Great news, NMCers! I'm in the process of buying the rights to www.nonemorecomic.com, and soon None More Comic will be moving to its own hosting site! I'm grateful for all the years Keenspace has hosted this site, but I'd like to try my hand at having the comic webzine have its own place to live. It's like moving out and going to college, but for URLs! *sniff* It's just so beautiful...show them my motto. Throw it in reverse for Thirst! Ack! Sorry about that, my soul was possessed by marketers for a minute there. I'm okay now.

Also, check out Mr. Picasso Head! I used it to create a weird-looking headshot for LiveJournal. Go me.

Go Google Ads! I flew in from California yesterday and checked my account, and since I enrolled in the program I've made $0.87!!! At this rate, I'll be making $6.60 a month, which will exceed my goal by $1.60!!! Woo-hoo! I know it may not seem like much, but since this is the first time that NMC has ever made any money (since the Feed Bayard A Hot Dog Fundraiser at least), it's like a revenue increase of, say, 10 to the INFINITY percent. Which is pretty good, you know?

What's up guys. If you haven't noticed, after 5 years of doing this site I'm attempting to sell out. In addition to making the t-shirts nicer, I'm trying out an experiment: I'm putting Google text ads next to The Blog. Since my site's hosted on Keenspace, I don't get any monies when people click on the ad banner at the top -- and the banner on the bottom is a Link Exchange, meaning it just earns more exposure for my site whether you click on it or not. But these ones off to the right -- I get a little bit of money anytime someone clicks on them, which rocks! I picked Google because I liked Google, and also because they give you the option of doing text ads only, so it's not Uber-ugly and annoying. As always, let me know what you think on the tagboard or by email. If it's really annoying and horrible, I'll remove it. But I do like the idea of making a *little* cash off the site. Over this time I've made a total of $4.90 -- ninety cents from the "Feed Bayard a Hot Dog Fund" I did a while back, and $4 from t-shirt sales. With a readership of about 300+/day, I'm hoping I can earn, I dunno, $5 a month? That'd buy me dinner once a month, which would be cool.

Guess what? In an effort to actually sell a few shirts, None More Comic has revamped its webstore!!! Check out the new items up at None More Store, including the first of a series of character tees starring Phil. Hope you like it, and if there's a particular character you'd like to see on a t-shirt let me know and I'll whip something up.

Enjoy this massive list of pick-up lines. My favorite one is, "Do you eat Lucky Charms? Because you're Magically Delicious!" That one's so stupid it just might work.

Also, I liked this article from McSweeney's titled Caring for your Panther for $10. Or "Taking Care of Your Panther, $10 Style." I can't remember the exact wording, but it's definitely Panther-related.

Come on now...I know you want some Breakdancin' Decepticons! Thanks Metallian.

Also, WHAT THE CRAP IS WRONG WITH ANNA NICOLE SMITH? Here's her latest quote from FHM, where she shows off her Trimspa body: "A ghost would crawl up my leg and have sex with me at an apartment a long time ago in Texas. I used to think it was my boyfriend, and one day I woke up and it wasn't. I was freaked out about it, but then I was, like, 'Well, you know what? He's never hurt me and he just gave me some amazing sex, so I have no problem.' " What the crap, ANS. What the crap.

Are you lonely? Will you take anybody? Even if they're overeducated and self-indulgently negative? Then check out Esquire's new Brutally Honest Personals. Personally, I'd like to see this expand into a real personals page, but at this point it's a funny take on personals, and Esquire only lists 2-3 each issue so it's not exactly matching up dysfunctional people by the dozen. More like, well, by the two to three.

I just discovered the joys of sending my friends stupid e-cards from LameCards.com. They're the best...and by best I mean terrible. But at least they're not mean-spirited like PickleParty.com's cards, which make them kinda hard to actually send to anyone. Interestingly, I found this site because I was so bored at work that I googled the word "Lame" and this came up. Google is pretty accurate and stuff.
