This happened to us this week.

Wednesday, I flipped my old phone open, and, well, it kept going. Hinge just shattered. So Wednesday night we ended up shopping for new phones (since we were both outside of contract anyway). My number (for those of you who have it) hasn’t changed, but now my phone plays music too.

And when I added Xingtone to my computer, well, let’s just say I have some very interesting ring tones now :)

Yes, some of us do this for fun.

If any of you are still in touch with your high school English teachers (or mine) it might be worthwhile to pass on a link to Websnark.com: The Podcast and the Examiner: on the nature of Webcomics Criticism.

I say that because, in English class through high school and even through college, I often heard people ask when they would possibly ever use the literary criticism skills they were stubbornly digesting at the time.

Well, if your interests lie in creation of things – art, fiction, comics, pretty much anything – you might find that literary skills come in handy sometime much later, when you’re participating in the creative community.

And no, I don’t expect my English teachers (or anyone else) to understand all of this comic criticism, this is more to say, “Look! I’m still using the skills you taught me! Thank you!”
