The comic is a hobby of mine, and as such I update it whenever it is feasible for me to waste the time necessary to draw a comic. Drawing is not my only time sink, however, and I’m starting a new section of the site to showcase some of my other work. Over the coming weeks, I will be fleshing out the Gadgets section visible on the top menu bar. Feel free to ask questions or request specific articles as I introduce more pages to the section. I have included a walkthrough of my first surface-mount soldering attempt, which will probably not interest most of you but it will give you an idea of what I do. Over the coming week, I plan on putting up a long overdue teardown of a solar-powered walkway light available at your local Wal-Mart (for all your creative engineering needs) and a lot of information, including pictures, of the costume I built for Dragon*Con. With any luck, I’ll figure out these YourTubes things and even post some videos, but don’t hold your collective breath. Please check it out and let me know what you think. I will try to do this in addition to comic updates, but if I am not capable of producing a comic I will at least try to give you something here.

Does it bother anyone else that legal language is archaic? I understand the need for precise language, but I can’t remember the last time I saw “Be it heretofore resolved” in a technical document. I really do feel like legal professionals subscribe to the theory that if they could find enough monkeys banging away at enough typewriters, some day the monkey room will turn out a document that will go down in legal history. I hear there are capuchin monkeys in South America that routinely use tools to dig for roots and break open nuts: These nut-busting simians would be perfect for the job.
