I'd use this as my profile pic, except…

…it's too unrealistic. In real life, the Trophy Wife™ would be carrying me.

If not, Minnesota Stories has a short interview with PZ Myers, taped last year. It's too bad the camera didn't pan to my left a little bit, because my Trophy Wife™ was sitting right next to me the whole time, and she would have been much more restful on the eyes.
Thanks to Pamela Turner for sending me a box of TCHO chocolates — they're fabulous. My one concern is that I'm about to leave town for a day, and this box of temptations is sitting out on the dining room table where the Trophy Wife™ and the Trophy Daughter™ and even one of the Trophy Sons™ (who is…
The Trophy Wife™ and I are on our way to Oslo and Copenhagen. It's not exactly a holiday for me — I'm voyaging to exotic locales so I can sit in hotel rooms hunched over my laptop. Expect the blog to be a bit light and fluffy this week.
It's true! The Trophy Wife™ and I never got our temple recommends, weren't sealed, and didn't go through the temple ceremony (which sounds like so much fun), so when the Mormons get their way, our marriage will be invalidated, and I'll be reduced to bragging about my Trophy Concubine™.

In real life, the Trophy Wife™ would be carrying me.

That's right, your back is dicey at best thanks to the creator/intelligent designer...

Cthulu manga porn? I there no depth of depravity that pharingulistas won't sink to?

Click on it for a link. I could even buy a print to hang on the wall! Which my wife would regard with the horror reserved for The Lamp in A Christmas Story.

I like this, which is somewhat disturbing.

One's private responses to such things are never disturbing, they merely are:))

I should like to be carried out of the sea thus by such a strapping gent. . . dunno if I need the tentacles though. Oh hell, throw 'em in, I've got wasabi mayo in the fridge.

The octopus is helping to rescue the damsel in distress, right?Or have I somehow missed the point?

By the way there is some rib-tickling creationist-bashing http://huff.to/c316Bo on Huffington Post

The comments on dA are hilarious, particularly the thread started by PinkieNekoGirl (spelling/grammar errors aside):

"The only thing that could make this picture even cooler is either a gigantic explosion in the background or a school of sharks fighting to the death."

"sharks with lazors against killerdolphins @w@"

"Now that's just plain badass."

"not as badass as chuck norris :P"

"On a flaming motorbike, giving roundhouse kicks with it."

"while using five uzis, one with each hand, one with each food and one kept up in the air with roundhouskicks spraying pullets around"

You know you're a lucha geek when the first thing you think is "Damn, that's a cool pic of Atlantis".

Heh - the cute octopod looks a bit snoozy - must have been a long day of damsel-saving.

Awesome.

I can't draw my way out of a wet paper bag. That said, I get to look at drawings as much as anybody with artistic talent ...

How come her drawers hang down like that?

This person can obviously draw, in the style of comic book characters, which I like.

The bustier part seems to be made of spandex, but the drawers of wet cotton. There's a point I'm missing.

The octopus looks eye-rollingly bored.

Methinks a Frazetta-infusion would be much better but don't think there are a lot of cephalopods to be found.

But the octopus doesn't look that fearsome.

Well, for obvious reasons you can't be "El Santo" or "Blue Demon". Hmmm...

Setup an account over there, and make a wishlist. Then we don't have to dig up your business address to send you stuff.

The trphy wife would be carrying you? My trophy wife would be using a wheel barrow

One hopes not, because the man of no fashion sense is obviously more concerned with whatever's in front of them than with the giant octopus (which looks bored with the whole exercise).
