinking of something like a potato battery … nope!

  5. If you take a dead “D” cell battery, take out the carbon rod from the center, cut a strip of galvanized sheet metal about an inch (2.7 centimeters), take a small jar for canning, suspend the rod in the center and the strip on the side, pour in drain cleaner, you’ll get 1.2 to 1.4 volts DC. 10 of those connected to an inverter will give you 120 VAC at 0.5 amps. Do NOT keep them in the same area you live in however, the fumes will burn your lungs. Just something I learned in chem class in high school. You’d have to top-up the jars every few days, however. Any type of acid will work, even salt water. I think the teacher was a survivalist…

  6. Scheffler, Hovland and Conners Share the Lead at P.G.A. Championship
    Jordan Spieth, who needs a victory at Oak Hill to complete the career Grand Slam, and Justin Thomas, who won last year’s tournament, just made the cut at five over.

Seeing shadows…

Groundhog Day isn’t until next February but here Dawn and I are, preparing to squint our way back into the metaphorical daylight after a long hibernation. I mean technically we started that earlier by getting a new comic posted back in November, but here today is another page! And then Friday we’ll be rolling out and setting up a convention booth again at long last for Season’s Screamings. I think we still have everything. I think it still works. I hope we remember how to put our banner up. Will we see our shadows, or will we scurry back into our hole for six more weeks of winter? See, now, even my metaphors are rusty. Here comes the nerd brigade in my head with corrections… – Um, actually, it will be December 17 this Friday and Winter in the Northern Hemisphere in 2021 does not begin until the solstice on December 21st. – Um, actually, the groundhog tradition states that if the groundhog sees its shadow it will retreat to its den and Winter weather will linger, while if it does not see its shadow then an early Spring is forecast. – Um, actually, rodents have no influence on global weather patterns and so this is all superstitious nonsense regardless. But you know, I feel like the tentative squinting will at least be a fact. Luckily we don’t have to be there for setup until noon and the convention is happening right in our backyard… okay, not quite that close but close enough that a run back to our place for anything forgotten is not out of the question. Our booth placement doesn’t seem like the best and we don’t know who our neighbors will be, but as far as getting back into the pool this is not the deep end. There, that metaphor was better. Enjoy the comic, and if we don’t see any of you this weekend then hopefully we’ll see you next year!
