Bill Bickel is asking for advice. He posted a comment to “Gulls Gone Wild” yesterday, wanting suggestions about digital SLR cameras. Apparently, an offspring offed his existing camera, and he’s in the market for a new one. Might as well be an upgrade, right, Bill?

Bill Bickel has for many years maintained a Web site called “Comics I Don’t Understand.”  Readers send in comic strips that confuse them, and other readers discuss them. (Yes, you’ll see A&J well-represented there.) Bill also has converted to blogging software recently, and everyone seems to be having fun there, too. If you like comics, you should check out CIDU, as the regulars refer to it.
