In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row,
That mark our place; and in the sky
The larks, still bravely singing, fly
Scarce heard amid the guns below.
We are the dead. Short days ago
We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,
Loved, and were loved, and now we lie
In Flanders fields.
Take up our quarrel with the foe:

I know I haven’t posted in…well…forever. Check out my Twitter feed – http://twitter.com/captain_primate. Huzzah! Another thing not to update!
If corn oil is made from corn, and vegetable oil is made from vegetables, what is baby oil made from?
If electricity comes from electrons, does morality come from morons?
Can a hearse carrying a corpse drive in the carpool lane?
Why do people pay to go up tall buildings and then put money in binoculars to look [...]
Anyone has has even a moderately active blog gets all sorts of crazy blog spam. Some deal with it by moderating all comments…some use a blacklist program of some sort. I use Akismet (which is by far and away the most awesome thing so even happen to the blogspehere). Well, I did [...]

Q:I have never seen it warm on Canadian TV, [...]
As many of you know, I’m a comic dork (mainly Marvel stuff…and mainly X-Men…though I’ve recently enjoyed the Ultimates & the New Avengers…as well as a cool indie comic called DMZ). Anyway, I recently found out the Marvel has launched its own podcast. Yeah, they are a little behind the times, but its nice to [...]
I’ve finally gotten around to filling that empty space at the top of my page that had been screaming to be filled since I launched my new design. Certainly not the epitomy of stellar graphic design, but it’ll do for now.
For anyone who is a voracious reader, they will have found that their wallet can’t always keep up with their lust for the written word. This is why I highly recommend Book Closeouts to anyone in the same situation. According to their website, they offer “new, unread books that the publisher sells-off in volume to [...]
Like many other game dorks out there, I watched the MTV Xbox 360 reveal last night. And, perhaps, like many other (probably) older viewers, I was struck by how little substance the program actually had. Yes, I know, it was advertainment, pure and simple. I realize that. The problem I had was that the actual [...]
