• Apparently, there’s some View Askew fans at the Sobe company — The fine folk at Sobe include little sayings under the caps of their beverages, usually little pop culture references with a lizard spin on it. A recent cap spotted of their “Liz Blizz” Pina Colada flavored beverage read “Jay and Silent Lizard”.

• Here’s one of the best web comic appearances of Jay & Silent Bob we’ve ever seen — Jay and Bob are in today’s edition of “Shoot Me Now”. Prior to this episode, some of the main characters were lost at sea and wound up at the lost city of Atlantis. The Atlantians are kinda like fish people. “Chuck” gets thrown into an arena to fight a monster which is basically a shameless rip-off of the Rancor in Return of the Jedi. In this strip, Jay and Bob (as Atlantians) take their turns fighting. This comic is well written and well drawn, don’t miss it!

• Finally today, we’ve been receiving tons of e-mails from folks celebrating the announcement of the 37 cent stamp here in the US – So we figured we’d finally give it a mention.
