The Revenge of the Return of Special Procedures Cow!

Special Procedures Cow!As mentioned before, Special Procedures Cow is an incredibly amateurish little comic strip in which I blow off steam (and mercilessly rehash inside jokes) at/about work. This is the final installment; since this contract job – which I’ve been working on and off since April – is over, there may sadly be no new stories to inspire further adventures of Special Procedures Cow. But you never know, there may be some bovine intervention down the road…

A few liner notes after the jump. … Read more

The Return of Special Procedures Cow!

Special Procedures Cow!As mentioned before, Special Procedures Cow is an incredibly amateurish little comic strip in which I blow off steam (and mercilessly rehash inside jokes) at/about work. This installment gets a bit weird, but is based on the true story of… feedback… I received from one of the full-time (i.e. non-contract) employees when I tried to replace their Windows XP computer with a newer, faster, shinier Windows 7 computer.

The result… is this. … Read more

Meet Special Procedures Cow!

Special Procedures Cow!It was a really, really slow day at work. At one point we looked over a computer marked “Special Procedures Cow” (a cow, in this context, being a Computer On Wheels – a laptop mounted to a wheeled, weighted cart). As often happens in a room full of IT geeks with too much caffiene and not enough sleep, the idea quickly took shape and spiraled out of control.

The result… is this. … Read more

...And Little E Makes 3 Funny Stuff

Leaves…ATTACK!

Today on the drive to school, it seemed like every other tree we passed unloaded all of its leaves on us at once. I got Little E giggling by saying “Leaves! ATTACK!” in a silly voice every time this happened.

After I dropped him off at school and went to work, I had a little bit of downtime while waiting patiently for software to install, and doodled this for him on half a sheet of paper. I then folded the paper over and addressed the “outside”…

Waiter, I’d like a breakfast that can ward off evil

This means somethingLittle E was showing me a comic book he wrote and drew today – man, where does he get that? Anyway, he was narrating the whole thing to me, and it got more bizarre, because there was a magical omelet that was sending evil creatures back to the nether world, and man, if the heroine of his story (that’s an interesting choice) lost that omelet, she was in deep trouble, and…

“Buddy?”

“Yeah, dad?”

“How are you spelling omelet? Does it start with an O? As in the breakfast made with eggs?”

“No, dad.”

“Is it an amulet?” (and I spelled it out)

“Yes!” He seemed amazed that I had guessed it.

“Whew,” I said, relieved. “Now the whole story makes sense!”

Although I will admit, an omelet that can ward off evil sounds pretty good right about now.… Read more

Ladies and gentlemen, keyborads. Does what it says on the box.

Keyborads

Gotta love it when someone basically hand-writes a typo. I wanted to scribble “teh” out to the left.

Overheard last night at Subway while I was waiting for the toaster oven to finish toastin’ up sammiches for Little E and me…

Customer: I want… can I just get an eight-inch sub?
Sandwich Artist™: An…eight inch sub?
Customer: I want more than a six inch sub but I don’t need a footlong.
Sandwich Artist™: We don’t have an eight inch sub.
Customer: How many inches have you got?
Bald fat guy who’s exhausted beyond any ability to edit his own responses: *snickers loudly*

(Deathly silence as Customer and Sandwich Artist™ stare down bald fat guy who’s exhausted beyond any ability to edit his own responses)

As they say in that one episode of South Park, “IT WAS FUNNY!“… Read more
