Digital Arcana

Getting older sucks, that’s what!  We’ve achieved much on the porch.  Have a look at my lovely wife’s blog for photographic evidence.  In the process, however, I managed to do something unfortunate to my left elbow.  I also ended up pretty wiped out.  That, in combination with other factors, made it difficult to get away this weekend on a planned trip.  I think the downtime is a good thing, though.

On a more positive note, the web comic is still simmering on the back burner.  I finally have a design for the main character that I can actually take some legitimate pride in.  Once Alex and I get a little backlog of strips built we will launch it with weekly updates.  Personally, I think the Halloween timeframe would be a fitting launch window.

Also, I wanted to share the coolest thing I’ve seen in a long time and the only thing that would ever get me close to driving a motorcycle.  Sadly, the aforementioned “getting old” issue makes that unlikely.  Also, I am developing a mental picture of what happens at 75mph when the truck in front of you throws a stone which bounces off the pavement and… well… let’s just say it’s possible to win a Darwin Award without dying.

I hope everyone out there enjoys the rest of their long weekend.
