Say good night, Jane.

It turns out that I have more time for drawing than I expected ... my boss called me into his office last Friday and told me that it was my last day there.  I was expecting to stay one more month, but the upper management forced the department to cut back.  Well, I have a few prospects already, and a couple of them are even within driving distance of home!

I've never understood layoffs.  It's like having one of those ancient galley ships powered by a hundred guys rowing, and the captain saying, "You know, I bet we could go faster if we threw half our rowers overboard..."

A new comic I've discovered: Endtown by Aaron Neathery.  Follow the adventures of a young man named Al, in a post-apocalyptic future, when a few pockets of civilization survive.  Can Al make his way through this tortured world?  Can he manage a mutated girlfriend?  And can they find anything to eat besides @#$%&* beans?!
