My presence has been, shall we say, minimal of late. Many reasons for this.

First and foremost, the daughter got chicken pox, then croop, then an ear infection all in the same month. Somehow during the most recent illness both mom and I also got sick.

As one of the more recent strips alluded to, I began school again.

Also, I started a new job.

Plus, it appears that Time Warner, under no circumstances whatsoever, wants me to give them money for cable tv and internet access. I have tried pleading with them, yelling, crying, I even offered to bake and Fed Ex them some cupcakes but all to no avail. They are dead set on never coming into my place of residence and installing said cable. My wife asked the other day, “Do we have a cable bill yet?” to which I replied, “What the hell can they bill us for, they haven’t provided any type of service.” Apparantly, they are content with heedlessly pushing back our installation date wily-nily. At this rate, I fully expect to have my cable modem installed sometime around April 2009.

Anyway, as a sort of piece offering for my flagrant absense I offer the following slice of internets goodness as a peace offering.
