so…merry monday after christmas. i hope everyone had a safe and enjoyable holiday. or a dangerous one that you were able to live through unscathed. whichever works for you. it snowed like crazy down around these parts (ben took pictures), so i didn't even dig my car out until christmas eve, at which point brooksie and i helped each other with the monumental task.

after all that work, i drove out to owensboro to spend the holiday with the girl and her family. the roads were horrible. it took me two hours to get to e-town, which is only a 30 mile drive. nothing like driving 15 mph on the interstate, bumper to bumper. good times. but the fun didn't really start until i got off of i-65 and onto the western kentucky parkway. from there until owensboro…solid sheet of ice. ahhh…the joy of it all.

but the girl got me america (the book). so it was all completely worth it. i love that daily show. love it.

stumbled upon this awesome article while reading through some glen friedman links to pass on to a friend here at work. photos by friedman, words by ian sevonius of the late, great make-up.

penny arcade ran a pretty funny christmas story starring everyone's favorite elder god, cthulhu.

with that, i'm gonna get back to work…
