Crotchley Labs

Thursday, April 05, 2007 - 12:21 AM

I'm going back to the well and revisiting Crotchley Labs for a second day. I had too much fun to do it just once.

There's something so wonderfully absurb about 1950's short-film propaganda. They pretty much consisted of what I like to call the three "B's": "Build it! Buy It! And beat back the Reds!"

***

On a different note, a doff of the cap to Unshelved for Wednesday's toon. That's been my favorite of theirs thus far.
