Cartoons for the Super-intellectual

That's the plan for this Sunday, assuming cartoon caption writers come through. The cartoons are in the usual place (link in sidebar).

He reached down, picked up a particularly smooth, flat stone. Then he stood up and tossed it across the pond.

Q & A

with Mrs. Varmighan
