Someone else is going to have to tell me what the hell is going on with my BuzzComix “vote for me” incentive sketch because I sure as hell can’t recall what was going through my mind as I drew it.
I suppose the same could be said about today’s comic. I don’t expect any of you to be up-to-date on the movie trailers and advertisements for kids films, but honest to God, there is a clip in the trailer for Agent Cody Banks: Destination London where we learn that Beanie Babies were developed by the CIA. At this point, a Beanie Baby dressed in a camouflage uniform lunges for some dude’s throat. It’s not a great joke to begin with, so it stands to reason the best I could come with was a lame pun to parody it with.
Is it just me, or has this been a pretty dull March for movies? There is absolutely nothing new in theaters that I want to see. What do people do when they aren’t watching movies? Read books? Talk to their family members?
Good news on the home front. It looks like Cami won’t be leaving for the Mega Mall on Saturday after all. She’s leaving Sunday and taking a day off on Monday. I recognize that’s an odd schedule to arrange, but I’m happy because Cami and I will have at least half of the weekend together. Now none of you need worry about me watching Schindler’s List alone in the dark, slitting my wrists afterward.
“But Tom! What about Sunday?” you may ask. Well, Amazon just delivered the third season of Futurama to my doorstep this week, so I will likely spend the Sabbath wallowing in its four-disc glory.
Keep checking the site today. I have a couple more messages I’m too lazy to type in at the moment.

Just had a few things I wanted to announce – site related? You know the drill.
First, say “Hi” to our two new advertisers – Awaken The Witch and The Third Half. Awaken The Witch is a resource for all of your witchy needs! Lots of stuff for sale and a forum to boot. The Third Half is an interesting web comic that has fun tweaking reality. Check them out!
Remember, we still have lots of space open for you guys to advertise on. The banner at the top of the page is a great purchase. It appears on every page and it’s only $50 for 30 days! That’s a lot of bang for your buck, trust me. Besides, what other web sites publish their ad rates up front like we do? We’re interested in your business!
Also don’t forget the column and banner pools closer to the bottom of the comic. People can toss their ads in there at any time and they’re guaranteed coverage because we sell them by the number of times they’ve been viewed. We don’t have any ads in the column pool right now, so you can get some concentrated exposure since you won’t be sharing the space with anyone else.
I also wanted to call attention to some web sites I’ve decided to link to. Please be sure to check out Banish Ed, Life of Convenience and Questionable Content. All three are great sites and fun reads.
Lastly, “Hooray!” for Instant Classic who finally sorted out all of their sever problems! The site is up and running with a special message from Brian. No new comics as of yet, but expect more antics from Author and Kate this coming Monday!
