Quixotic Jumpers For Movable Profit Margin Marraiges

Another great illustrator's site chanced upon through Drawn. Some very nice stuff all round but this Don Quixotic stuff is, for want of a better term, fecking sumptuous.

Just been reading about the recent Penny Arcade Limited Edition CTS Cel over at Digital Strips. 750 prints sold at $80 a pop, 500 of them sold in the space of two days at Think Geek. Now, I don't know what sort of profit margin they were looking at but 40 grand in two days is, by no means, a bad days work in anyones eyes. For those of who, having lived in a cave without internet access, aren't in the know Penny Arcade is, at it's core at least, a webcomic.

In less interesting news, through some obscure Texas law two people were able to get married via their blogs. You can read his vows here and hers here.

Worth looking at just for the look on the guys face.

Tonight Cork City are going into UEFA cup action against Sweden's Djurgarden. With only Georgio missing through suspension, Jumpers for Goalposts (as my brother has named him) has a full squad to pick from. It's a huge game for us but we have every chance of pulling it off.
