Poetry 2 by Devlin 10-02-02

"High Flight" by John Gillespie Magee Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds, and done a hundred things you have not dreamed of, wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there, I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung my eager craft through footless falls of air... Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace Where never lark, nor eer eagle flew-- And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod the high, untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of God. You touched my what now?

I feel everyone should be exposed to this poem at least once.

Class pictures, they're a bitch... by Devlin 10-02-02

Okay kid, just gimme a couple seconds to set-up and then we'll take your picture, and you can take that mask off, okay? I really don't think that's a good idea. Okay, here we go, you can take your mask off now. uh... okay, if you're sure... Okay, maybe that wasn't such a good idea...

I just made this so I could include that alien picture.

The Beating of Bongo by Devlin 10-02-02

Somehow, I always knew it would end this way...

Experimentation in single panel, or triptych formation.
:p

A Matter of Taste by Devlin 10-04-02

Okay, just so we're clear, I'm up for anything that seems at least semi-watchable. Ok, sure sure... how about "Porky's"? Maybe not. We could get "The Shawshank Redemption" or "The Apartment". Oh, look! They have "The General" on DVD! Black and white films suck. Maybe we should get "Last Action Hero", it has Arnold in it, it can't be bad! Maybe when I open my eyes he'll be gone... Ooh! Look Angie! They have "The Swarm" on VHS! We've got to rent it!

The sorry state of the average movie-goer.

Three new comics:

Based on a Semi-True Story by Devlin 10-04-02

So, my old nemesis, Mr. Computer... we meet again. This time I shall tame thee, foul beast of the electronic world! Okay, that didn't work. Maybe I should try and find that manual next time...

Lack of Motivation by Devlin 10-04-02

I've done it! I've created the world's first fully autonomous Robot! Most impressive, Dr. Tudemgud, but what is the Robot's purpose? .................

Too Much of a Good Thing... by Devlin 10-04-02

Now we must face the long dark of Moria... A wizard, is never late, Frodo Baggins. And nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to... The Ring was made in the fires of Mount Doom, and only there can it be unmade...

The second is probably my favorite of the three. It makes me laugh. :-p

Only two new comics this time:

Mistress of Disguise by Devlin 10-06-02

Hey! Marie? Where'd you go? Crap, he's still following me. Time to try a different tactic... Perfect, he'll never recognize me now. Hey, dude, did you see a hot chick come by here? I think she was wearing a vest or something... she had big knockers though. Uh... I think she jumped off that cliff over there...

Mistress of Disguise 2 by Devlin 10-08-02

Oh crap, he's coming back, I think I'll need a different disguise. Hey, Mac, I didn't see her off any cliff, you sure that's what you were talking about? Sorry, who were you talking to? Wha... but that guy... he was right here!
