Update 2234 hrs: It was stupid to see Vanilla Sky because a)it was not the film it could have been and b) I will have weird dreams. On the other hand, I never liked Penelope Cruzuntil tonight, but now we are going to be married.

I think I actually put more effort into next Tuesday’s comic than I ever did on several of the older ones–and this oneI didn’t even draw. I tried to keep the Paint Shopping low and not get cheesy with it, but hey, one must makeallowances for the neophyte.

Anyway, I’m ahead of schedule again, so that’s kind of nice.

Predictions for the year 2002:

  • Local newspaper editorials will make their own predictions, in which they will manage to misspell”palindrome.”

  • Web design will veer off in a different and even less user-friendly direction.
  • I will be referred to, variously, as “Brendon,” “Brandon,” “Brenda” and “Beernad.”
  • I will attempt to pick up new slang terms, only to drop them quietly when I realize how stupid I sound.
  • Hell will freeze over, or possibly the world will end.
  • I will get a date. (Note: some predictions may be causally related.)
  • I will miss a Xorph update at least once, causing me massive guilt attacksdespite the fact that like five people read it.
  • Short Story will get signed, make a million bajillion dollars, andspend it all on video games.
  • I will beat the snot out of everyone in Mario Kart.
  • Centre students will drink, women will ignore me, BoxJam will take out the trash, Earth will tilt on its axis and Julia Stiles will put me off mylunch. In other words: life will go on.

You’re welcome. That’ll be $39.95.

Oh Lord, won’t you buy me
