drawing comics, making fun of people, playing guitar, plotting to destroy the rat-bastard pharmacist at CVS at the corner of Braker and North Lamar.
Music
Track 13 on the new Tenacious D album has really grabbed me. It's got a full-on rock-off showdown with the devil, played by Dave Grohl.
Movies
Wanda Sykes autographed my Pootie Tang DVD, and for some reason, it seems to have filled a void in my life I never knew was there.
Television
I watched the Big Lebowski on TV the other night. They had to edit out all the bad words, which made the movie about 20 minutes long and full of such wonderful turns of phrase as, "You see what happens, Larry? This is what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps!"
Books
Big news from the publishing world: ERMA BOMBECK'S GONE BLUE! The humorist who has delighted readers for generations with her wry, family-style wit intends to release her folksy, X-rated observations this Christmas in a new volume entiteld, "Why to they call it a pussy when it smells like fish?"

About me: Central Texas' longest running and most terrifying haunted house is out of business after Buda Fire Marshal Mike Duffey required the installation of a 210,000 gallon water tank. This tank would be bigger than the tanks which supply water for many small towns, cost at minimum $100,000-$150,000 and take months to construct!
Nightmare Factory was inspected as recently as October 2006 by the Hays County Assistant Fire Marshal who was accompanied by a State Fire Marshal in an advisory capacity. However, in November 2006 Nightmare Factory was moved from the jurisdiction of the Hays County Fire Marshal to that of the Buda Fire Marshal. Owner Stephen Laurent contacted the Buda Fire Marshal in February 2007 to find out what, if any, changes might be required. He was told he would be given until the end of 2007 to identify and comply with any code changes. However, at the end of June he received a letter denying Nightmare Factory an operational permit based on new code requirements. Many business owners in the Buda area may soon face similar problems.
