Something got fooked up and the latest comic didn't upload and an old comic was on. My bads, well I hope everyone had a safe and fun holidays and let's get ready for 2009! Whoo-hooo!
I've been reading that the banks won't disclose where the money is going. This is very troubling and I'm surprised that congress didn't have any oversight to where the money is going. I'm so angry about this. All the taxes we paid over the years are going to bailout these banks and they won't even tellus where they're spending the money! While the CEO's are getting a fat bonus and private business jets main street is struggling to pay the mortgage. There needs to be more regulation on the bailout plan or these banks are going to use OUR TAX DOLLARS to just help themselves.
I'm really not the type of person to follow the lives of artists and who they're dating but I just read an article about Janet and JD killing rumors of Janet being pregnant. Ummmm when did Janet start dating Papa Smurf?! WTF?! I'm pretty sure that this is old news to most of you but this is a shocking revelation to me. Is she on crack? Well, I guess I have to give it up to JD forhaving enough game to get Ms. Jackson but damn.

I just want to send out my prayers to those who lost their lives to these dickless terrorists that attacked Mumbai. It's so sad to see lives shattered like this. God help us...
Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope you all have a safe and fattening Thanksgiving and to help laugh away those holiday weight here are some comics from Spade and Diamond.
I decided to publish more than the usual comics this week to get the story rolling a little faster and to put out new comics about Thanksgiving. I also re-wrote and redrew a couple of comics. Check out Episode 6 and Episode 8. Enjoy and the Royal Flush shirts will be available for purchase soon!
I don't do internet dating or anything of the sort. I don't look down upon it or frown upon it but I'm more of a traditional, 'hi, how you doing' face to face type. So I was reading about Samsung, a South Korean company, pulling out of Circuit City and an ad popped up about International Korean dating:
I usually brush these annoying ads off but the girl on the ad was cute so I clicked and looked at the goods. To my astonishment many of these were cute... a little too cute. I think this is a scam, they probably got some pictures off people's Facebook or Myspace and wrote some bullcrap on their profile. So beware of these types of sites!
No one asked me but I'll tell you why anyway. First, the cross bone has been an icon for centuries. Many Billy-Bad-Asses have used this symbol to display their bad-assness. However, the real reason why I decided on the cross bone symbol is because the Ace of Spade is considered a DEATH CARD! Dom-dom-dom. Yea scary.
The Ace of Spades has been employed, on numerous occasions, in the theatreof war. In the Second World War, the soldiers of the 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment of the American101st Airborne Division were marked with the spades symbol painted on the sides of their helmets. In this capacity, it was used to represent good luck, due to its fortunate connotations in card playing. All four card suits were used for ease of identification of regiments within the airborne division following the confusion of a large scale combat airborne operation. Battalions within the regiments were denoted with tic marks or dots, marked from top clockwise; Headquarters at the twelve o'clock position, 1st Battalion at the three o'clock, et cetera.
Some twenty years later, the Ace of Spades was again used by American soldiers — this time as a psychological weapon in the Vietnam War. US troops erroneously believed that Vietnamese ancient traditions held the symbolism of the spade to mean death and ill-fortune and in a bid to scare away NLF soldiers without firefight, it was common practice to leave an Ace of Spades on the bodies of killed Vietnamese and even to litter the forested grounds and fields with the card. This custom was erroneously believed to be so effective, that the Bicycle Playing Cards company was asked to supply crates of that single card in bulk. The crates were often marked with "Bicycle Secret Weapon".[7] -Wikipedia.com
