Get animated and make your own cartoons!
Posted at 9:00 p.m. - Friday, August 29
I thought I'd celebrate my 101st blog posting by sharing a gift with all my readers.
The above animation was created by user 'etourist' on the Go Animate! web site. I met the creator of Go Animate!, Alvin Hung, at the San Diego Comic Convention and was able to get an interview (click below):

I wanna mini-monkey! (Or at least a submarine.)

OK, I remember seeing these ads as a kid and wondering what the catch was. Did you really get a miniature dog? Once you completed all their requirements, would they really send you a tiny monkey? Now, these days I know better. Even if they actually sent you the promised critter, it wouldn't be good for anyone (just imagine that tiny monkey throwing tiny bits of primate poo around your house) but still...
If you're one of those folks who actually answered the ad, I'd like to know what happened. My guess is that you got ripped off, as was wont with these old comic ads. But maybe, just maybe, someone actually got that mini dog or primate. You can comment or e-mail me your story!
(I always wanted that Polaris Submarine that you could send away for!)
