Participant Observation

So, you know that feeling you get when you're watching the big game and you're in a bar full of people and you're all wearing shirts for your team and getting wasted and making cracks about players and commentators and generally soaking in the whole city's energy, and everywhere you look there are more fans and you think, "Ah! My people!"?

I don't.

Eeeeeeeeeee! New layout!

Look at it! Look at it!  Isn't it puuuuuuuuurdy?

Massive thanks to Shaina at notenoughbbq.com, who did these cute cartoon versions of us. 

They are scary accurate, considering that the dress Skippy is wearing in the bottom banner is eerily like one she actually owns that Shaina has never seen or even heard about.  It was just apparently magically channelled through her pen.

Shaina and I are bros from way back, having been on the exec board of Wellesley's Sci-fi club together for years.  Go check out her comic Steampunk Soiree if you like Victorian robots, pretty art or awesome things in general!

To make this marginally hockey related (not that it needs to be, considering), I give you a few more koans from the Zen of Puckbunnies:

The Zen of Puckbunnies (Vol 2-- Bugaloo Electric Over Cedars)

The Zen of Puckbunnies (Vol 1)

The first of (way too) many hockey haiku posts.

If only Sensei knew this is what would become of my degree in Japanese literature.
