His name is David... He likes to dance a-lot...

So two things in my life. Mikado and Spamalot. I am trying to get tickets to go to this insane broadway spectacular event. Not doing so well on that front I fear. I have finally remembered Peter's name. It is David. Peter/David is our director and I have not had much luck in remembering him or his name. Fun times.

On a different, but wholly more bitter note, in exactly the same way lemon is bitter, I have found a new past time. In recent times I have developed, due mainly to the need of escapism, a strange afliction. I need to copy web comics onto my computer. Yes, those elusive comics standing there for all to see: Penny-Arcade, VideoGame Cats, Least I Could Do, Ctrl+Alt+Del, PvP, Looking For Group, 8BitTheatre and oh so many more. I have made it my sole task of copying all of these comics into my computer. This is not as simple as you would think. It is not simply clicking Save As and copying the file into a folder. No sirreee. I must copy and paste the file name in there as well, changing any ? or " or : into . and ' and - . Also placing a - in between the date and the title of the piece.

Needless to say, this is an extremely time consuming activity. But you can drown yourself in the endless tedium of click, cut, click, paste, click click, next page, repeat. So far I have downloaded ALL of PA (it started in 1998 and is still going.) and LFG and VGcats. Of course, I have so much more to do, and I must always keep revisiting the "already done" sites, as they are all still updating. It is a constant sea of endless comic strips. I like it a lot.

So if you ever need to relax and unwind, forget and not think, enter a zen garden of pure adulterated happiness... that is how its done.
