- Interesting the way the show Cheaters only targets poor people. Guess they don’t want to risk “busting” somebody with a lawyer, huh? #

- Have I reached that point? Are my guts too old and battered to handle fast food? Jack in the Box’s nacho cheeseburger seems to argue yes. #

- Herr Trigger!! #
- Ah, Portland rain. There you are. #
- Chainsaw swordfight! Chainsaw swordfight! CHAINSAW! SWORDFIGHT!! #
- @templesmith Are you talking about tobacco that goes in your nose, or those porno movies where they kill people? #
- @antonyjohnston Congratulations! #

- Dear Rock Band: How dare you give me 100% for singing Blink 182. How. Dare. You. #
- @alexgetchell With all due respect, you’re an idiot. #
- @alexgetchell Yes, and if only the Clash were more like Fall Out Boy. #

- @jzellis I’ve tried Celtx. It’s a good app, but I hate that you can’t open .fdr files. Importing an existing script is an all day affair. #
- @jzellis All of Linux is free, provided your time is worth nothing. #
- @jzellis I’ll take Ubuntu over Windows, sure. Just annoying that you can’t get Final Draft or CS for it. Mac-OS FTW. #

- It’s a good question. How CAN I rep my hood if I go from a G to a gent? #
- Walked through leaves covered in sap. Now have sapfoot. This city is afraid of me. #
- Who the fuck is Russell Brand? Is this another one of those bullshit MTV, he’s-famous-cause-we-tell-you-he’s-famous things? #
- Demo-specific ads fascinate me: the trailer for BABYLON A.D. makes it obvious it’s a sci-fi film. The TV spot gives no indication whatsoever #
- @jzellis Um… because you can’t run Final Draft on it? #
- So the Bigfoot guys refused to produce the body, say where it is or where they found it, or let primatologists examine the thing. Yeaaaah. #

- Quit my dayjob. I now make my living entirely through writing and freelance web development. Go me! #
- On a related note, if you or someone you love needs a website built, holla atcha boy. #
- A lovely breakfast. Although that is NOT what biscuits & gravy is supposed to taste like. Not at all. #
- @alexgetchell: Have a good flight, you two. #
- Water polo makes no sense to me. Although I like that they’re all wearing Cosmonaut helmets. #
- @antonyjohnston: I couldn’t find the “obscene gestures” option. Had to settle for speed-lines. http://tinyurl.com/5a9ynm #

- Still waiting for the locusts. Any day now. #
- @joekeatinge - Don’t you mean Guided by Voices? #
- It was that rare thing - a really good episode of “Quantum Leap.” Then Al started rapping. Fuck. #
- Pretty sure badminton was invented to cater to people who like tennis but a) hate running, and b) always hit the ball too hard. #
- Am also pretty sure the badminton commentators ran out of things to say and are now just reading shit off Wikipedia. #
- Last day begins. Bring on the awkwardness. #
- @bremxjones - Congrats! #
Giddy up, bitches!

Just a quick note: the Image Comics western anthology OUTLAW TERRITORY (in which I have a story with Turkish artist Melike Acar) is in the current issue of Previews and is now available for pre-order on Amazon. The book arrives in stores October 15th.
You’re going to like this one. There are some excellent stories in it from a group of very talented creators, many of whom are not even me. (I know!)
But seriously, folks. Grek Pak, Ivan Brandon, Christopher Mitten, Joe Kelly, Chris Moreno, Andy MacDonald, and like two dozen other people who are awesome — all doing stories about cowboys and shit. How cool is that?
Buying this book is the right thing to do, America. So do!
