I've been working on a longer, more music-related news update. Honest. But to summarize my recent life: X-Com went from tedious to fun about three weeks ago. I deleted it last week as it's the only effective way to stop playing. My comic of the week for, well, whenever I left off, is Sandwich World. I've been back on my "Reading Mark Twain" kick instead of reading comics. Mainly because if you read an e-book, you look like you're doing something instead of goofing off. But I digress. Sandwich World originally caught my eye because this comic has a restaurant by that name. He was using the name first, but I hadn't heard of his comic until long afterwards. But it's a cool coincidence. Anyhow, the strip itself is great. It's straight-up comedy, with very little regard for drama or realism. It's about this sandwich shop. They've got a demon who bakes the bread. Their archnemeses are Ninja Burger and the ex-mobster Health Inspector. That is not a sufficient description, but gives you an idea what to expect. It's been on an unsteady schedule of late, but will hopefully return to regularity. I say it's hilarious. It reminds me of Cromartie, one of my favorite mangas. I realize that most of you have not read Cromartie as it won't be officially released for a month or two. Go read Sandwich World, please. Also, I got Pikmin recently and it's a great game. I enjoy playing Pikmin much more than I enjoy writing about it, so that's all I'm going to say about it.
