@Kradlum: Congrats. Joe is a good-looking freshly hatched baby human. Your wife has done quite well.
Hooray for the FreakCave! Beautiful art, of course.
As for Halloween; I'm at work. Didn't do anything good with my hair this year, either. Last night's jack-o-lanterns (pics in the election thread) were pretty much my only effort this year, sadly. I might get around to toasting the seeds tonight ....
I'm still trying to figure out what the apocalypse was. It can't just be melting the ice-caps because that wouldn't have even touched the biggest players in any post-apocalyptic scenario - the Swiss
Always enjoyed "end of the world" stories. I've never been to Whitechapel (haven't been in England since I was 10), but I'm guessing this WAS a busy mixed commercial district before the apocalypse?
And throwing in these great historical place references makes it even better... I love the artwork
