Hey, it sure is a good thing I took my site back from Marq and then proceeded to not have time to write anything all week isn’t it? No, not really. Anyway, since all of this was done ahead of time, at least I can give you the week’s comics:

Hey everyone, PDR is back! I’m not going to murder Marq this time, because his takeover of the site was not a surprise. Instead I will just thank him for minding the place while I’ve been away, then I’ll complain for all the updates to the site ever not being done already.
Anyway, in New York, I got to pet a dog. More details may come later.
So, for two weekends in a row I have tried to see Captain America in movie form, but it has not worked out. And now it doesn’t seem to be playing on my side of town. I would not be surprised if the movie isn’t even around next weekend, so I may have missed my chance. Alas.
However, Kiiip and I did go see Fright Night tonight. I enjoyed it enough that I’ll give this movie Three and a Half Pieces of PDR’s Reviewing System Cake. I like to see vampires treated as threats individually instead of as being chumps mowed down en masse by an Action Hero like Blade or Buffy (though I like both Blade and Buffy, those are the examples I’m giving here). While this movie is still more action movie than horror movie, that’s what I expected from it, so that was okay. David Tennant was in here. I like that. There could have been more of him, but all in all, if you’re willing to enjoy this kind of movie, this is the kind of movie I think you’ll enjoy.
It is worth noting that apart from the two of us, there were four other people in the theatre. This breaks the low-times record previously set at six when Marq and I saw Tenacious D. Granted we went to an afternoon showing because Kiiip loves making me wake up early and this is kind of a night-time movie, but it still can’t be good to have six people in a theatre on any showing on an opening weekend.
A unicorn walks into a bar and the bartender looks up and says “Why the long face with a horn in it?”
So, the process of booking a flight seems to be done and I’ve had the hotel booked for like a month or something. I’m going back to NYC for a week starting on Halloween. I am pleased about that.
Haiku!
Hi, Outer Spaceman!
Have you come here to teach us?
No? Oh. Well. See ya.
In other news, for the sake of peanut-butter-and-banana sandwiches I have purchased a loaf of bread. This may be the first time I’ve bought one of these in my entire adult life. It’s possible maybe back when I lived with Marq or something I bought one or two for him, but in any case I have probably never bought a loaf of bread for myself. Let’s hope the sammiches are worth breaking that streak.
PDR just got home from one of those wedding things. This one was for his fellow Contains2man, Marq. The guy who programmed this website so that it blames him if it can’t find a page. Like this. This makes PDR the only Contains2 alumni who never did that wedding thing.
Haiku!
Marq did a wedding.
PDR bought no present.
‘Cause that’s how he rolls.
In other news, PDR has started bringing back his Shotgun Professor stories starting with the first one. I’ll probably put up one a month, and when if gets to the point where I left off before, hopefully I will pick it up again until I finish the story.
