That's the Chickenlady, a minor character from the affable 90's sketch comedy "Kids in the Hall". I went to a 90's-themed costume party a while back as her, but I don't have a picture handy so I just googled up the original.

Still have the costume though, so if Carmant's desperate for that kiss I can break it out.

The difference between beard/hair color is unlikely and amazing.

If I'm out in the sun in summer my beard will turn red and gets darker the deeper into winter we get. The gray bits stay gray though.

I story boarded on seasons 7 & 8! Everybody on the animation team got an extra.

Why would I dirty up my cloak with someone's soul? Souls go in thrice-cursed, glass bottles when in storage. Storing them anywhere else is just asking for trouble.

What's so bad about commuting via trains/subways? I take two to work every day and my soul remains quite intact.

Granted, I haven't run into many tourist flocks, except my first week of commuting, when there was a big, important(?) golf tournament along the interurban line, and earlier this year when the Pope came to town and everything shut down. That was nuts. There were so many people just standing around and in my way on the subway platform. If you don't know what you're doing, stand to the loving side instead of having your group of 15 people milling around like confused cattle!

Also, some rear end in a top hat backed into my drat car. At a gas station. While they were being screamed at to stop. :argh:

Joke's on them, my car is a tank and took no damage. Their car left with some fancy new paint and a hosed up bumper. :smuggo:

Crazy house and rent prices in London means anyone who's not a Saudi Arabian Prince, Russian Oligarch, or some sort of banker has to live on the outskirts of the city, but all the offices are in the centre, so each morning I do over an hour on this:



My office (when I'm not at a client) is on Baker Street (yes that Baker Street) which means it's one of the primo tourist destinations.

I guess it's probably not too dissimilar from New York in the way people in the US half-joke that people in New York are rude, it's the same for London.

The three worst things I've heard announced on the tube were:

1) "due to a customer incident, we are delayed" - I've always assumed this meant someone died, until we were literally told once someone threw themselves on the tracks at like 11:00pm and they cancelled all the trains

2) "If there are any customers with professional medical training, please make yourself known to a staff member" - Said on new years eve

3) "Can Inspector Sands please report to the operation room" - this is actually code for "there's a fire" and I wish I never learnt that
