Affirmative Action Poll Results

Looks like it's pretty definitive that most of you guys don't think affirmative action works or at the least, it shows unfair favoritism. There's a very basic logic that using race as a basis for any sort of benefit can be construed as racist. I think most people acknowledge that. But it's like while most people agree killing is wrong, many can justify war. Now that I've equated supporters of affirmative action with people who like war, I'll just shut up and sit in the corner.

Occupy Halloween!

My heart goes out to all the dedicated people showing the world what they think of our screwed up financial and political system. Happy Halloween.

Old School Wednesdays: SAM strips from way back

I've been playing around with the idea of publishing my old strips (from, like, 10 years ago) into a book and include some new material as well. So I thought it might be a good idea to start posting these strips for people who have most likely never read them. So I'm instituting "Old School Wednesdays". Enjoy!

Halloween costumes

I was doing a little research on costumes for next week's strip and noticed something kind of messed up when I did image searches for boys and girls. I suppose I should be relieved to have two boys?
