I still think about "Imagin' a vivid drownin' death in real low-light conditions... like the brig of a sinkin' ship" as a friend that truly knows the bottomless depths of his friend's ability to conjure the worst images his buddy can fathom. Also I can't tell when the site changed but I miss the ability to start at the end and work back. Now I have to google "Achewood Golden Tabloid" for the strip I want.

I always forget about that strip but I love it, including Molly understanding that for a little kid it can be scary to ask a question about Jesus  "I lost a bet and now he gets to act like an angry blue-collar father all day" is so great.
