In the spirit of holiday laziness and
in recognition of historical change,
here are last year’s cartoons… updated
Enjoy the Christmas Holiday Weekend
It’s gonna be a tad nippy for the next few days.
Take this.
Or, if you need some company
like you’d get if you invited me over

And now I don’t believe Bill Whittle attended that show
Always liked and trusted Bill Whittle. He’s never given me reason to doubt him;
and what he said is compatible with what I know about mentalism;
but now that I know he knows how to do it, how can I completely trust his story?
There’s a big difference between calling someone a dadburned liar and
merely stamping “plausible but unverified” on the information they provide.
[taps ash off cigar, sips drink, leans back, closes eyes, grins the grin of the easily entertained]
Thanks, Bill.
I enjoyed that.
Cool story, bruh.
Note: threw in a bunch of tags to hopefully snag anybody searching for the old site
