I'm feeling this one, Kal. Great find! I have copied it!; January 27, 2011 at 5:23 PM

Ricky Shambles said...: I thought this.

Then I got married.

Now I think this again.; January 27, 2011 at 6:29 PM
Kal said...: Yuu found her around the world Ricky? Was she mailed to you C.O.D?; January 27, 2011 at 6:32 PM
Ricky Shambles said...: Sorry. To elucidate:

I thought this once.

Then I met someone local and thought "That's foolish of me! She's perfect!"

Then we got married and over the course of 10 years, we both changed. She's still pretty awesome; we're just not so much the same awesome anymore.

And I therefore revert back to the comic representation of longing...

...now more sadly aware that "perfect" slides on the scale of time and just because those scales intersect at the appropriate moment does not necessitate that they will flow parallel for long, if at all.; January 27, 2011 at 6:45 PM
DrGoat said...: What Ricky sez is so true. I'm in the same boat but we've been married 25. Been longing longer.; January 27, 2011 at 8:50 PM
Tempo said...: when you're in a relationship you think it sux and want to be single...when you're single you think it sux and want to be in a relationship... can you see where I'm going with this Cal?; January 27, 2011 at 10:40 PM
Kal said...: My mother gave me some advice once while she listened to me bitch about a cetain girl - "Well, you could be married to her."

Scared me straight.

I really have it great right now. I really don't need any new to disappoint. Thanks for listening and responding to my whining.

I hope my 'wine' is always only the finest vintage for y'all'; January 28, 2011 at 3:31 AM

Pat Tillett said...: I know this sounds corny, but I somehow ran into mine. I don't know if she'd say the same thng, but at least she hasn't smothered me in my sleep yet..; January 28, 2011 at 12:30 PM
Kal said...: It's testiment to her love for you that she would at least wait until you fall asleep to smother you. Most girls I know would rather face me in a battle to the death.; January 28, 2011 at 12:44 PM

Calvin's Canadian Cave Of Cool Manifesto

I forever stand vigilant to protect this planet from the myriad of forces that are always against us. Be it the octopus, zombies, aliens or the robots my team of human agents, and our feline allies, circle the globe in a never ending struggle for human freedom.

I learn all I can on every subject that interests me. I especially enjoy ancient history because in the past there are valuable lessons to be found. Also, if I ever get my time machine to work properly, it would be good to know a bit about possible destinations and what to expect when I get there.

I greatly appreciate beautiful design. Be it manufactured or found naturally I am fascinated by the process of invention. I am attracted to the unique, the strange, the haunted. I like to share what I find on this blog.

And not let us forget the 'Cephalopod Menace' who, if allowed to, would wrap their tentacles around all that is good and pure in this life and crush it until it remained no more. They are creatures of pure spite. Hate is all they know. Death is all they do. They are our most ruthless and determined enemy.

So we fight. Selena has the celebrity contacts, the cat is ruthless and without pity, Roosevelt's ghost has the experience and I do the wetwork.

Fighting for the future of the planet doesn't have to be a chore, however. We can take the time to appreciate all that is cool in this world even as we cut the octopus into bite sized chunks.

This is the reason there has always been and must forever be, a Cave of Cool. Be sure to wipe your feet before you enter.
