Congratulations, Jon.

And, no, sadly, I wasn’t at this one; I was cruising at 36,000 feet en route to LAX, where I subsequently spent two hours searching for my missing luggage. Thirteen hours after pulling out of my driveway in the Boston area, I arrived at my hotel, only to discover that Jon Boy had pitched a gem. So, of course, I stayed up to make this here image. It is now 5 a.m. ET. Time for bed. Thanks, Jon. Great timing.

(P.S.: It might be time to mix in some more of those comic-strip type things; these Photoshop projects are a lot of work … which is why you haven’t seen any in a while. But does anyone want to see more of the comic-strip thingamajigs from me, or do they get a thumbs down? Please leave a comment below and let me know.)

This site don’t pay the bills, and baby needs a new pair of shoes, so I’ve had to prioritize. Hang in there, though; I’ll have something for you soon.

Meanwhile, at least the Sox have been winning, the starting pitching has been (mostly) stellar … and Papi & Manny went back-to-back last night:

  • Wakefield’s turn to pitch in as Sox blank Tigers
