'm listening to Joe Cocker's "Fellin' Alright." There's a beer commercial out there that's using this song as their, "Hey! Drinking our beer makes you feel alright!" advertisement.

The folks in the commercial are all naturally having a great time, but the song lyrics cut off after they sing, "Feelin' alright!" That's because the very next lyric is, "I'm not feelin' too good myself." Must be referring to the aftertaste. Or the hangover.

Anyway, I got a few hits from a very interesting source a few days after my last comic update. I'd like to take a minute here and welcome my readers from TechnoDyke.com. From TD's front page:

"TechnoDyke.Com is one of the oldest lesbian communities online. We have been here since February of 2000! 5,000 lesbians, dykes, bisexuals, label-free queers and trans-folk still come to this site every single day."

One of the members specifically linked Cherry Lips Sink Ships, saying it was a favorite. It's nice to know I was able to turn that joke the way I'd intended. See?! Not all of my humor is unidentifiably obscure! Just -- some of it. To those kindly folks visiting from TD: thanks for dropping by.

On the nostalgia front: I picked up Battleground, which is just a fancy new name for Crossbows & Catapults. It's just as hilarious (and dangerous) as I remember it being. A set of tiny, high-strung rubber bands power the little catapults, crossbows, and cannons that come in the package. Never has injuring someone unintentionally been so much fun.

As with Wikipedia, BoardGameGeek.com sent me into a mad clicking frenzy. Eventually, I found myself looking at pages for Dark Tower and Scavenger Hunt.
