Pass the Cordrazine
I'm off to the Bay Area on bidness. While I'm gone, entertain yourselves by boldy going to Comics Oughta Be Fun, and reading this excellent post on Trek fotonovels from the '70s.
Smell you later.

Think Small
Mike Lynch posts another great find: this 1961 Volkswagen promotional brochure of cartoons featuring VW Beetles done by contemporary humorists Charles Addams, Gahan Wilson, William Steig, and my favorite, Virgil Partch (pictured above).

Gordon's Jet Flight
Gordon's Jet Flight, a children's book from 1961, took me back to a golden age of plane travel, when passengers in coach got to eat steak, kids were allowed to visit the pilots in their cockpit, and Homeland Security didn't give my teddy bear a cavity search.
I don't miss having to wear a blazer and tie though.
