The Joshua Tree

Battlestar Galactica:
Season 2.2

The second half of season 2 of Battlestar Galactica comes
out on September 19. This box set will have many great
episodes. It has the conclusion of the mid series cliff
hanger (between Galactica and Pegasus). We will learn
about the existence of the Resurrection Ship and also get
a deeper look into the darker side of humanity with the
introduction of the black market episode and episode with
Cloud 9 being held captive. This half of the season we also
see one of the main characters die. Most importantly, we
learn about the birth of the Cylon/Human hybrid baby and
end on a season cliffhanger with future of humanity looking
very bleak. With season 3 starting in October, this is a
great box set to get you caught back up or refreshed for
the series.

Silent Kimbly

Silent Kimbly is a great webcomic for all ages. It contrasts many of
the webcomics that I currently read in that Ryan Sias does a great
job appealing to both adults and children with his cartoon art and his
great use of work play. Sias is currently selling a book right now on
his website, which he will sign for you at no extra cost. At $14, this
book is a steal for anyone that loves children books. It contains 100
of Sias’s personal favorite Kimbly comics. I eagerly read through it
as soon as I received it. I have also read it to my 3 year old niece,
Genesis, and she loved it. If you enjoy art Dr. Suess style art
and/or are a fan of puns and word play, definitely give this comic a
look.

September 11, 2006

I hate peddlers! They stop you in front of Walmart and then make you feel like crap if you don't
buy their magazines. One guy stopped me today and told me it was "bad karma" to lie to him
and say I didn't have money to buy his magazines. I didn't have money to buy magazines! I
needed toilet paper, dangit! (Although I suppose some of those magazines are equivalent to
toilet paper.) I though about showing him my bank statement and my receipts to prove to him
that I didn't have money. But then I realized, he's just a bum selling magazines because he's
too lazy to get a real job, and I didn't feel so bad about it anymore.
