A Daring Revenge Plan

Wow. I just, like, finished one WACKY-ass essay, so bear with me here. My head feels... *squirmy*, or something. Just not fun. Remember, kids, no matter HOW good of an idea it seems, or how tasty they look, do *NOT* eat those four chocolate-covered macadamia nut clusters while attempting to write a paper about how birds in William Butler Yeats's poetry are all IMMORTAL and some shit, and what that means in the "big picture." Just... it'll mess you up, and trust me on that one. Woo-boy.
Picked up some Tenacious D - if you haven't heard about it by now, you're even FARTHER out of the loop than me, I should give you a prize or something - and hey, guess what, they're actually quite awesome. Pardon my surprise, because even though I like Jack Black as much as the next wacko out there, the idea of him and some random friend of his having a BAND didn't inspire joy so much as *fear*, as well it should. Hey, I got one word for you skeptics out there: DOGSTAR. Do you *really* want Keanu Reeves in a band? Honestly? Okay, how about Bruce Willis singing the blues? ::pause for shrieks of mercy from the onlookers:: Don't say I didn't warn you. But yeah, nothing to fear from Tenacious D - well, not really - but they certainly don't suck. No sir, I tell you what. In fact, after you pick up the new Girl Repellent CD (i.e. brother's band, they rock too), I'd recommend grabbin' theirs. Because it's fun, and things. Yah.
Because I can't quite believe it, I have to include here the full text - as she sent it to me - of my friend Helen's "Cheese Song," which is a rather clever (and *cheese-related*) take on what is apparently a hymn called "I Have Decided to Follow Jesus." Who knew that "cheeses" and "Jesus" rhymed so darn CLEVERLY?? Take a look:
I have decided to follow cheeses
It feels so Gouda when I have cheeses
I Camembert it when there's no cheeses
No Colby Jack, no Colby Jack
Nifty, huh? I smell a Grammy... that is, unless God attempts to press copyright charges or something. You never know what the divine might do. In *fact*, they might just make me ARF ARF BARK BARK BARK EEEEEEEEEEEEEE...
::pause:: Tourette's again. You should probably just ignore that, or something. Yes.
Trying to think of something else possibly exciting to say, but coming up with little right now. School is preparing to give me a lashing - I can feel it - but I think my work here is done, at least for tonight. I've got all your comic funny prepared up to and now *including* #50 - debuting in under TWO WEEKS, so get ready the bubbly for the big celebration - so I'm maybe going to have some time to get some future storylines pegged-out in more detail. I *am* aware I promised some more minor characters down the line, and trust me, I will deliver, only patience is required. Sometimes it SUXX0RS, sure, but indeed all things come to those who wait. So sit back, friends, and enjoy the ride. We're approaching our cruising altitude, and we'll continue to distribute as much tasty funny as we've got in stock. Don't drop out - hell, bring your friends. The fun, as it were, is only *just* beginning.
My own biggest fan,
