I stole the line about money from an episode of House M.D., as the titular character is deriding his young Australian colleague. The coins do indeed have a picture of the sovereign on them, although the paper money has other[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
House
Film Critic
Few things in the world will get me to avoid a film faster than telling me that Will Farrell is in it. There are just some things that spell “bomb” faster than others. However, tastes change over the years. In[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Digital Audio Tape
This joke was new, once upon a time. I’m not sure how many of my readers may remember when DAT recordings were part of the public market. My dad had a DAT machine, which he used for recording and mixing[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Seeking the Cure

Today’s strip is dedicated to Rocket J. Squirrel and Bullwinkle Moose, whose never-ending attempt to pull a rabbit out of a top hat reflects this absolutely true incident. I am protective of my plushies, and they of me. Don’t insult[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I’m hoping that both Paramount and Robert Beltran will forgive my indulgence. I seem to recall this coming up in conversation with Jy L (who, as I’ve noted before, is not to be confused with J Lo), and that he[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Puns and Boondoggles
This is a real thing, although not many people know of it. (Maybe you didn’t want to know of it!) The film that I mention here is actually quite good and very informative. In its way, it’s even funny, as[…]↓ Read the rest of this entry…
