Funny and Yet Sorta Sad...
Photo-A-Day #1327

On the way to work yesterday I noticed this sign just as I was driving by. I thought it was funny and decided to make sure I got a shot of it on my way home from work today. This is a local liquor store that has crazy funny things going on all the time. They even have a myspace profile.

It is also kinda sad because Thanksgiving should be a nice time to spend with family but often it becomes an incredibly stressful event. Not making a judgment either way just hope that everyone has a nice Thanksgiving. I do think we’ve all thought about that sign once or twice, though.

Short post tonight because Eva will not sleep, she just keeps crying every time I put her down and when I pick her up she just latches on and won’t let go. I let her watch A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving and she was memorized for a while then started playing. I tried putting her down again but she jut screamed. She never does this. But then again she does something every single day that she never does. The crying is getting more intense. Must go.

Comic Book

Around the World in 45 Years

I’ve been reading Charles Schulz’s book Around the World in 45 years. It is a collection of strips to commemorate his 45 year of drawing Peanuts. While the book is not outstanding, I would have liked more insight into each strip rather than a select few in the beginning, it does have charm. The charm is in the comic strips. I am a huge Peanuts fan and have begun to compile my own collection of the Fantagraphics collected years of strips. I even got a couple more books from Allison this past Christmas.

As far as Around the World in 45 years is concerned I really enjoyed the foreword by Lynn Johnston who writes For Better or For Worse. I also liked some of the explanations by Schulz about the comics in the beginning of the book. I’m halfway through the comics themselves. All in all I like it.
