Ho ho ho and a ha ha ha! Greetings and much love from the four of us (except for Fujasu, he's an equal opportunity grump) during the last vestiges of this damning-to-the-bitter-end 1997 year.

    Yeah, we know. It's December, not March. There is no practical or appropriate reason to have a leprechaun on a winter holiday page, particularly an exhibitionistic leprechaun, but hey. Chalk it up to our well-known penchant for irreverence, particularly at a time when everyone seems to be getting sick, we're all apparently about to be horribly slaughtered by El Niño, and it's also a perfect time to throw out a hearty "!@&$% You" to a certain cheesy-minded corporation with bad timing and petty taste.

    But things are cool. Things are all right. It's all good. We wanna give love and fervent thanks to everyone, for keeping your eyes out for us and giving us so much love and support over the year and, well, as long as we've known all of you. You know who you are. And we know who you are. We, uh, all know who everyone is. And you know that. And so do we.



Merry Christmas! Happy Chanukah!





I guess while you're here and not doing anything, you may as well have a free drink at the Dead Lounge and a complimentary breakfast at Sarco's Blood Bar & Grill. There's a new batch of Santa Casserole in the making....
