a clash of cultures

I am a big fan of the Comics Curmudgeon (see link to the right). If he was Australian he would have had a thing or two or perhaps three to say about the instalment of the Wizard of Id that appears in today's Age.



Let me know if you need me to explain why this comes out seeming weird in an Australian newspaper (on a related topic, I will let you know if I need to have it explained why I should have stopped reading this comic strip about 25 years ago).

I was intrigued to see the Finks motorcycle club have a Wizard of ID on their colors jackets.
I guess the copyright holder would be too scared to complain.
*sigh*

ryan 'pipeline' (part 1)

I'm going to come back to this ep of Ryan because it has an amazing North Melbourne car chase, but first I want to honour Margaret Cruic...
