On July 27th the Sweetman family was involved in a serious car accident on I-95 that threw the son and mother from the vehicle, leaving the son critically injured. Raistlin Sweetman is currently in a coma and has a long way to go—at least a year and a half of recovery. Friends and family are quickly gathering to raise money to help pay for the procedures needed as well as basic living.
A Beef and Beer is being organized to raise funds. Captain Blue Hen Comics is selling tickets and accepting donations for the Sweetman family. Cash donations are welcome and there is also a need for items for the raffles and silent auction. (more…)

An excerpt from Kita’s world-famous site Pass The Sushi
This action-packed and fun-filled weekend was brought to me by the city of Baltimore. Well, sort of. There was a comic book convention I went to for work and I got to walk around looking at spiffy artwork and people in spandex.
It is fun to walk around and see everything. Lots of ‘names’ in the business were there mixing it up with some up-and-coming artists. I bought a couple of prints with the agreement that they would actual get to introduce themselves to a vertical surface and not just be stored away.
The pic of this little dude was my favorite find and if I wasn’t so broke, I’da handed that kid $2.
We also were on an adventure to try a new restaurant, one we spotted on Diners Drive Ins and Dives. We will have to try that one again, when it’s a little less nighttime, because I wasn’t aware that the place we were headed was in the parking lot of strip club. Didn’t catch that memo. I have heard that it is really good though, so when I feel safe leaving my car for more then 3 minutes, with a lot of sun light left in the day, we shall go back to try it. P.F. Changs 1 — Chaps 0.
