      I actually do not OWN any of those devices but the library I work for has an iPad, early generation Kindle and an eReader. I love reading comics on the iPad, no chance for misregistration. Reading comics on the earlier versions of the Kindle and eReader are unintuitive so you have to do things like FIND the zoom so you can read David B's Epileptic, zoom back out then flip the page. I'd rather just read the blasted thing. And I can see how amazing the others be for travel but I honestly have to DRAW most of the time and that is one more gadget to break/carry. Here is my survival-most-always-have-on-me-package: sketchbook, pen, watercolors, phone, camera, wallet, condoms. That is already a hefty bag.

      The color combinations they are wearing. Are they complementary, in the same color family, monochromatic?

      Favorite band? Am I ten? I have different bands for different moods, time of day, depending on if I'm working on a good poop or not. Right now, Mates of State, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Wanda Jackson, Missy Elliot, Natalie Portman's Shaved Head.

      Well, fake Formspring question, I'd consider it my tiny, carnie hands because they make beautiful art.

      I'd be Rainbow Muff Dust and my ass insignia would look a lot like the rainbow bursting out of the cloudgina on my business card.

      SHARK MEAT. Hot box. Buried Treasure for ladies.

      Ding dong or wang for men, it just embarrasses them so easily. AND rod of power.

      YES, SATURDAY. I'm the commencement speaker (with Evan Dorkin!) I'm working on a 20-30 page gastrosexual love story under the wary eyes of James Sturm. And some more menstruation comics.

      Is this Zack? :P I've found Gchat cuts into my productivity waaaaay too much. I'll jump on again occasionally for certain people/amounts of time.

      I watch Family Guy, Cleveland Show, VENTURE BROTHERS, Simpsons and most recently DINO-RIDERS! Can you believe that there are 14 episodes of that show?! Most of what I remember is in the first episode. The shapes are so familiar in that show I can feel them and the sounds so hauntingly so I can taste 'em!

      Holy HELL, would I grow a mustache! It would be a wicked handle bar 'stache. Actually, the reason I love facial hair is that it can grow rather fast and you can play with it. I'd have long sideburns/mutton chops at some point and a pedo'stache too!

      WHOA, WHAT?! I had no effin' idea! UM, fuck no, there is no way that Popples as a live-action would be good. TMNT barely got away with it and when I visited Mirage Studios in 2009, creator Peter Laird said the CGI TMNT movie was the way he had always wanted to see his turtles. While Jim Henson Studios would do a bangin' job, live-action Popples who put stuff in their pouches honestly would leave the door open for all sorts of weird stuff like kidnapping. Hmm, on second thought this sounds like an excellent SURREAL movie.

      Now, I'm off to read about this Popples movie.

      As a food, I'm absolutely repulsed. Feed me some rubber that I then can barely swallow, let alone CHEW?! No fracking way.

      As a drawing subject, they are ADORABLE. Wriggly in all the right places.

      As a real life organism, those fuckers are terrifying. Once they develop suits to live outside their tanks, the human race as we know it is DEAD. Even DED. They can use tools and LEARN to use others, squeeze through a hole the size of a quarter... I'm scared, Rachel.

      How did I do it, INDEED, sir or madam. So you preheat the oven at 400 degrees F and poke the sweet potatoes multiple times with a fork to prevent explosions! Then you resize the grayscale image to 1200 for excellent line quality. Finally, roll the condom off whilst holding the bottom and before throwing it away, tie in a knot to prevent junkyard animals from choking and that crazy stalker from stealing your seed.

      Also, rainbows.

      If I did, you would never know as I am silent, like the wind's sister.
