LISTEN!
This week's Quackcast marks the end of the Halloweencasts! Late, I know, but we recorded these all in advance. We dressed in costume again, which you can see in our VIDEO. Banes as the arctic death wolf, Pitface as the evil Nancy Regan, Tantz as a fierce Greek ...

After spending three hours reading Fragile Things by Neil Gaiman in a public library on Friday afternoon, I ran into the most marvelous sculpture on display while taking a stroll through West Hollywood Park.

Don't forget about MILESTONES!
HippieVan at 12:00AM, Oct. 2, 2015
Lately I've been receiving very few milestones from people! This is just a quick reminder that you (yes, YOU!) can send your milestones or other comic news to myself or kawaiidaigakusei. Don't be shy, even if you feel as though you've sent us multiple milestones in the ...
