Free Comic Book Day!

Today, Saturday May 6, 2006, is Free Comic Book Day. The majority of comic book stores are particiating: use that URL to find a comic book shop near you, walk in with no money, and walk out with special introductory comic books written just for folks like you. These are NOT just superhero comic books, though those are included. You can expect things like sci-fi, fantasy, crime/noir, teen angst, manga, webcomics-to-print, whatever. Some places have a cap of how many free ones you can take. Some ask for donations to charities. But it's pretty cool, and gives you the chance to see what's out there, risk-free. You can usually browse the shop's free selections before picking one (or more), just don't read the whole thing, that's rude. Go!

And let me borrow them when you're done, I'm not sure if I'll get to a comic book shop myself. :(

My question is

how did a defendant with acknowledged retardation get put on death row?

Peeper Explained

The below webcomic totally is how Peeper acts around me and other people she likes! It's so cute, and so irritating... :-P



I'd call it a flock for her though. Maybe F should be my word of the day. Letter. She didn't let me sleep in this morning either.

Free Credit Report

Don't forget that once a year you can order your credit report for free from the three major credit monitoring companies, Transunion, Equifax, and Experian. You can get it online to view online through Annual Credit Report.com, or you can get a paper copy through the mail or by calling 1-877-322-8228.

I recommend you don't do the calling up version: the voice recognition thingie is pretty typical - not that good. Amusingly it got my last name spelling incorrect the first time, and then they simply recorded it for a human to review later, and the same thing started to happen with my pervious address so I gave up and hung up.

I'd like a paper copy mailed to me b/c my printer isn't the best, but I presume I can probably save a hardcopy of the online version to print later. Since my printer's dying, I can't do a paper request since there's a form I can't fill out to send. *sigh* I'll figure it out. For now, I needa go drive across the state.

There are reasons I worry about ever having kids.
