The #1 Fan

fan

Actually…

This might not be as far-fetched as Mr. McPherson thinks: when we were house-hunting some years back we came across a house whose fan, while not quite as large as this one, was powerful enough that it literally knocked my wife off her feet. The sort of thing you’d expect in a factory or something.

I don’t want to think about what the electric bill must have been for that house, but I’m pretty sure they never had to dust anything.

Spongechronicity

Well, a personal spongechronicity, anyway:

I read this comic (which I did not at all understand) while I was in Manhattan today, having gone in to buy tickets for my wife and me, our sons. and their girlfriends to see Spongebob Squarepants the Musical.

TicketMaster was charging almost $80 in fees for six tickets, by the way: How is this not considered scalping? We’re not talking about the premium they charge for had-to-get tickets (even though Ticketmaster is often the reason tickets are hard to find), which is a separate matter: these are literally the same tickets I was able to buy at the box office.

Anyway, y’all are here for the comic, not to hear me rant about Ticketmaster:

Added 10 minutes later:

Okay, now it’s getting weird (even though I suspect those are supposed to be pieces of Swiss cheese rather than little Spongebobs: I really don’t have a clue what the Off the Mark is all about either, so I guess we get another bonus CIDU this evening)
