  1. Well that’s a pretty damn good question! Another reminder that Chuck isn’t stupid.

  2. Dr. Norman (not a real doctor)

    Corpo sponsored snuff films … no surprise there. I wonder what voice over model they use – dispassionate wildlife commentator or enthusiastic conservationist. Or maybe Nascar ?

538 – Astute Paranoia

Oscar was probably hoping Chuck would talk him down from his suspicions, not escalate them.

We're close to the end of this episode/issue, just a matter of figuring whether the final page will be next Wednesday the 18th or we'll put it up for Xmas. We'll try to drop a notice here and on Facebook once we figure that out, but we definitely want to post it before the New Year.

Well, 2020, Thanks for that…

I feel a bit like an oracle. Remember how we decided to take this week off for, among other reasons, just “general stress relief“? Well, 2020 was not having any of that! I’m an oracle insofar as that if we didn’t plan to take this week off, we probably would have had to anyhow. I’m also an Oracle, capital O, insofar as the Ancient Greek tradition of those nutty ladies at Delphi prophesying the future, usually with a side helping of doom. Our cat is currently laid up at the animal hospital suffering from kidney failure and a persistent bacterial infection. She’s been there for a few days now while they get fluids and antibiotics into her and wait for culture results. Meanwhile I got the news this morning that my dad is laid up at the human ER, also with kidney issues. In both cases, Dawn and I would like to send this message to 2020: thanks but no thanks, could you not? Anyhow, positive thoughts in both cases are certainly welcome. So much for the stress relief, but at least we were able to focus entirely on the emergencies at hand.
