Dead Days - Sunday, May 18th, 2008

As you read this, I'm in Denver Colorado (on a crappy business trip, unfortunately) with probably no access to the internet. Luckily, I used my ENORMOUS BRAIN (seriously, it's stupid huge) and planned ahead for such a situation. Thus, as I write this, it's last Thursday and I'm here at my computer doing what SMART people call "planning ahead." Damn I'm good.

But enough modesty, you're here for the new DEAD DAYS strip! I wrote this at my mother-in-law's house after home cooked meal. It was delicious and made me realize that the closest I come to actually "cooking" is sauteing vegetable stir-fry from Trader Joes. And the only reason I even do THAT is because I live with a woman. The only time I really ever rolled up my sleeves and made something from scratch was when that show "Hell's Kitchen" first came out (a horrible reality show about cooking for those of you in other countries who probably have television programming that doesn't always appeal to the lowest common denominator) and my friends and I would get together and have cook-offs. Otherwise, I'm as clueless as these two, for realz.

As soon as I get back from Denver, I'm almost immediately off to Chicago for my sister's wedding, so while I was GENIUS enough to plan ahead for this week, I was RETARDED in coming up with a strip for next week. LUCKILY, one of my very best internet buddies Eli Parker (of Tall Comics) will be doing a DEAD DAYS GUEST STRIP next week! The guy is thee man, so be sure to come back and check THAT out.

So whether you're one of those in that "subculture" he's talking about who love to cook, or are like my buddy Eric who just can't understand why someone would spend so much time on something they're just going to eat in minutes, enjoy the new strip and thanks for reading! Later.
