My people call it malaise: Maybe it's just the weather, or perhaps it's just me, but are all the blogs depressing this week? Jesus, I've read cheerier obituaries and more uplifting breakup letters.

Even worse, the comics "news" sites are barren of, well, news. And I just don't have the strength to crack open the Delphi forums today.

John Jakala's link to Derek Kirk Kim's "The Ten Commandments of Simon" put a crooked smile on my face, though.

I'm working on a free-lance project today, but I'll keep foraging for something interesting to write about. Wish me luck.
