This is what I looked like 12 years ago
According to the Internet Archive, this is what my website (and I) looked like back in 2004. That was the year I met crazy English girl.
Though to be fair, the picture was taken at least 2 years prior, when I was living near UofM and not Snowdon – probably around the time of crazy German girl.
Mad world
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for the daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head I wanna drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kind of funny
I find it kind of sad
The dreams in which I’m dying are the best I’ve ever had
I find it hard to tell you,
I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it’s a very, very
Mad world, mad world

Lacking in money and wall space
There’s a new Todd White collection out, and I’d love to get a print of this. Unfortunately, our art budget has gone the way of the dodo and, besides, we’re out of wall space.
He’s my responsibility

Café des bouchers
Lunch today was at a café that’s been operating since the 1940’s, just 5 minutes from the office. I’ll need to take Katy there, cause the meat is dang good!
In need of a bit of belief today
If anybody needs me, I’ll be under my desk
Donald and Hobbes
Behold the Donald and Hobbes subreddit, which superimposes Trump’s face on our beloved Calvin, and drops in text inspired by the Republican presidential candidate, bringing a little bit of humour to dark times.

The joy of the thing is that Calvin’s dialogue is only edited slightly, or not at all, leaving something that really does sound scarily Trump-ish. Calvin is way more tyrannical than I remember. But this is part of the fun: the rules on the subreddit state that “the strip you paste Trump’s head over has to contain dialogue that Trump might actually say. You can edit dialogue so Calvin’s name is missing or certain words (perhaps too intelligent for Donald) are gone. But just putting Trump’s head on Calvin acting like a kid is missing the point. Have fun and try not to think worse of Calvin. He’s only six. Trump’s going on 70 and still hasn’t grown up.”
