Not only is rain welcome and life-giving here in Los Angeles, it also discourages my neighbor from having audible sex in his backyard hot tub in the post-midnight hours.

Just heard that Pat Finn passed away. A great and funny character actor, he made everything he was in a little bit better. And he was in practically everything.

For me, his iconic moment is in this "Got Milk" commercial...

I do not have the time or patience for button flys on my jeans. How did this ever become a thing?

BLOWBACK's table at last week's DreamCon & Bazaar at DreamWorks Animation campus. A mini convention for staff to show and sell their wares.

Accompanied by food and drink and carefully arranged to dodge the rain.

Still waited to vote for the Ringo Awards until the last day, but with a bit more time to spare than usual.


If you're a Pro Comics Creator, you've got AN HOUR on the West Coast to follow my lead.
