Yes, apparently I am in the minority to have been paying my fair share (or more) over the years. And in Adam’s defense it has always been that way with me. I don’t know why. I coul...
Learn All About Vampirella…
Apparently some of you are woefully uneducated when it comes to Vampirella…let me educate you. Above is an awesome sketch of Vampirella by the legendary Bruce Timm. Below is a totally differen...

Yeah, I fixed it. Finally. It was so annoying to realize that the only skipping songs were legally purchased from itunes and everything else was playing fine…itunes jerks. But I updated th...
#205 ~ Rabid Lamb Comics (and a mini-review of True Blood)
That’s right Anna*, you rock that side ponytail. Sadly I could not find a picture on the interwebs of said side ponytail so you could see how awesome it is, but if you saw episode #2 of True B...
Review: I Was Told There’d Be Cake
Is there a better title? I don’t think so. Love it. I really enjoyed this collection of essays by the (way too young!) Sloane Crosley. Crosley has a delicious style that comes off as both lik...
Ten Things I Learned Watching The Third Season Premiere of Heroes
[Spoilers - Read With Caution] 1. They learned from their mistakes last year. While this Season Premiere was full of holes (as I’m beginning to accept the show will be) it was far and away b...

Yeah. I really don’t know what to say. I don’t know what freakish universe she’s living in, but in this one, you pretty much don’t do favors for people you hate, people who...
#202 ~ Rabid Lamb Comics
That’s right - we’re baaaaack!!!!! I know you didn’t believe me that we’d be back…but we are. Let’s hope for no more hiccups, at least until I reach the end of ...
A Pointless Entertainment Conundrum
I am (vaguely) interested in this movie. And then I discovered that this “film critic” gave it a “rave review” and his “soundbite” is even featured in the trailer I...
Book Reviews Galore!
So I have been incredibly delinquent in posting reviews of books read this year. Apparently since I decided not to read 52 books and track them again this year as I did in 2007, my whole reviewing sys...
The Worst Show Revamp Ever
“Film EXPERTS(?!!?) Ben Lyons (L) and Ben Mankiewicz (R) are shown in this combination photo of publicity images released to Reuters July 22, 2008. The Walt Disney Company named the two men on ...
#200 ~ Rabid Lamb Comics
I have to say, not to brag, but this is maybe my favorite cartoon so far. Not that the drawing is any good (it’s terrible, as usual lately) but I just love the idea of my elliptical trainer ha...
#199 ~ Rabid Lamb Comics
So thanks Dave. Thanks a lot. I hope you all have great weekends ahead of you. As my writing deadline fast approaches (11 days!) I will be buckling down, I hope like never before, to write write...
#198 ~ Rabid Lamb Comics
Ew is right. I confess until now, I have never seen a concessions stand at a theater closed for failing an inspection and I find it kind of horrifiying. Although the movie theater I went to see...
#197 ~ Rabid Lamb Comics
Yeah, this one seemed like it was going to be an epic battle, but it blew over pretty quickly. Maybe both of our memories are getting so bad that it’s harder to hang onto that internal rage. ...
#196 ~ Rabid Lamb Comics
That’s right, there’s your awesome (read: totally mediocre) punchline. It’s true though, as much as I’m enjoying the Olympics and am shocked how into it I am, I also cannot ...
#195 ~ Rabid Lamb Comics
I promise you there is a punchline in your future (specifically your future of tomorrow). Hope everyone had a great weekend. Mine was surprisingly productive/enjoyable as in I got some writing done, ...
#192 ~ Rabid Lamb Comics
I’ve been noticing even more weight loss ads lately, particularly for Nutrisystem (the most annoying of all the ads - for various reasons) anyway, it hit me like a ton of bricks the other day, t...
#191 ~ Rabid Lamb Comics
That’s right…I could have started an exercise regime that would have eventually led me to swimming in a pool, which eventually could lead me to being a great and powerful swimmer (unlike t...
#190 ~ Rabid Lamb Comics
Yeah, I’m WAY into it. That swimming relay last night was absolutely unbelievable. I hate to admit that it was made even more sweet by the reports/rumors of the French team talking a lot of sh...
