Stupid Snow

Well, if you live in the northwest, you're probably under a foot or so of snow right now. I realize all of you from back east are snickering, as you routinely deal with six and eight feet of snow, not to mention rampaging hordes of Yeti, but it's a big deal for us.

I just want it to stop snowing for the Emerald City Comicon, which is only a week away. I don't even want sunny or warm, just no snow. I would even prefer zombies to snow, as I can't beat the snow to death with a baseball bat.

NOTE: I realize that zombies are already dead. I guess I would be making them redead. Deader? Non-ambulatory?

Anyway, regardless of where you live, have a safe weekend and watch out for the yetis.

Cheers,
-Jason

Jason, not to be off-topic, but is there any news about Art the Wanderer?

We don't need to worry about yetis. Bunyips and drop-bears are what we have to look out for.

That's why I don't live in Canada, Anon #1 :)

Hey, BubbaB. I've been submitting Art to various agents, but none have bit so far. I'm going to keep trying though :)

Okay, Toil3T, I know what a bunyip is, but what's a drop-bear?

Toil3T said...

A drop-bear is similar to a koala, but bigger and fiercer. They're pretty much a dire koala. They lie in wait in a tree over a pathway, and drop onto their prey from above, stunning them. They then proceed to eat them. Their preferred prey are small children, or tourists.

Among the many North World stories, there is one called "Wan Light", which includes drop bears. And this is their page:

Fierce beasts! RAWR!

Do the drop bears often prey on snipe? That would make a certain amount of sense :)

Toil3T said...

Yes, occasionally, though they prefer larger prey :)

Dire Snipe?

Toil3T said...

Sure, that works.
