... ::bites tongue:: ...

so i'm reading Neil Gaiman's Sandman tonight ("Preludes & Nocturnes", specifically) and i encounter the coolest line ever. at 1:38am, 1 April 2006, i read:
~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Graphical Panel (http://salaam-alaykum.net/pictures/tmp2/1.38am.jpg)
~ ~ ~ ~ ~
unintentionally, accidentally, unforeseeably -- the first time i read the strip, i'm literally only 37 minutes off, out of the entire *year*. perhaps neil gaiman is my own personal nostradamus...

so tonight, for shits -- and, admittedly, for giggles -- i ordered one bourbon, one scotch and one beer while playing pool at the clubhouse.

and yes, that does make me badass.

Lookee what I can do! Son of a fucking...

First off, Bill Amend rocks -- check out today's Foxtrot. (Do that first, then keep reading.)

It gets even better. Those bytes in his soup?

Secondly, check out this blurb, Unintentionally Geeky Joke in Apple's Share Price:

Unless you're the sort of person who immediately recognized why the folks at Google originally sought to raise $2,718,281,828 in its IPO, you might want to just pass over this story. A reporter at News.com noticed an extremely unintentional inside joke with Apple's closing share price today. On the very day the company officially announced its first Intel-based product, Apple's stock price closed at $80.86. If you don't get it, it's time to read up on your computer history. No, there is no way at all that this was intentional. However, that doesn't make it any less amusing.

Granted, it's old. But it's also fucking shweet, so I figure it balances out. :-P

Edit 1: Kinko's wouldn't print an unmodified Jose Cuervo label, so I had some Photoshop fun. Note the face at the center of the seal in the lower left corner... ::grins::

Edit 2: Your turn, Sonja. ;-)

So Jess got 2 tickets for my birthday - to go see Trans-Siberian Orchestra's Christmas concert - this Monday in Seattle.

K.F.A. :-D
