Work, work, work...

I had a rather bland day at work today, but I always think about things while I'm there.

Two things came to mind: One being Elephantmen, one of the greatest pieces of science fiction I've ever read (besides Transmetropolitian of course.) And the second being people who smoke.

I can't really put into words how much I love Elephantmen. Its astounding, I didn't think I would be able to find something I loved as much as Warren Ellis's Transmetropolitian , but Elephantmen really did. It follows agency members "Hip" Flask and Ebony Hide as they uncover mystery's and try to escape their pasts as evil weapons for the MAPPO corporation. I'd highly recommend you go and pick this one up.

Okay, I know people have a right to smoke, (I don't) But I find it annoying as hell when I'm working the drivethru window, when some one drives through smoking a cigarette, and basically forcing me to inhale smoke from the cancer stick. I hate sounding like a dick, but this just bothers the hell out of me. I don't want second hand smoke, so why don't you guys do me a favor, and everyone else who doesn't smoke, and has a similar situation, please put your smoke out before you pull up to the window.

Here are some links you can follow for the Elephantmen website and where you can get Volume 1 of Elephantmen for pretty cheap.
